Starting on the 5th, Toronto will begin a three-game away game against Oakland at the Oakland Coliseum in Oakland, California, USA. Among the selections for this three-game series announced by the club on the 4th, Ryu Hyun-jin was announced as the starter on the 7th, the last day.
Ryu Hyun-jin started the away game against Colorado on the 2nd and pitched well, allowing 2 runs in 5 innings. He will then take four days off before heading out to Auckland.
Ryu Hyun-jin, who underwent elbow ligament fusion surgery in June of last year, returned to action against Baltimore on August 2 after undergoing rehabilitation for over a year. Afterwards, they went to Cleveland on the 8th, Chicago Cubs on the 14th, Cincinnati on the 21st, Cleveland again on the 27th, and then played against Colorado on the 2nd. Ryu Hyun-jin, who has rested for more than five days after each appearance until now before starting his next appearance, will appear after only four days of rest for the first time in his seventh appearance since returning.
On the 2nd, Toronto began a six-game series in the West, playing three games each against Colorado and Oakland, teams in the West. At the beginning and end, Ryu Hyun-jin was selected as the starter. Since there are no rest days in between, the rotation schedule requires Ryu Hyun-jin to pitch after only four days of rest. It has been a month since he returned from injury after a long rehabilitation, and with the stability he has shown in the past six games, the club also seems to have put down any concerns or burden about the interval between appearances.
This is Ryu Hyun-jin’s second win of the season. Ryu Hyun-jin earned his first win against the Chicago Cubs on August 14, the third game of his return. Ryu Hyun-jin, who had won three games in a row after that, attempted to win four games in a row against Colorado on the 2nd. He overcame adverse conditions, including not only the mound environment but also an unfair decision that was criticized by public opinion, and pitched well, allowing 2 runs in 5 innings, receiving favorable reviews once again. However, he failed to win 4 times. Even though he came off the mound as a winning pitcher, he allowed the tying run from the bullpen.
Oakland, where Ryu Hyun-jin is once again challenging for his fourth win, is currently close to being the weakest team in the Major League. As of the 4th, they remained at 42 wins and 95 losses, with a winning percentage of 0.307, the lowest in the American League West Division, and the second lowest winning percentage among all 30 major league clubs after Kansas City (42 wins, 96 losses, 0.304). The team OPS (on-base percentage + slugging percentage) is 0.670, the lowest among 30 teams.
The starting opponent on this day was left-hander JP Sears. He has 6 wins, 3 losses, and an ERA of 3.86 this season.
