Then, in the Samsung Lions and Futures game on the 8th, he took the mound in the bottom of the 9th inning with a 16-4 lead and finished the game with 1 hit and no runs in 1 inning. Jang Hyeon-shik was hit by pinch hitter An Joo-hyung after two outs, and Kim Ho-jae got on base due to a shortstop fly ball error and was driven to second out and first and third base, but Seo Joo-won turned shortstop grounder.
The number of pitches was 13, and the highest fastball speed was 146km, which is higher than the pitch (145km) on the 6th. He jumped from 138 km to 144 km in average speed. He threw 10 fastballs and 3 forkballs.
On the 7th, KIA coach Kim Jong-guk said of Jang Hyun-sik, “I have to test a little more. I plan to call up after seeing the situation after throwing more. If you do, you will have to rehabilitate, so you have to check more.”
