Wes Benjamin (30), a foreign starting pitcher for KT Wiz, a professional baseball team, performed brilliantly in baseball last fall.
His grades were good, but his attitude of sacrificing himself for the team was different. 온라인카지노
After resting two days after finishing his last starting game in the regular season last year, he pitched in the bullpen in the wild card game against the KIA Tigers, and after resting for three days again, he started in the semi-playoff (quasi-PO) game against Kiwoom Heroes.
Although KT's challenge stopped at Jun-PO, Benjamin's fighting spirit made the hearts of many baseball fans beat.
Wes Benjamin is determined to show the essence of fall baseball once again this year.
After completing personal training at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the afternoon of the 25th, He said, "I have completed all preparations for the postseason," and smiled, adding, "I don't know what role I will play this year, but I will perform the given duties well."
Regarding his physical condition, Benjamin said, "It's up to 100%. There were no problems with the bullpen pitch on the 23rd.
All preparations are complete."
Benjamin achieved good results in this year's regular season, with 15 wins, 6 losses, and an average ERA of 3.54, but his condition worsened and injuries occurred at the end of the season, raising concerns among those around him.
He complained of fatigue after the game against the KIA Tigers on the 22nd of last month, and in the game against the Samsung Lions on the 6th of this month, his first appearance in 14 days, he threw only 20 balls and was forced off early due to pain in his left arm.
Benjamin, who showed abnormal signs, was unable to pitch afterward.
I devoted myself to rest and recovery for about 20 days.
Benjamin responded to the concerns of those around him by saying, "There are no problems now," and emphasized, "I will enter this year's postseason in top physical condition."
Benjamin is an important 'key' to winning the Korean Series.
The pitcher kingdom KT has many starting resources such as Ko Young-pyo and William Cuevas, but there are few players who showed a strong performance against the LG Twins, who were ranked first in the regular season.
Ko Young-pyo performed poorly with an ERA of 7.36 in 4 regular season games against LG, and Cuevas also did poorly with an ERA of 11.45 in 3 games.
On the other hand, left-handed pitcher Benjamin achieved an outstanding ERA of 0.84 in 5 games against the LG lineup, which is full of left-handed hitters.
If KT advances to the Korean Series, Benjamin's role will become very important.
Benjamin said, "It is true that I am confident against LG, but now I have to focus on the playoffs.
I will not worry about the regular season performance and will focus on each game."
Meanwhile, regarding his former team, the Texas Rangers of Major League Baseball (MLB), advancing to the World Series (WS), Benjamin said, "I am proud and congratulated that the players I played with in the past have advanced to the WS," and added, "I hope they win."
Benjamin played in Texas from 2020 to 2021 and then wore the KT uniform as a substitute foreign player in 2022.
Benjamin appeared in 21 big league games in Texas, recording 2 wins, 3 losses, and an ERA of 6.80.
