Paul Skins, a ‘top prospect’ wearing a Pittsburgh Pirates uniform with a major league rookie contract fee ‘New History’, made a splendid debut match.

‘MLB.com’ reported on the 11th (hereinafter Korean time), “The Pittsburgh Pirates Paul Skins, who were selected as the first overall pick in the 2023 Major League Baseball Draft, made their first appearance.” He was truly a jaw-dropping pitcher.

Skins was selected by Pittsburgh with the first overall pick in the major league rookie draft held on the 10th of last month. The biggest reason why Skins was able to receive the overall 1st pick is because of his talent for throwing a fast ball of 102 miles (approximately 164.2 km). Skins’ average velocity was 98 mph, and he scored a perfect 80 on his fastball on the MLB Pipeline’s 20-80 scale.

At the time, ‘MLB.com’ reported the news of Skins’ overall first pick and said, “Skins is the best pitcher in college since Stephen Strasburg (Washington). Skins’ performance in college reminds me of Strasburg. Strasburg and Likewise, Skens throws an overwhelming triple-digit fastball (over 100 mph) and slider.”

Grades in college are overwhelming. Skins appeared in 19 games this year and showed the potential of striking out 209 while playing 122⅔ innings, and was active with an average ERA of 1.69 with 12 wins and 2 losses. Skins’ attractive point is not only its ‘fire bowler’ ability. Skins is also a player capable of the ‘double sword’.

Skins played in 52 games as a hitter this year, recording 13 homers, 38 RBIs, and a batting average of 0.314. In particular, he achieved the feat of 10-10 home runs as a ‘first’ in the American Collegiate League, and stood at the forefront of the University of Louisiana’s Collegiate League World Series championship.

As much as he possesses ‘special talent’, he also has a huge down payment. The Skins received $9.2 million from Pittsburgh (approximately 12.1 billion won), which surpassed the $8,416,300 (approximately 11.1 billion won) received by Spencer Torkelson (Detroit Tigers), who was the first overall pick in the 2020 rookie draft, and was the first rookie in major league history. Reached the maximum contract amount.메이저사이트

Skins, who joined Tsburgh, blocked one inning with a three-way strike in a confrontation with the ‘Rookie League’ FCL Twins held at the Pirates City Complex in Florida on the 11th. In the process of throwing a total of 11 pitches, Skins used 10 of them as fastballs, and showed off good control to the extent that 8 of the 11 pitches landed in the strike zone.

Redemption was overwhelming. Skins’ highest speed on this day marked 101 miles (approximately 162.5 km). Skins staged a show of force by throwing 7 fastballs over 100 miles fastball, recording 4 balls at 101 miles, 3 balls at 100 miles (about 161 km), and 3 balls at 99 miles (about 159.3 km). It was a glimpse into why Pittsburgh had the best contract ever.

On this day, Skins finished the game without participating in the ‘batter’ game. It remains to be seen whether Skins, who made his strong debut, will grow into a ‘double sword’ in the minor leagues as he did in college, or whether he will only hone his talent as a pitcher.

A new face appeared in the dugout of the Samsung Lions team having an away match against SSG Landers in Incheon. He was such a stranger that I had to think about who he was for a moment.

Starting on the 11th, Samsung will have a 3-game match against SSG at SSG Landers Field in Incheon.

Samsung released Suarez, a foreign pitcher who left due to injury on the 10th, and recruited Taylor Widener, who was announced as a waiver from the NC Dinos.

Widener was released from NC, but less than a week later, he received a recruitment offer from Samsung and succeeded in re-employment.

Widener moved from NC to Samsung in his debut season in the KBO League and wrote the second baseball story in the KBO League.

Widener cut off his trademark mustache and appeared in the Samsung squad. Even his hair was cut short, and it looked like it was about to be planted.

With his mustache gone, Widener looked like a brand new foreign player. He looked more friendly when his impressive mustache was gone.

Widener learned the new team atmosphere by watching games with his newfound teammates.

Did he even cut off his cherished beard to change the mood?

Foreign pitcher Taylor Widener transferred from NC to Samsung.

A widener who appeared with her hair cut short.

Widener will receive $220,000 from Samsung if he fills all the remaining days of registration out of the annual salary of about $600,000 contracted with NC.

