The cause of Kiwoom's new foreign ace Kenny Rosenberg's poor opening game has been revealed.

He was so nervous. Rosenberg started the game against the Samsung Lions on Tuesday and lost the game by allowing eight hits and eight runs in three innings. As Rosenberg collapsed early on, his team lost the game 5-on-13.

It was an unexpected slump. Rosenberg is a new left-handed foreign pitcher who showed stable performance by allowing three runs (two earned runs) and an earned run average of 2.00 in nine innings in two exhibition games. His ball control and fastball rotation are good, and he has various breaking balls such as change-up sliders, making it difficult for batters to attack him. However, his first pitching was disappointing.
He failed to display his strengths, such as fastballs with many rotations and various breaking ball control. His fastball was flat and his breaking ball was not sharp. He failed to target the course he wanted. Why did he fall prey to Samsung's batters.

Samsung manager Park Jin-man also said, "I think we prepared well for the hitting part. As Rosenberg was so good at the exhibition game, our strategy was to increase the number of pitches and send him down quickly. But he hit so well. To be honest, I didn't expect that he would come down early as he hit so well." "We planned to increase the number of pitches as much as possible, and send him down quickly and target the bullpen, but we prepared so well that the game seemed to have been easy from the beginning," in complimenting batters.

Kiwoom manager Hong Won-ki also explained the reason before the game on the same day.

He said, "I think I was very nervous yesterday. I think I had a lot of thoughts from that point on because the ball I thought was an early strike was judged to be a ball. I should have made it a little simple on the mound, but I think it was rather poisonous to try to play the game only with a lot of thoughts and left and right. I have a regret that I want my pitches to be relaxed up and down, but when I came in this morning and talked about it, he said to himself, 'I was very nervous, and I was so busy that I couldn't remember what kind of pitches I played yesterday.' It might have been more so because it was the opening game and my family was here. After a little more time, I'm playing the feedback well on the field, so I think I'll definitely show a different side in the next game." 먹튀검증

The opening game was overwhelmed by the crowd of 24,000 Samsung fans in Daegu. It was too early to make a decision.

As a pitcher with many advantages, he can regain the sense of stability he showed before the season if he adjusts to the atmosphere while experiencing KBO. Kiwoom is looking forward to a rebound to a good scenario. As he is the only foreign pitcher in the team and is the first starter to lead the young starting lineup, he desperately needs fast stability.
