Oh Jae-Young is a South Korean relief pitcher who plays for the Nexen Heroes in the South Korea Professional Baseball League. He bats and throws left-handed.

Amateur Career

While attending Cheongwon High School in Seoul, Oh was considered one of the top lefty high school pitching prospects. In 2003, he was selected for the South Korea national junior baseball team and competed in the 5th Asian Junior Baseball Championship held in Bangkok, Thailand, where South Korea won its second Asian Championship, beating Chinese Taipei in the final game.

Professional Career

Upon graduation from Cheongwon High School in Seoul, Oh was drafted by the Hyundai Unicorns in the 2nd round (12th overall) of the 2004 KBO Draft. In the 2004 KBO season, Oh immediately earned a spot in the Unicorns starting rotation as a rookie. He finished his rookie season with a record of 10-9, an ERA of 3.99 and 113 strikeouts in 149 innings pitched. Oh helped lead the Unicorns to the 2004 Korean Series, where he started Game 5.

In 2010, Oh played a vital role in the Heroes' bullpen, appearing in a team-leading 69 games (4th in the league). He lowered his ERA to 2.38 and notched a career-high 9 holds with a record of 1-0.
