"I think that's why I threw him all balls today, just so he doesn't get to see it. No, I'm just kidding. It'd be a blast. I think I've faced Jung Hoo probably four times in live (bullpens) and I don't think I've thrown him one strike."
"I don't know why that is, but hopefully, if I do face him in the WBC, I remember how to throw strikes during that at-bat. I'm excited for Jungy, and I know he's excited to represent his country. Obviously, if we're facing each other, I'm not going to be friendly with him. But, always before and after."
Logan Webb threw his first live bullpen of camp in Scottsdale, facing six batters and throwing 25 pitches. Hayden Birdsong also threw his first live bullpen, facing four batters and throwing 20 pitches. Carson Whisenhunt and Will Bednar faced hitters on a backfield. Webb and Birdsong produced detailed at-bat results, including a walk to Jung Hoo Lee, strikeouts, a single by Jung Hoo Lee against Birdsong, and a double by Drew Gilbert off Webb. Webb expressed excitement about a possible WBC matchup with Jung Hoo Lee, while Birdsong noted his velocity was effective.
