(Sports Seoul | Reporter Park Yeon -jun) Lotte’s ‘Ace’ Park Se -woong (30) has changed. In June, he struggled for two consecutive games, overcoming an average ERA of 10.61. It is originally a “ ace ”. The strategy that boldly increased the curve rate is crucial. Lotte looks at Park Se -woong’s ‘resurrection’ to the rise, looking at higher places.

Park Se -woong showed a perfect helmet with six innings and one hits and seven strikeouts in the NC on the 29th. Although he could not win the victory due to the lack of batting support, he played a good job with a quality start. On the 23rd, he played seven innings and one run.

In the second half, he shot a signal of rebound. In particular, he left a stable pitch for two consecutive games. The allowable rate was less than 0.200. This is lower than the total batting average of 0.276 this season. In particular, the NC match did not allow a single hit in other balls in addition to 0.111 fastball.

At the beginning of the season, Park Se -woong was perfect. He won eight consecutive wins before KT on May 11. At the time, Park Se -woong scored 8 wins and 1 loss in nine games and 2.25 ERA. It was called the ‘League Best Ace’.

But since then, a sharp fall has come. From May 12 to the end of the first half, he scored 9.84 ERA in eight games in eight games. In six games, he allowed more than five runs. In particular, the average ERA in June was shaken at 10.61.

It was effective to change the old pattern. Increased the curve ball. In June, Park Se -woong’s curve rate was less than 5%. On the contrary, the slider dependence was over 30%.

However, in the last two games, the curve rate has been increased to more than 15%. The slider has been lowered to 20%. These changes led to stable economic operation.

Kim Tae -hyung also welcomed Park Se -woong’s resurrection. Kim said, “It’s not a good pitcher. It’s not changed. I had a good ball, but now it seems to be solved properly.

Lotte will rank third in the league with 54 wins, 3 draws and 42 losses before the 30th. The second LG ride is not long. He is continuing to chase. The winning streak was on the rise, and the resurrection of Park Se -woong was added.

The team’s power is even stronger. Park Se -woong, who regained the original ‘glasses ace’, was reborn as a powerful ‘weapon’ of Lotte in the second half. duswns0628@sportsseoul.com
