The oldest Korean big leaguer to win

Ryu Hyun-jin started the "2023 Major League Baseball" home game against the Chicago Cubs at Rogers Center in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on the 14th and became a winning pitcher with two runs (non- earned run) in five innings.
The "Korean Monster" announced a spectacular revival.

Ryu Hyun-jin (36, Toronto Blue Jays) became the winning pitcher in 444 days in the Major League Baseball (MLB). Ryu Hyun-jin, who returned to the big league mound after a 13-month hiatus, won a valuable victory in his third appearance.

Ryu Hyun-jin started the "2023 Major League Baseball (MLB)" home game against the Chicago Cubs at Rogers Center in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on the 14th, recording two hits, two walks and two runs (no earned run) in five innings.

Ryu Hyun-jin, who underwent elbow ligament surgery last year, won his first win (one loss) and 76 wins in his career in three games this year. It is all the more meaningful because it was a victory against the Cleveland Lions on the 5th right after being injured in the right knee by a ball.

He also rewrote the record of the oldest Korean big leaguer starting victory. Born on March 25, 1987, Ryu Hyun-jin started the big league at the age of 36 years, 4 months and 20 days. Earlier, Park Chan-ho had the record for the oldest starting win. Park Chan-ho won the starting game against the Los Angeles Dodgers on May 13, 2009, when he played for the Philadelphia Phillies. He was 35 years, 10 months and 13 days old.

In the game, Ryu Hyun-jin's control and change-up power shone. Ryu threw 86 (53 strikes). He recorded a maximum speed of 91.1 miles per hour (147 kilometers) and struck out all three.

Ryu Hyun-jin was on the verge of two outs and runners on first and second base in the top of the first inning due to a mistake by Toronto first baseman Brandon Belt. After that, he allowed two RBIs to Swanson, a two-run double, and gave up two runs. However, it was not recorded as Ryu Hyun-jin's earned run because it was a loss accompanied by a mistake.

Since then, no runs have been allowed. Ryu Hyun-jin, who blocked the second inning with three outs, hit a heavy hit by Nico Horner after one out in the third inning with a 5-2 lead. Toronto catcher Danny Jansen immediately caught Horner, who was trying to steal second base, at second base and overcame the crisis of losing a point.

Ryu Hyun-jin, who took the mound in the fifth inning with an 8-2 lead, blocked the inning with 14 pitches and came down the mound. Ryu Hyun-jin lowered his ERA from 4.00 to 2.57 this season. Toronto won 11-4 with Ryu Hyun-jin and 14 hits in the lineup. Toronto (66-54) is in third place in the American League East.

Toronto Blue Jays coach John Schneider paid tribute to Ryu's performance.

Coach Schneider said, "It's amazing that he's showing this at his age. It's never easy, and Ryu Hyun-jin is doing it very easily. Ryu Hyun-jin is a pitcher who knows very well how to throw the ball. He threw a really good ball," he praised. 스포츠토토
