Wow~ God Wells, what an amazing performance..
He completely dominated through 8 innings with just 1 hit allowed, and personally I think putting Yoo Young-chan in for the 9th was a great choice..
Wells only threw 84 pitches, but since Chirinos had to leave due to injury, tomorrow's Game 3 will have to be run as a bullpen day, so considering the now uncertain starting rotation going forward, it's better to save the starting pitchers..
Yoo Young-chan also wrapped things up nicely with his 11th save, and they won Game 2 without breaking a sweat, securing the winning series..
It looks like tomorrow's game will be handled with Lee Jung-yong + Park Si-won and others — if they can win while managing their effort level, that'd be great, and it would be nice to save the bullpen arms and prepare for the weekend series..
Knowing Hanwha's tendencies, the batters will likely swing very aggressively, so it would be great to take good advantage of that..
Regarding Chirinos, Manager Yum gave an interview with a nuance suggesting he might want to make a change..
Fortunately, Kim Yun-sik has been discharged from the military and returned, and Son Ju-young also seems to have started pitching, so it seems like the hole left by Chirinos in the rotation will somehow get filled.
"Wells, hurry up and call your brother and tell him to come to LG~"
