(Sports Seoul | Literature = Lee So -young) The reason why SSG can run the top league this season is a high mound. It is not possible to get it because it is blocked by stable pitching regardless of the place. The top pitcher Drew Anderson, 31, is the main character.
Anderson, who joined SSG as a replacement foreign player in 2024, has played an outstanding performance based on the fastball since his debut season. In his first year of joining, he scored 115.2 innings, 11 wins and 3 losses, and 3.89 ERAs, and 158 strikeouts. At that time, Anderson also wrote a new record of 100 strikeouts (65 innings) in the KBO League.
Anderson, who debuted for the second year of his debut this year, still boasts. He started 23 games this season and marked 8 wins and 6 losses and an average ERA of 2.31. Samjin is showing up to 191. In particular, Anderson is the third -largest ERA with the current pitchers. Strikeouts are second. It’s a terrible helmet.
In the second half, he slowed down slightly, but in the first half of the record, he solidified his position with 6-4 losses and an average ERA of 2.06. Until June, when it was rising for a long time, Hanwha Cody Phone (1.61) was pursued. This is how powerful Anderson’s helmet is.
But there is also a lot of burden behind it. Anderson has been playing the full season for the first time since his debut. Lee Sung -yong said, “Anderson has never threw a lot as a starter.”
Efforts and talents should be supported in excellent grades, but experience is also important. It can be learned, developed, and skillful through experience. Lee said, “If you had been digesting for a few years as a start, you would have created your own know -how.” “Didn’t you join in the middle of last year. I’ve been preparing well this year, but it’s hard to start full time.
It is true that the expectation is so high because it has been so good since the beginning. Recently, the ball has been shaken, such as shaking or offering a run, but Anderson’s ball is still heavy. sshong@sportsseoul.com
