Chang-Yong Lim

Lim is a 5 ft 11 in, 175 lb right-handed sidearm pitcher. Lim can throw a 160 kilometres per hour (99 mph) four-seam fastball, though the pitch usually sits at 93–95 mph (150–153 km/h). His signature pitch is his two-seam fastball which, due to its unique tailing movement has earned its nickname "Serpent fastball (Korean: 뱀직구)". His other pitches include a high 70s slider with a sharp horizontal break, a mid 80s forkball, and a rarely used 60 mph (97 km/h) slow-curveball.
