Koo Dae-seong said, “I can wear the Geelong Korea uniform again because coach Lee Byeong-gyu and the club gave me permission. I debuted on the professional stage in 1993, so I can fill 30 years with this appearance.”
He continued, “I continued to build my body so that I could throw about 130 km. I want to help the junior players who will run together, and I will throw as many innings as possible to help the team.”
Koo Dae-seong took the mound as the fourth pitcher after starting pitchers Kim Jin-wook, Yang Kyung-mo and Lee Tae-gyu in the 8th inning, who were trailing 0-7. The three previous pitchers gave up 11 walks, but Koo Dae-seong blocked one inning cleanly. It was accompanied by two strikeouts. The highest speed came up to 117 km. Although he fell short of his target, his skillful pitching stood out.
