Ryu Hyun-jin of the Toronto Blue Jays will start against the메이저놀이터 Boston Red Sox in the early morning of the 18th.
Ryu Hyun-jin, who takes the mound after a four-day break, is scheduled to play in the final game of Game 3 against Boston. The Toronto Blue Jays are currently in fierce wild card competition with the Seattle Mariners and Texas Rangers, but lost all four games in a row against the Texas Rangers. Attention is being paid to whether Ryu Hyun-jin can revive the spark of hope for a wild card by winning his first and last match against Boston’s batting lineup this season.
Ryu Hyun-jin started on the mound against the Texas Rangers on the 13th and had a starting matchup with Max Scherzer, attracting the attention of baseball fans at home and abroad. At that time, Ryu Hyun-jin went 6 innings for the first time since returning from injury, and recorded his first quality start of the season with 5 hits, 3 runs, and 5 strikeouts. However, on this day, Toronto’s batting lineup was unable to score a single run in 6 innings, which was disappointing in terms of scoring support. On this day, Toronto’s batters made the score in the 7th and 9th innings, but it was not enough to overturn the 3-point difference. Despite achieving a quality start, Ryu Hyun-jin unfortunately swallowed the disappointment of missing two consecutive wins following the game against Oakland Athletics on the 7th.
Ryu Hyun-jin’s next opponent is the Boston Red Sox of the American League East Division. Ryu Hyun-jin has started 6 games against Boston in his major league career, recording 2 wins, 2 losses, and an ERA of 4.01. Ryu Hyun-jin’s two wins against Boston were both recorded in 2021. His first win against Boston was in May 2021, when he became the winning pitcher with 4 hits and 7 strikeouts in 7 innings, and about two months later, he earned his second win with 2 hits and 5 strikeouts in 6 innings. Currently, the Boston Red Sox are ranked 3rd in batting average among all major league teams and 2nd in the American League.
