Ko Hyo-joon took the mound in the top of the fourth inning with his team leading 4-1 in the first game of the Futures League's home game against the Goyang Heroes at Doosan Bears Park in Icheon on the 23rd, and took charge of one inning with two strikeouts without hits and no runs.
Ko handled the first batter Kim Woong-bin with a swing and miss strikeout, and gave a strikeout to the next batter Lim Byung-wook as well. He then caught Lee Hyung-jong with a fly ball to the left field to finish his first appearance at Doosan.
Ko Hyo-joon, who was released from SSG Landers in October last year, dreamed of extending his active career through personal training. Doosan called Ko Hyo-joon to Icheon to conduct a trial on the 11th and 16th, and signed a contract for a total of 100 million won (80 million won per year, 20 million won in option).
Ko started his professional career by joining the Lotte Giants in 2002, and posted an ERA of 5.27 with 47 wins, 54 losses, four saves and 56 holds in 601 games in the first division until last year. He successfully re-entered the professional arena by throwing up to 147 kilometers per hour during the try-out period.
Ko Hyo-joon, who is currently a nurturing player, is expected to be converted to an official player as early as May 1 and take the first-team stage.