Widener pitched 61.2 innings in 11 appearances wearing an NC uniform this season, recording an average ERA of 4.52 with 4 wins and 2 losses. He is disappointing for a foreign pitcher. However, just before leaving NC, the last two games were impressive, with 2 runs in 6 innings against KT on July 28 and 1 run in 7 innings against Lotte on August 3.

Widener, who moved to Samsung, joined the Samsung team for an away game in Incheon on the 11th. He wore a Lions uniform and even finished a profile photo shoot. His uniform number changed from the number 27 he wore in NC to number 57.안전놀이터

A foreign player changed his uniform mid-season in his first year in the KBO League.

He may have had a big goal by entering Korean professional baseball, but he could not achieve that dream due to injuries and sluggishness in NC. However, after recovering from his injury, he also showed a gradual adaptation to the KBO league.

Widener had twists and turns when he moved teams during the season, but he took on a new challenge at Samsung.

Samsung unfortunately let go of Albert Suarez, who had been devoted for the past two years, and recruited Widener.

Samsung chose to say goodbye to Suarez, whom fans loved, but announced that they would fight all-out until the end of the season by recruiting Widener.

Samsung won the match against SSG on the 11th with a good feeling. The team atmosphere is not bad with 4 wins and 2 losses in recent matches.

Head coach Park Jin-man predicted that Widener would be able to start in the last Sunday match against SSG in a weekend three-game series.

A mixed martial arts atomweight showdown between former women’s kickboxing star So Yul Kim, 26, and a top-ranked European judoka will be presented by Asia’s largest organization, ONE Championship.

ONE Friday Fights 28 will take place on August 11 at Lumpini Stadium (capacity 5,000) in Bangkok, Thailand. Kim will face 2012 European Judo Union (EJU) Under-17 Women’s -44kg silver medalist Noelle Grandjean (27-FR) in the opening bout.

ONE Friday Fights is a brand launched by ONE Championships in Thailand in January 2023. It centers around Muay Thai, with kickboxing and mixed martial arts added to the mix, on Fridays at the iconic Lumpini Stadium.온라인바카라

Kim will look to make it two wins in a row in his ONE Championship mixed martial arts debut, riding the momentum of his victory over former K-1 -52kg title challenger Suris Manfredi (35-France) at ONE Friday Fights 7 in March of this year.

Manfredi is also the 2020 La Thu Hae (Myanmar Boxing) World Championships -53.5 kg champion. The mixed martial arts ranking system Fight Matrix ranks her as the 12th best women’s atomweight in the world after her win over the world-class kickboxer.

In the first bout of the original championship in October 2022, she knocked out Lee Vivins (21-USA), the winner of the International Mixed Martial Arts Federation (IMMAF)-World Mixed Martial Arts Association (WMMAA) Under-17 Women’s Atomweight Championship.

Kim stopped Manfredi at 4:12 of the first round and Grandjean stopped Bivins at 4:01 of the first round. It will be interesting to see which of the two female fighters will be able to complete a winning streak in ONE Championship Mixed Martial Arts.

Coming into ONE Championship, Kim So-yul has gained experience in mixed martial arts, including wins at JUST Challenge in Macau in 2017 and Shooto in Japan in 2022, a 3-1 record in the ONE Warrior Series in 2018 and 2019, and the South Korean “DOUBLE G” atomweight champion in 2021.

The ONE Warrior Series is a reality program produced by ONE Championship to discover promising martial arts talent. Kim also has striking skills, going 6-1 in Korean kickboxing organization Max FC from 2016-2018.

European judo powerhouse Grandjang won his ONE Championship debut by punching TKO, while kickboxer Kim So-ryul won with a submission technique called ‘guillotine choke’, showing his maturity as a mixed martial artist. This means that you shouldn’t just think of Kim Soyul as a grappler and Grand Jang as a striker.

“We tasted a different kind of baseball.”

The Korea Women’s National Baseball Team played the United States National Team in the second game of the Women’s Baseball World Cup 2024 (WBSC) Qualifier in Thunder Bay, Canada, on Tuesday (June 10). The team dropped a cold opener to the U.S., 0-14, after allowing 13 hits in the first two innings.

