The beginning of the season for ‘Ace of Glasses’ Park Se-woong is rough. He struggled through a difficult April, but continued to struggle in his first appearance in May.
The Lotte Giants played the 4th game of the season against the KIA Tigers at Kia Champions Field in Gwangju on the 2nd.
8 consecutive wins Lotte and 5 consecutive wins KIA face-to-face. However, starting pitchers from both teams were struggling side by side and both went down the mound before the fifth inning.
It is Park Se-woong’s first appearance in 9 days since the NC Dinos match on the 23rd of last month (5 innings, 3 runs, 2 earned runs). In the WBC (World Baseball Classic), he showed off his extraordinary pitch, but he is struggling this season, perhaps because he improved his condition early.
He was replaced after giving up 3 runs (2 earned) in 4⅔ innings in his first appearance against SSG Landers. He managed to fill the 5th inning with 3 runs in 5 innings against the LG Twins. However, he collapsed again with 4 ⅔ innings and 5 runs (4 earned) in the first game of the season (April 18) against the KIA Tigers.
The cancellation of the rain overlapped, and I bought time to recover my condition. Lotte coach Larry Sutton, who I met before the game, said, “I took enough rest, so it’s no problem to start twice a week.”
At least not on this day. At the end of the first inning, when Lotte was leading 1-0, Park Se-woong brought a full base safely from the start with KIA Ryu Ji-hyuk hits and Go Jong-wook-Kim Sun-bin walks. Hyung-Woo Choi’s 2 RBIs allowed a turnaround.
Fortunately, the next hitter, Hwang Dae-in’s grounder on third base, was connected to a double hit, and Socrates managed to finish the first inning by setting Socrates back with a floating ball in center field.
Park Se-woong passed the second inning with one hit, but allowed a double to Choi Hyung-woo after two outs in the third inning. Byun Woo-hyeok’s walk followed by Socrates’ 1 RBI double allowed an additional run. He ended the third inning by cutting off Lee Chang-jin with a bat.
In the 4th inning, after a run, Park Chan-ho hit and Ryu Ji-hyuk walked, facing a crisis with 1 out and 1st and 2nd bases. He cut off follow-up hits well, but the number of pitches increased exponentially.
In the 5th episode, a crisis came after two deaths. He gave consecutive walks to Socrates and Lee Chang-jin. Thanks to the batting line, he managed to lead 5-3, but he had no choice but to change as the number of pitches reached 스포츠토토111 and the runner in the tie was out. Right before the replacement, Park Se-woong said “I’m sorry” to pitching coach Bae Young-soo, and was also caught on the air.
The highest speed of the fastball reached 148 km, but the ball was not controlled. Kim Jin-wook, who came to the mound as a relief pitcher, avoided an additional run by handling KIA pinch hitter Lee Woo-seong with a fly ball in right field.
