Veteran All-Star pitcher Aaron Nola (32), who has 104 wins in his Major League career, is in shock. He had his worst start by losing all four games of this season, only allowing two hits including a double to Lee Jung-hoo (27) of the San Francisco Giants.
Nola took the mound as a starter in the 2025 Major League Baseball's home game against San Francisco at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on the 17th (Korea Standard Time), and collapsed with nine hits, four walks, eight strikeouts and seven runs (six earned) in five ⅓ innings.
As the Philadelphia Phillies lost 4-11, Nola suffered its fourth loss in this season. Having lost all four games this season, Nola's ERA soared from 5.51 to 6.65. This is not appropriate for Nola, who boasts a career of 104 wins in 11 seasons with six double-digit wins.바카라
It was Lee`s second loss. When he met Lee in the first inning with runners on second and one out, Nola well hit a changeup on the third pitch, which was low outside off. It was a pitch that was in the zone, but Lee Jung-hoo didn`t miss it and hit it, leading to a hit to the right-center field. He had a timely hit that brought the runner on second base to his home ground, and thus scored the first run of the game on the day.
The US broadcaster of NBC Sports Bay Area said, "It was not a bad ball due to the low change-up outside. Nola threw the ball she wanted, but Lee followed the ball that fell low on the outside and hit it well. "The good ball gave me a better swing," he said.
Nola, who was shaken by consecutive hits, allowed four runs in the first inning alone. He wanted to find stability without allowing additional runs in the second to fourth innings, but gave up the fifth run after hitting a right double by Lee Jung-hoo and a timely hit to center field by Matt Chapman in the fifth inning.
Coming out in the absence of a runner with one out, Lee said, "The knuckle curve of the first pitch slightly deviated from the outer zone, but the decision was made for a strike. It could have been embarrassing, but he swung at the cutter that was high on Nola's second pitch. Nola worked corner walk from the outside to the body, but Lee did not miss the ball that was in the zone, leading to a full hit and a double that fell to the right side of the right field. It was Lee's 10th double of this season. It was the first double-digit moment in the entire Major League this year.
NBC Sports' Bay Area broadcaster said, "Lee Jung-hoo hit another double. It went a little high, but it wasn't a bad ball. However, Lee Jung-hoo responded well," he said, praising Lee Jung-hoo's contact, who hit the ball, not Nola's actual pitch, again this time.
Nola, whose two hits were hit by Lee Jung-hoo led to a run loss, took the mound in the sixth inning, but was substituted with two walks and one hit, causing a full base crisis with one out. He pitched 99 times in total.
According to "MLB.com ," Nola expressed frustration after the game by allowing a push walk for two consecutive games. Following the fifth inning against the St. Louis Cardinals on the 14th, he allowed a run with a push walk in the first inning. It is a small surprise with 2.36 walks per nine innings in his career, but this year it is the most in his career with 3.74.
Nola said, "I'm going crazy. It's unacceptable. I've had three walks in my career, and two of them have come in the last two games. I've given too many walks, and most of the runners who have done so have led to runs. I'm making it difficult for myself. Eight walks in the last two games is not good. I have to deal with it myself."
Nola's average four-seam fastball speed dropped from 91.3 miles (146.9 kilometers) per hour last year to 90.7 miles (146.0 kilometers) this year, but the difference is not that big. The problem lies in control of the ball. "Most of the time, I had control problems in the stretch position. I was good at first pitch strikes when I did wind-up, but when I entered the stretch, I had a lot of countdowns," Nola said. "My physical condition is in good shape. It is the worst start of my career so far, and I will put everything into it for the next game."
Philadelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson said that although he did well in April, he has shown good performance since then. He is a tenacious player, and he pitched 35 pitches in the first inning today, but pitched 81 pitches in the fifth inning to lead the team to the sixth inning. He did not trust him, saying that he is a player who knows how to hold on and fight regardless of his ball power.