After the game, outfielder Ahn Soo-ji said, “The Americans hit really well, and I got to taste a different kind of baseball.”체스카지노

Ahn Su-ji, who started the game at first base and left field, stayed in front of the fence throughout the game to catch the hard-hitting Americans’ balls. “I stuck to the fence to catch it, but the ball had already gone over the fence,” Ahn laughed.

On the day, Ahn hit one home run to the left field fence where she was standing, one double that hit the ground and went over the fence, and one double that went directly over the fence. Ashton Rensdell’s solo home run in the top of the third inning, which Ahn chased down to catch, was said to have gone over 110 meters, the official stadium distance.

Ahn went 1-for-2 on the day. The team has collected seven extra-base hits in the last two games, two of which were long balls. In the third inning against the U.S., Ahn lined a clean single to left field off Baum with one out. “I was able to hit the ball thanks to my fastball drills. It felt really good,” said Ahn, adding, “The American players’ pitches were really fast and good, but I saw the timing of the fastball and took aim.”

Kim Hae-ri, who started at first base in the sixth spot on the lineup, also played well offensively for the Americans. She caught several infield flies and went 1-for-1 with a walk and a hit by pitch.

“They were throwing fastballs, so I tried to take them and hit them without a leg kick, and that’s what I’ve been practicing since I started training,” Kim said. “Definitely, their ball is different from Hong Kong’s ball. They have a good end to the ball, and they throw changeups freely, so I went in looking for a fastball and got a hit in my first at-bat, and the left-hander in the second at-bat only threw me a changeup.”

“Yesterday, we lost to Hong Kong, and we were devastated. Everyone was devastated. It felt like we got off on the wrong foot. It’s not going to be an easy match against the U.S., but we said to ourselves, ‘Let’s try hard and do everything we can. Luckily, we made fewer mistakes today and didn’t play too badly.”

The team performed better than the previous day, committing only two errors and scoring one run in the second and third innings against the top-ranked U.S. team. The U.S. brought outfielders Kelcia Whitmore, the first woman to sign a minor league contract in the U.S., Olivia Pizzardo, the first woman to play D1 collegiately in the U.S., and “Aces” Ashton Rensdell and Alex Hugo to Korea.

The team stood tall against them and held their own. After turning things around against the USA, the team will play their third game of the preliminary round against Australia at 12:30 a.m. ET on Nov. 11.

Will there be a ‘young home run king’ for the first time in a long time? Noh Shi-hwan, a ‘2000-born big hitter’, hit three home runs in one game yesterday (Sept. 9) and is leading the league in home runs, but how did he do it?

Onnuri reporter.

[Reporter]

Noh Si-hwan hit a grand slam over the left field fence in the first inning, then hit another grand slam over the left field fence in the third inning, and then hit another solo home run over the center field fence in the eighth inning.

[Noh Si Hwan/Han Hwa: I hit my first three home runs when I came to the pros and now I’m leading the league in home runs, so I feel good that the direction or plan I made this season is working].

After gradually increasing his home run count since his debut in 2019, Noh struggled with six home runs last year after changing his batting form, but this year he reverted to his batting form and focused on hitting the long ball.카지노

[Noh Shi-hwan/Hanhwa: I think I made the biggest change in timing and hitting point, with a swing that is shorter in the back and a little longer in the front].

His unique kneeling stance is also a fan favorite.

[Noh Si Hwan/Han Hwa : I think it comes out when I’m properly powered up, so thank you for calling it a signature pose and I hope I can please the fans a lot with the pose].

With a five-run gap to the second-place finisher, Noh’s chances of becoming a home run king grow.

In Korean baseball, the “20-year-old home run king” was introduced seven years ago, and only Lee Seung-yeop and Jang Jong-hoon became home run kings before the age of twenty-three like Noh Si-hwan.

The last home run king from Hanwha was Kim Tae-gyun in 2008.

KT Wiz, the hottest team in recent years, is expected to be put on the brakes. Injuries to their main hitters look serious.

After languishing at the bottom of the standings at the start of the season, with a win-loss margin of -14, KT made a sharp turnaround in June. They went 33-15 with a winning percentage of 0.688 and climbed up the standings.온라인카지노

July was just as good. They swept their way to 13 wins in 19 games to climb to fifth place, and then swept their way up to third place with a winning series against Hanwha on the 8th and 9th, bringing their win-loss margin to +7. This is the seventh consecutive winning series.

