LG Twins Pitcher Lim Chan-kyu Dominates, Shares Humorous Remark

LG Twins pitcher Lim Chan-kyu achieved a significant milestone on August 26th, breaking an 8-year "NC jinx" by delivering a stellar performance against the NC Dinos. This victory propelled him to share the lead in the KBO League's win category.

Starting the game at Jamsil Stadium, Lim Chan-kyu pitched for six innings, throwing 105 pitches. He was exceptionally dominant, allowing only two hits, issuing two walks, and hitting one batter, while striking out four. Crucially, he did not concede any runs throughout his appearance.

This masterful outing secured his 12th win of the season, placing him in a tie for the league's most wins. The win marked a personal triumph over a long-standing opponent that had historically proven difficult for him.

Following his impressive performance, Lim Chan-kyu reportedly made a lighthearted remark, comparing himself to a major league ace. He humorously suggested that if his pitch velocity were reduced by just 20 km/h, he would be comparable to a pitcher named Miserawski.

If you take away just 20 km/h from my pitch speed, I'm the same as Miserawski.
