Will eyeglasses come true? I want to meet the fall higher than Park Se-woong's third place, who is about to have a career high in eight years.

Literally, it's a metamorphosis. Lotte Giants' Park Se-woong regained the presence of 'Glasses Ace'.

Park Se-woong pitched hard with three runs in seven innings against the Kiwoom Heroes at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 3rd and won his 11th game of the season. Lotte has firmly maintained its third place with the recent rise of winning in four series.

It is his fifth seven innings this season and fourth quality start plus (more than seven innings and less than three earned runs). His 11th win is the fourth most wins after Cody Ponce (13 wins), Ryan Weiss and Ryan Thompson (12 wins) this season. He is the lone top pitcher in Korea.




It is also significant to Park Se-woong. Career High posted 12 wins and 6 losses in 2017, the fourth year of its debut. Lotte is set to play its first fall baseball in eight years, and coincidentally, Park Se-woong is also aiming for his first career high in eight years.

However, Park Se-woong is a player who focuses on innings rather than multiple wins. Park Se-woong, who met after the game, responded to the reporters' repeated multiple wins, saying, `I only had good luck this year. I feel good in the sense that if my victory accumulates, the team wins. It's more important not to give a score than to win the most."

On this day, Lotte led the atmosphere of the game by scoring nine points in the first and third innings alone. Park Se-woong was able to throw more aggressively because he scored a lot in the beginning, and even so, if he gives a comeback point right away, he may give the atmosphere back. He said, "(Yu) Gangnam and I talked about 'Let's concentrate as much as possible until the third inning and block it (without losing a point)' led to a good atmosphere."




He has pitched well in three consecutive games in the second half of the year. He regained stability with one run in seven innings, six scoreless innings and three runs in seven innings. It is a far cry from the days when he had an 11.91 ERA in five games, including four games in June and the game against the KIA Tigers on July 5.

On the secret of her change, Park Se-woong said, `I prepared well during the All-Star break. He also stressed that (Kim Tae-hyung) wanted to repay that belief because the coach continued to trust him and let him go.

Then "There was a side where the ball combination was too focused on one side. In particular, when there is a crisis, he threw more fastball sliders. So these days, I'm using various pitches while using curves or fork balls in between, and I think I'm getting good results because those balls usually go into the strike zone." "I don't throw too many curves these days."I also happened to see director Kim Tae-hyung's interview."

As for fall baseball "In 2017, I went to the postseason too young. Now I think I know baseball more than I did then. Now it's time to prove in fall baseball, but there's still a lot of season left. Rather than thinking about autumn baseball right now, I think I want to win one more game in the regular season and face autumn baseball in a higher ranking than third place."

"We're not the only ones hot. I think it's most important for all the players to cheer up and concentrate on every game."
