After his KBO League debut, McKinney went outdoors for the first time, playing two games only at the Gocheok Dome. He showed off his crisis management skills early in the game. In the first inning, which was 0-0, Kim Jae-ho hit left-handed and Yang Eui-ji doubled, and was put in 2nd and 3rd base, but Jose Rojas was treated as a fly ball by center fielder, and after 2 outs in the 2nd inning, Jang Seung-hyun’s double double hit the scoring crisis.

The continued crisis of 2nd, 2nd and 3rd base was overcome by catching Kang Seung-ho as a floating ball in center field.

On June 25, his debut game against Gocheok Doosan, he became a losing pitcher with 4 innings and 2 runs, but on July 1 against Gocheok SSG, he won with a good pitching of 6 scoreless innings.

According to Kiwoom officials, McKinney served 70 cups of coffee to the coaching staff and players to commemorate their first win before the match. McKinney said, “I was able to get my first win because his teammates helped me in defense and offense, and kept me behind in the bullpen. He bought coffee with a sense of gratitude to his teammates and a spirit of strength together. He said he made it with iced coffee as the day was hot.”

However, batters who drank coffee could not add strength to McKinney’s good pitch. Doosan starter Kwak Bin, Kim Myung-shin, Park Chi-guk, and Kim Kang-ryul failed to attack the Doosan mound, and McKinney suffered his second loss of the season.
