Im Chan-gyu had a break due to lower back muscle pain after the SSG Landers game on the 29th of last month.
With this win, Im Chan-gyu continued his winning streak and won four games in a row.
Im Chan-gyu said through the team, “Since it was my first game since returning, I focused on control more than anything else,” and added, “I’m not 100% physically fit yet, but I’m glad I was able to pitch five innings.”
He continued, “I felt very sorry to my teammates because I was promoted to the first team later than I thought.
He expressed his determination, saying, “I want to pitch for 6 or 7 innings in the future to help the team.”
He then said, “If I were to interview the MVP today, there was something I really wanted to say.”
He said, “There was Lee Ga-eul who had supported LG and me for over 10 years.
He had been battling stomach cancer for a long time and had not been seen since the Korean Series last year, so I was curious about his current status, and I heard that he passed away early this month,” he explained.
lm Chan-gyu said, “I would like to dedicate today’s victory to him and hope that it will provide some comfort to his bereaved family,” and “I want to tell them that I will never forget him.”