The problem is the next game. Park Byung-ho and Alford were injured in the 9th game. It was a red flag for the offense.

In the bottom of the fourth inning, down 1-5, Byung-ho Park hit a double down the first base line. He felt pain in his calf as he made the contact.

He didn’t go down immediately. While Jang Sung-woo struck out swinging, Hanwha catcher Choi Jae-hoon dropped the ball behind him. This allowed third baseman Hwang Jae-gyun to score, and Park Byung-ho to advance to third base.

Park Byung-ho then signaled for a substitution. He was replaced by pinch-hitter Moon Sang-chul.

“I think I felt something in my calf while batting,” said Lee Kang-chul, who met with Park after the game was canceled due to rain on the 10th, “I hope it’s not a big injury. He’s been hitting well lately,” Lee said, adding, “I’m worried.

According to KT officials, Park Byung-ho traveled to Seoul today for an MRI examination.

Alford is also not doing well. He was injured in the following situation. After Jang Sung-woo singled with one out, Alford stepped to the plate and was hit by a hard fastball from Hanwha starter Felix Peña. He winced in pain for a moment, but walked to first base.

Alford then advanced to third on grounders by Kim Sang-soo and Oh Yoon-seok, but as he tried to round home on a double steal, he bumped into Choi Jae-hoon’s knee and injured his left wrist. A video review overturned the out, but Alford was replaced on defense in the top of the fifth inning.

“We’ll have to see how he is tomorrow,” Lee said.

Unlike Park Byung-ho, Alford did not undergo a medical examination. It doesn’t appear to be a major injury.

The Korea Professional Football Federation (KFA) has recently been disclosing data to find hidden charms of soccer in addition to quantified data such as goals and assists. One of them is packing. 

The packing index is an indicator of the efficiency of a pass. When a pass reaches a teammate, it refers to the number of opponents knocked out by that pass. This is why there are many names of defenders at the top of the packing (pass) index. 

Defenders are more likely to attempt mid-to-long passes than their predecessors. The longer the distance, the more players it beats. The packing (pass) index can be an indicator that guides you to enjoy the game from such a variety of perspectives. The K-League Packing Index is ranked based on the total number of packings.

The K-League collects this packing index on a monthly basis, and in July, Grant, who led the run of the ‘Squadron Strike Team’, was dazzling. According to the accumulated K League 1 packing (pass) data for the month of July, Pohang defender Grant’s forward play stood out. 

Grant played full-time in five K-League 1 games held in July. He tried 328 passes and saw the effect of passing 497 players. The average packing per game was 1.52. With effective attacks starting from the rear, Pohang is currently running second in the K-League 1.

While Grant took the lead, it was confirmed that Gwangju’s Timo and Seoul’s Osmar were also players with high passing efficiency. Timo passed 462 with 337 passes. Osmar completed 339 passes. With this pass, he beat 422 people. Following them, Lee Yong (Suwon FC, Packing 413) and Ki Sung-yong (Seoul, Packing 392) entered the ‘TOP 5’.

In addition to packing, Grant has an influence on the entire ground unlike a defender who is his main job. He roams freely from end to end of the goalpost. He is also the starting point of the build-up that presses the opponent by raising the line and supports counterattacks. In stoppage situations such as corner kicks or free kicks, he may directly penetrate into the opponent’s box and aim for a goal. In July, he scored two goals. Both goals were finished with headers from the team’s corner kick situation.

Grant’s forward play stood out in both action and pass length. In terms of activity, it ranked first in packing (packing 364) in the midfield area. He actively supported the team by stepping up. In the defensive area, he ranked second in packing (packing 119). What is interesting is that fellow defender Park Seung-wook (packing 121) ranks first in the defensive area packing. This is the part where you can check out the efficiency of pohang’s counterattack that stretches from the rear to the front.

In terms of the length of the pass, he showed strength in the mid-to-long distance. Grant ranked first in packing for long passes (over 30m). He succeeded in 45 passes and saw the effect of passing 166 people. In the mid-distance pass (15m~30m), he ranked second in packing (packing 205) after Osmar. It means that Grant’s pass, sent from the defensive area or midfield to the front, boasts a high accuracy.

