The NC Dinos ace leads pitching categories in the Korea Broadcast Organization. One of the stats that Koo Chang-mo is proud of is the number of innings pitched. The left-hander has been throwing many innings this season. As a result, he helped ease the burden on his team’s bullpen.

He threw seven innings against the SK Wyverns to help the team win its eighth game in a row for the season. In 11 starts, he pitched 73 innings. KT Wiz Odrisamer Despaigne also pitched 73 innings. However, he had one more start than the Dinos ace.

If he maintains his current pace, Koo will shatter his former career-high of 133 innings he set in 2018. During that time, he split his time as a starter and playing out of the bullpen. He said that pitching many innings per game gives him an advantage over pitchers.
