Foreign pitchers who joined the Doosan Bears' Sydney Spring Camp in Australia are also improving their physical condition to the fullest.

According to Doosan officials, a total of 10 pitchers, including Flexen and Tamura in the morning of the 14th (local time), and Choi Won-joon and Kim Taek-yeon in the afternoon, participated in live pitching.

As in the previous day (13th), all fielders, including Yang Eui-ji and Park Chan-ho, entered the batter's box in the morning and afternoon groups in turn.

Flexen threw a total of 31 balls. The maximum speed of the fastball was 152km. Curves, cutters, changeups, etc. were checked.

Tamura threw a total of 19 balls. The maximum speed of the fastball was 148 kilometers. He used curves, sliders, and folk balls.

Flexen said through the Doosan club, "It's been a long time since I've faced a batter, and I'm satisfied with everything, including speed and control. I felt like I was putting in a little bit of strength at the beginning of live pitching, but I soon threw the ball into my pitching rhythm. The body is being built very well so far. It is thanks to a lot of help in the training part and the interpretation part. The first training camp is almost over, so I'll finish it well and move on to Japan," he said.

Tamura said, "The pitching form that I cared about during the Sydney camp came out well. There were also many balls that were well controlled. In particular, the last three fastballs went exactly to the course I wanted, so I'm satisfied," he said.

"Now we are about to move to Miyazaki, Japan, which is a familiar environment. You will face Korean batters in earnest, and I will definitely establish what kind of ball combination it will be effective to take with my ball. The goal is to improve accuracy by refining control in more detail during the rest of the camp," he said, renewing his determination.
