Samsung Lions' new foreign pitcher Ariel Furado (29) showed perfect pitching in his own Cheongbaek match, raising expectations.토토사이트
Samsung had its own Cheongbaek match at Akama Stadium in Okinawa, Japan on Tuesday. The most outstanding player on the day was Furado. As the starting pitcher for the blue team, Furado pitched a scoreless game with only 16 pitches during two innings, tying the white team's batting lineup tightly.
On this day, Furado continued his stable pitching by working with catcher Kang Min-ho on the battery. Although the mound was not in good condition due to rain the previous day, he quickly adapted and displayed powerful pitching.
He overwhelmed hitters by using various pitches, including four-seam fastballs (three pitches), two-seam fastballs (two pitches), cutters (two pitches), sliders (four pitches), and change-up (five pitches). The maximum speed of his fastball was 142 km, which was not fast, but he effectively cooked the batters through slow control and accurate control.
The Blue team won by defeating the White team 8-5.
After the game, Furado said, "I pitched very well today. The rain that fell yesterday affected my mound condition, but I quickly adapted. I had no problem in targeting the strike zone," expressing confidence.
He then said, "I will put my body care first for the rest of the camp and prepare well for the season."
Furado made his KBO League debut with the Kiwoom Heroes in the 2023 season and performed outstandingly with 11 wins, 8 losses and an ERA of 2.65 in 183 ⅔ innings in 30 games.
During the 2024 season, he continued his career by recording 10-8 with an ERA of 3.36 in 190 ⅓ innings in 30 games. He has become one of the top pitchers in the KBO after serving as the team's first starter for two consecutive seasons.
Attention is focusing on whether Hurado, who signed a total of 1 million dollars (about 1.4 billion won) contract with Samsung this year, will be able to continue his stable pitching in Samsung's starting lineup.
