Hanwha [Moon Dong-joo](https://19guide03.blog.ss-blog.jp/2023-10-27-1?1698370808) is delivering his acceptance speech after winning the Rookie Award at the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO Awards held at the Westin Chosun Hotel in Jung-gu, Seoul on the 27th.

Hanwha Eagles' next-generation ace Moon Dong-ju (20) won the 'Eagle Corps' rookie of the year award 17 years after Ryu Hyun-jin.

Moon Dong-ju won the Rookie of the Year Award at the KBO Awards Ceremony held at the Westin Chosun Seoul Grand Ballroom on the 27th. Moon Dong-ju was awarded a trophy and a prize of 3 million won.

Moon Dong-ju received 85 votes out of a total of 111 votes, beating 2nd place KIA Tigers Yoon Young-cheol (15 votes) and being honored with the award.

Second-year pitcher Moon Dong-ju started 23 games this year, pitched 118⅔ innings, and recorded 8 wins, 8 losses, and an [ERA](http://redleaflogic.biz/pukiwiki-1.4.7_notb/index.php?gostopsite3) of 3.72. Although he did not complete the required number of innings (144 innings) due to thorough management, he was evaluated as a step up from last year.

Moon Dong-ju, who has consistently maintained the starting rotation without any major injuries, [카지노사이트랭크](https://www.casinositerank.com/category/%eb%b0%94%ec%b9%b4%eb%9d%bc%ec%82%ac%ec%9d%b4%ed%8a%b8/) has established himself as an indispensable pitcher for Hanwha by ranking second in most wins and most innings on the team.

Although it is not a factor that determines the Rookie of the Year award, he contributed to winning a gold medal at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games where he wore the Taegeuk symbol, and also played an active role in the generational change in the recently concluded Asian Professional Baseball Championship (APBC).

Although he is only in his second year of debut, he met the requirements for the Rookie of the Year award by throwing only 28⅔ innings until last year, and his challenge for the Rookie of the Year award as a 'used rookie' this year paid off.

Moon Dong-joo's award is also a blessing to his team Hanwha. Hanwha produced its fourth rookie of the year, including Binggrae, 17 years after Ryu Hyun-jin. Prior to Moon Dong-ju, Lee Jeong-hoon (1987), Kim Tae-gyun (2001), and Ryu Hyun-jin (2006) received the honor of Rookie of the Year.

After receiving the award, [Moon Dong-ju](http://cse.google.ac/url?sa=i&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gostopsite.com%2F) said, “I will bear the weight of the trophy well. “I will throw hard next year with the thought that the team will go to a higher place,” he said.