There is another name that stands out when everyone is paying attention to Grant. This is Ki Sung-yong from Seoul. Ki Sung-yong, who ranked 5th overall in packing, was the player with the highest passing efficiency, especially in the final third (attack area). Ki Sung-yong made 59 successful passes in the attack area. With this pass, he outplayed as many as 109 players.

Ki Sung-yueng is a player who mainly stays in the back of midfield and in the defensive area. The mere fact that he entered the attacking area has the effect of putting pressure on his opponent. It means that he shook the opponent by adding an accurate pass.안전놀이터

It is also significant that a large number of Seoul players are included in the offensive zone rankings. In addition to Ki Sung-yong, Osmar (attack area packing 82) and Palosevich (attack area packing 77) were named in the 3rd and 4th places. These are the ones who increased the efficiency of the ‘Iksu Ball’, which puts pressure on the opponent by raising the line and releases it with a pass. 

Meanwhile, in K-League 2, Bucheon midfielder Kaz took first place in the overall packing index.

Kaz played full-time in all five matches the team played in the month of July. Supporting detailed play with a lot of activity and accurate passing, he was also the best in passing efficiency. A total of 276 successful passes were made by Kaz. With this pass, he beat 424 people. In particular, he showed the highest efficiency (packing 289) in the midfield area and was strong in the attacking area, ranking second (packing 64). Kaz’s pass can be interpreted as being particularly powerful from the front.

The 2nd place overall was Gyeongnam centerback Lee Kang-hee (packing 408). As a player who has been a midfielder and center back since his days in Suwon, his offensive support skills such as forward pressing and passing are evaluated as excellent. Gyeongnam, who rented Lee Kang-hee from Suwon, transferred them completely in July and are burning their will for promotion.

Following Kaz and Lee Kang-hee, Lee Sang-min (Seongnam, Packing 400), Won Doo-jae (Gimcheon, Packing 383), and Park Jae-hwan (Gyeongnam, Packing 346) were named in the overall ‘TOP 5’. 

It was unmoved even with a 157 km/h assault hit. Ryu Hyun-jin (36, Toronto Blue Jays) prepares for the next appearance without any problems.

On the 8th (Korean time), Ryu Hyun-jin started the game against the Cleveland Guardians in the ‘2023 Major League Baseball’ held at Progressive Field in Cleveland, Ohio, USA.

At the beginning of the game, Ryu Hyun-jin showed off an impressive pitch. He showed perfect pitching until the bottom of the 3rd inning and dominated the Cleveland lineup. A perfect match unfolded, showing the resurgence of the Korean Monster, but soon everything changed.

In the bottom of the 4th inning, he was hit in the right knee by Oscar Gonzalez’s 97.7 mph (approximately 157.2 km) assault ball from second out and first base. Ryu Hyun-jin showed his fighting spirit and threw the ball to first base to end the inning, but immediately fell to the ground and complained of pain.스포츠토토

Afterwards, Ryu Hyun-jin got out of the ground with the support of Toronto coach John Schneider. The final result was 4 innings with no hits, 1 walk, 2 strikeouts and no runs. Despite clean pitching, there were many concerns about his physical condition after being replaced due to an injury.

Fortunately, Ryu Hyun-jin’s physical condition is not abnormal. Coach Schneider said in an interview with reporters on the 9th that it was a minor injury, saying, “The X-ray examination result was negative, and today it is much better. The next start will be possible.”

Toronto is using a six-man starting rotation in preparation for a 17-game series of deaths. If it goes as planned, Ryu Hyun-jin is scheduled to take the mound in the home game against the Chicago Cubs at 2:37 on the 14th.

Ryu Hyun-jin, who raised expectations in his second appearance against Cleveland. Can he get his first win of the season against the Cubs?

 The Korean women’s baseball team took the first step with a disappointing defeat.

South Korea (ranked 10th in the world rankings), led by head coach Yang Sang-moon, lost 8-9 to Hong Kong (ranked 11th) in Group A of the World Baseball Softball Confederation (WBSC) 2024 Women’s Baseball World Cup held in Thunder Bay, Canada.메이저사이트

South Korea scored every inning until the 4th inning with Park So-yeon’s timely hit at the end of the 1st inning and Shin Nuri’s sweeping 3 RBIs and 3 bases in the 2nd inning with 2 outs loaded.

