Dodgers Yamamoto struggles after being battered in two consecutive games
The light and dark sides of Yoshinobu Yamamoto (Los Angeles Dodgers) and Joe Musgrove (San Diego Padres), who are starting the second game of the MLB Seoul Series.
The two, who pitched in the last exhibition game side by side before boarding a charter flight to Seoul, received conflicting report cards.
Yamamoto started the game against the Seattle Mariners held at Camelback Ranch Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, USA on the 14th (Korean time) and allowed 8 hits and 4 runs in 4⅔ innings.
Although he struck out seven, the fact that he was hit in two consecutive games attracted even more attention.Yamamoto also gave up 6 hits and 3 walks and allowed 5 runs in 3 innings in the game against the Chicago White Sox on the 7th.
Yamamoto, who had pitched without giving up a run through the third inning, striking out three batters in a row in the first inning, struggled starting in the fourth inning when the batting order went around.
After hitting three hits in a row and causing a crisis, he allowed Ty Prince to hit a timely hit to left with two RBIs.
Even after barely closing the 4th inning with 2 runs, he got hit by a hit in the 5th inning, sent runners to 2nd and 3rd base with a wild pitch, and then collapsed after being hit by Mitch Garber's 2-RBI double to left.
Yamamoto's ERA soared to 8.38.
Yamamoto, who joined the Dodgers for $325 million over 12 years, the highest guaranteed salary for an MLB pitcher in history, will make his official debut in the regular league in Game 2 of the MLB Seoul Series against San Diego at Gocheok Stadium in Seoul at 7:05 p.m. on the 21st. do.
San Diego starting pitcher Musgrove
Unlike Yamamoto, Musgrove took the mound in the game against the Oakland Athletics at Peoria Stadium in Arizona and pitched comfortably, allowing one run and two walks and two hits in 4⅓ innings.
Musgrove pitched without any major trouble until the 4th inning, and passed the baton to Luis Patiño in the 5th inning with 1 out and 2nd base when manager Mike Silt replaced a large number of players.
Patiño hit two timely hits in a row and scored two runs, and Musgrove, who pitched the ball with a runner on base, also recorded one earned run.
After the game today, the Dodgers and San Diego will arrive at Incheon Airport on the 15th via a chartered plane and begin jet lag adaptation training at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul starting on the 16th.
The starting pitchers for Game 1 of the Seoul Series on the 20th are Tyler Glasnow (Dodgers) and Yu Darubish (San Diego). 스포츠토토맨
