"On the mound, Kangnam only trusts and throws."

Lotte Giants' Park Se-woong (30) is predicting the best season of his life. The glasses ace, which is in its heyday, may seem like a sweet dream to Lotte fans.

From the memory of 2023 when he won only nine games despite his career high-class performance, Park Se-woong had as many images of "Park Bok-i" as he was greatly loved.




This year is different. Park Se-woong is 4-1 with a 2.56 ERA in 5 games and 31 ⅔ innings this season. Together with Hanwha Ponce and LG Lim Chan-kyu and Chirinos, they are joint leaders in the multiple wins category.

In particular, in the match against the Kiwoom Heroes in Busan on the 17th, he pitched 6 ⅔ scoreless innings and received a hot standing ovation and chants from Busan fans. The 12 strikeouts he caught on the day are Park Se-woong's record for the most strikeouts in a game since his debut in 2015. The previous record was 10 against the NC Dinos in 2022. In the second and fifth innings, he struck out three consecutive batters and advanced quickly.

Park Se-woong laughed, saying, `KKK of course feels good, but it's better to hit it quickly and save the number of pitches.' When asked about the secret of the milestone, he gave credit to Yoo Kang-nam.




"I was pitching a bullpen, but I didn't like the fork ball as much as I thought. I didn't talk to Kangnam separately, but I think the catcher caught it. At the time when I always threw a fork ball, a curve sign came out. It worked well as a result."

On the same day, Park used curves, fork balls, and sliders in almost the same proportion as fastball. The decision structure also utilized all kinds of pitches. Park Se-woong said, `Gangnam really studies a lot, and he has a good ability to judge which ball is good today. When I go on the mound, I only trust Gangnam's signature and throw it." Also, he did not forget to thank Song Jae-young for preventing the loss crisis in the seventh inning.

Lotte went from less than 50% every year to 50% at the final destination, and there were many frustrating seasons. Park Se-woong said, `I hope it doesn't go below 50% this year. He didn't hide his pleasant premonition, saying, "The flow is good."




There is a difference of one game from Ponce and a difference of 56-42 strikeouts as much as the number of games. Park Se-woong said, `I don't have any greed for the three-strike king. I don't think I'm in a position to think about it now. I will prepare more thoroughly every game and focus on winning."
