Ryu Hyun-jin made his second appearance against the minor league single-A team.
He pitched 37 pitches in four innings and pitched three hits and no walks.
The maximum speed was 142 kilometers, and 27 out of 37 balls scored strikes, showing off their sophisticated control.

With Choi Ji-man’s “multi-hit” performance, Pittsburgh beat Arizona 4-2.
