Park Se-woong (Korean: 박세웅; born November 30, 1995) is a South Koreanstarting pitcher who plays for theLotte Giants in theKBO League. He throws right-handed.
Park was selected by the expansion teamkt Wiz in the 2014 Draft (held in 2013). He played in theKBO Futures League in 2014 and was on the opening day roster of the 2015 kt Wiz, before being traded to theLotte Giants. After two disappointing seasons, Park became one of the best starting pitchers in the KBO in 2017.[2]
He was selected to representSouth Korea at the2017 Asia Professional Baseball Championship, and started the final againstJapan. He was the losing pitcher in a game he pitched 3+ innings and allowed one earned run.[3]
In 2018, he didn't prepare properly for the season due to elbow injuries and only won one game in 14 games, sluggish with a 9.92 ERA. After the season, he underwent a bone removal operation on his elbow.[4]
In 2019, he returned in June and had a 4.20 ERA in 12 games. He recovered his pre-injury arrest and showed better performance in the second half, making him look forward to next season.
In 2020, He pushed outNoh Kyung-eun and proudly established himself as the first native starter. Although he continued his sluggish performance in the first half without showing the performance of the exhibition game in the early stages, he was hidden by So Hyung-joon andKoo Chang-mo, but he showed performance in the top five fingers among the native starters in the league. At the beginning of the season, when the control of the four-seam was not good, he showed a new pitching pattern that lowered BB/9 to two points by increasing the ratio of changeups and two-seam pitching in the past. In addition, he played his first full-time starting rotation after returning from injury, proving his health without any side effects, and being sluggish at the beginning of the season and then improving in the second half of the season seemed to see Song Seung-joon in the past when he was Royster. However, until late August and early September, his ERA was 4.18 and he was second in domestic selection, but in October, he showed poor performance one after another. In particular, the fact that he ranked first in the number of home runs allowed per game and that he often collapsed even after throwing well should be corrected. Still, 2021 was a season that made me think that I could surpass all the indicators recorded in 2017.[5]