However, Korea, which led 7-5 until the 6th inning, gave up the flow by allowing 4 runs in the beginning of the 7th inning. After sending the lead batter out with a hit ball, he was shaken by hits, wild pitches, and walks, and was unable to avoid a large number of runs.

Six countries including Korea and Hong Kong, Canada (3rd), Australia (8th), the United States (4th) and Mexico (12th) participated in Group A of this tournament.

Only when they finish 1st or 2nd in Group A can they advance to the final round of the World Cup to be held in Thunder Bay next year. The top two teams in the host country, Canada, can earn tickets to the final round up to the third place.

South Korea, which unfortunately gave up its first match, will play its second match against the United States on the 10th. The USA beat Australia 3-2 that day.

Professional volleyball ‘last’ Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance showed a different performance. 

Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance defeated KEPCO in the first leg of the 2023 Gumi-Dodram Cup Professional Volleyball Tournament (hereinafter referred to as the cup competition) men’s Group B group stage held at the Park Chung-hee Gymnasium in Gumi, Gyeongbuk on the 7th with a set score of 3-1 (22-25 25-12 25-19) 25-18) and won the first game. 

Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, which fell to the bottom of the 7 men’s clubs with 11 wins and 25 losses (36 points) in the V-League last season, signaled a new start with a thrilling come-from-behind victory over KEPCO, which advanced to the postseason in 4th place. Forget last season… KEPCO favored the early flow of

Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, which strengthened its ‘backward mind’  .

Lee Tae-ho led the attack by raising 5 points with a 50% attack success rate in the first set alone. Park Cheol-woo, who transformed from an attacker to a middle blocker, also added 4 points. Here, in the 19-19 match, Seo Jae-deok scored 3 points in a row and drove a wedge. 

On the other hand, Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance collapsed by pouring out as many as 9 rooms in the first set alone. A nightmare from last season could come to mind. KEPCO had only two rooms. 

However, the flow of the game changed completely from the second set. He took the initiative and took the lead in the height fight in the center. As KEPCO’s defense moved to the middle, setter Noh Jae-guk tried various attacks with a quick toss, which worked.  

Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, which revived the atmosphere, overwhelmed KEPCO and immediately balanced the game by winning the second set with a 25-12 ‘double score’.

In the third set, variables appeared one after another. The close match continued until the middle of the set, but KEPCO striker Gong Jae-hak slipped on the court and injured his leg and was carried off on a stretcher. 

KEPCO was unable to overcome the subdued atmosphere due to a series of injuries, and Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance attacked more boldly, winning the third set and succeeding in reversing. 

Seong-jin Park, ‘2nd year pro’, made a big success in his first start

In the 4th set, Samsung Fire and Marine Insurance broke KEPCO’s pursuit with Park Seong-jin and Kim Jeong-ho jointly scoring 8 points. Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, which never missed the lead, sensed victory when Kim Jeong-ho’s serve ace exploded at the end of the set, and Park Seong-jin’s knockout at the match point put an end to the game.스포츠토토

The protagonist who led Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance to victory was Park Seong-jin. Park Seong-jin, who wore the Samsung Fire & Marine uniform with the 4th pick in the 2nd round in the rookie draft last season, scored 17 points in 15 games, mainly as a substitute player. 

Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance coach Kim Sang-woo started Park Seong-jin, who had finished adapting to the professional stage, for the first time that day, and Park responded to expectations by posting 18 points (attack success rate of 50%), including 3 blocks and 2 sub-aces. 

Park Seong-jin, who scored more points than his debut season in one game on this day, emerged as Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance’s new main gun, raising expectations for his performance this season. In addition, outside hitter Kim Jeong-ho added 14 points and last season’s rookie Kim Jun-woo added 10 points. 

On the other hand, KEPCO’s apositive spiker Lee Tae-ho struggled with 19 points, but could not change the result of the game. Park Chul-woo, who started as a middle blocker for the first time since his debut, scored 9 points, but his main task, blocking, was still not cool. 

Meanwhile, in the previous game, Hyundai Capital, whose main players were selected for the Asian Championships, lost to Panasonic Panthers, an invited team in Japan, with a set score of 0-3 (23-25 ​​21-25 20-25).
