Is there a starter on the day at the Benkle site? Park Se-woong on the mound was the cause of a sudden change in disturbance.
Lotte-Samsung match held at Daegu Lions Park on the 29th. In the top of the fifth inning, Jeon Joon-woo, with two outs, was hit by Choi Won-tae's ball. After the first bench clearing outbreak, Jeon Joon-woo and Choi Won-tae, who were on first base, collided again. The two are reconciling only after the second bench clearing.

There are people who take 'absolute stability' when bench clearing takes place. He is the starting pitcher for the day and the day after.

As the word 'bench clearing' literally means, it is a principle that all players run when there is an emotional conflict on the ground. The pitcher with a sensitive body is no exception. In the case of Major League Baseball, you can see a spectacular view of pitchers running one after another from the bullpen in the outfield.

Still, the players who don't care are the starting pitchers. The next day's starter doesn't even move in the locker room. I was worried that I might get hurt after being caught in a physical fight. The same goes for pitchers in the game.




But Lotte Giants Park Se-woong was different. Daegu Samsung Lions Park on the 29th. When the bench clearing broke out again due to the second collision between Lotte's Jeon Joon-woo and Samsung's Choi Won-tae, Park Se-woong stood on the ground, and also next to Jeon Joon-woo, the party involved.

The pride and responsibility of being a pitcher representing Lotte must have come first rather than injury concerns. But it was over-ambitious.

Park Se-woong was pitching well without losing a point until the fourth inning of the day. As a result, Lotte was leading 2-0 until just before the bench clearing.




However, starting with bench clearing, the atmosphere has changed significantly. Samsung scored four points in the fifth inning and three points in the sixth inning, and Park Se-woong was left watching his team's defeat with a disappointing report card of six runs (five earned) in five ⅓ innings. For the first time since the opening, the ERA has risen to the 3-point range (3.11).

There was also bad luck with missed hits, but there is a possibility that the balance was shaken as he participated in the buckle and played the next inning immediately.

It is also true that he has been somewhat tired as he has continuously played the rotation since the opening. Park Se-woong's number of pitches this season exceeds 1,209 and Ponce (Hanwha Eagles, 1,206), ranking first in the number of pitches in the season. Currently, only Park Se-woong, Ponce, and Riley (1101 pitches in 11 games) have thrown an average of more than 100 pitches per game. Park Se-woong is the only native pitcher. 72 ⅔ innings is also by far the number one among domestic pitchers. Only four foreigners, including Weiss Nail, have played more innings than that.




Even so, Lotte, which is shaking while speeding through the third round, is not in a position to give Park Se-woong a break now. Lotte manager Kim Tae-hyung, who met in Busan on the 30th, also did not talk about Park Se-woong's rest.

He said "Park Se-woong and Na Kyun-an kept pitching away, maybe because they were in Daegu. Don't you think a decision will be made only when the ball comes into the zone. I keep paying attention to the runner, so I change the ball mix and try to do corner work, but it shakes. If you can't give a single point, the sign goes off the bench...," he lamented.

"In the end, that's where the pitcher's command is divided. A pitcher who can throw a strike when he has to throw is a good pitcher."
