Professional baseball KT Wiz's foreign starting pitcher Wes Benjamin, who was out of action at the end of the regular season due to left arm pain, threw the ball without a problem in the team evaluation game and revealed his prospects for the playoffs (PO).
Benjamin started the game against Blue and White held at KT Wiz Park in Suwon, Gyeonggi-do on the 26th and pitched three innings without allowing a run. The number of pitches was 49.
The highest speed of the fastball was 147 km/h, and the average speed was 145 km/h. There isn't much difference from the regular season. He also examined various breaking balls such as slider, cut fastball, changeup, and curve.
Benjamin performed well this year with 15 wins, 6 losses, and an average ERA of 3.54, but suffered from poor condition at the end of the season. In particular, he complained of extreme fatigue after the game against the KIA Tigers on the 22nd of last month, and after throwing only 20 balls on the 6th of this month against the Samsung Lions, he complained of pain in his left arm and quit early.
Afterwards, Benjamin devoted himself to rest and recovery for about 20 days to prepare for his postseason. It is a big positive news for KT that Benjamin has recovered his usual performance in Team Blue and White. Although the playoffs begin with the negative news of key hitter Kang Baek-ho's injury, Benjamin's recovery is expected to be a great help to the starting team.
