Park Se-woong, what has changed and what is the problem.

The worst game of the season came out. The momentum is nowhere to go when winning eight consecutive games. It is the fourth consecutive defeat.

Lotte Giants native ace Park Se-woong is going downhill. Park Se-woong started the game against KT Wiz at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 10th, but went down the mound with 12 hits and 8 runs in 5 innings.




It was a shocking result. I got hit with two home runs. All eight runs scored by an earned run. He couldn't even make excuses such as mistakes. It was the most lost points and most earned runs this season. When Park Se-woong collapsed, Lotte couldn't hold out. a 3-12 rout.

Park was likely to make a historic season this year. He lost the opening game against the LG Twins, but won all eight games that followed. Pitchers recognize the winning streak even if there is a game against the no-decision in the middle of the win. However, Park Se-woong was not just a consecutive victory, but only said that it was great because it was a victory of eight games. Among them, Seung-woon followed about the game against the NC Dinos on April 11, when he won after allowing five runs (four earned runs) in seven innings. The rest were all perfect pitches within three runs, and only one game (five innings) against the Kiwoom Heroes on April 30th was played under six innings. The rest played more than six innings and played all the roles they had to play as starters. He also struck out a lot. During the eight-game winning streak, the number of strikeouts was 6-9-9-12-9-2-7-8. It means it was overwhelming.

A player whose career high was 12 wins in 2017, and 10 wins and 2 wins were all double-digit wins. Although steady, Park Se-woong, who expected about 10 wins, had a scary pace this year as if he could record 20 wins. But just as there is a saying that 'Handy pops out', Park Se-woong is collapsing. In golf, 'handicap' means the average number of strokes, and amateurs often play a game that collapses in the second half even though they are likely to score more than their own skills at the beginning of the round. Park Se-woong's performance, which had been 8 wins and 1 losses, also became 8 wins and 5 losses in a blink of an eye.




Five runs in five innings against the Samsung Lions began on the 17th of last month. Fortunately, he escaped defeat. However, he lost three consecutive games in shock against the Hanwha Eagles, the Samsung Lions, and the Kiwoom Heroes. The match against Hanwha was disappointed with the quality start of three earned runs in six ⅓ innings, but he allowed six runs and five runs in the match against Samsung and Kiwoom. And now that the eight-run game is out, Lotte has no choice but to sigh.

Of course, Park Se-woong also sacrificed himself. Even if he lost the first game of the week, he had to hold out to some extent to be able to breathe in the pitching management. So I threw up to the 5th inning even though I wasn't in good condition, and then the number of runs increased.

However, the economy is not the only problem on this day, but it has been on the decline recently, so we need to rebound as soon as possible.

Then, why did Park Se-woong, who threw so well, falter. First of all, there seems to be an aftermath of a lot of throws. With the weather getting hotter, it's time to run out of energy. The maximum speed of the fastball against KT was 150km, but the opponents analyzed that regardless of the speed of the fastball and slider dropped more than at the beginning of the season. Perhaps that's why Park threw 41 fastballs, while throwing 42 sliders, one more. When confidence falls in the fastball, this kind of pitch distribution comes out.

On top of that, the performance is so good that the opponent cannot help but analyze it more thoroughly. Park Se-woong is fast in ball, but he has been using the ABS zone particularly well this year. He made superb use of the outer zone of the batter. The slider was also sharp, so he stabbed every corner of the zone.

So the opponent also deals with it. Taking KT hitters as an example, right-handed hitters approached the home plate and actively targeted Park Se-woong's winning pitches to avoid being caught in the outside game. He threw away the ball that he thought was falling out at all, and the bat went out on the ball that felt like he could put on the zone even a little bit. Strategies to suppress Park. If Park has good pitching capability, he will be able to overcome batters in this situation, but as his fastball pitching has weakened, he is not fooled by the slider and is able to cope with the situation instantly even though he is aiming for other types of pitches, which has led to a situation in which Park has no choice but to struggle.
