Lotte Giants' glasses ace Park Se-woong failed to secure another victory in Daejeon even though he played a minimal role as a starting pitcher. It is already the 11th game since his debut in the first division in 2015.

Park Se-woong allowed three strikeouts and four runs (three earned) in six ⅓ innings (98 pitches), seven hits and three outs (two walks) in the 2025 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League regular season away game against the Hanwha Eagles at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 23rd.안전놀이터

Despite making his seventh quality start of the season (more than six innings and less than three earned runs), Lotte lost 2-4, ultimately losing for the second time (8 wins) of the season.

He displayed good pitching. He allowed three outs and four outs in the second and fourth innings, and ended the inning without losing a run even though he seemed to give up a long hit. It was regrettable that the ball collapsed when the ball shook for a moment. Park gave up hits to leadoff hitters Lee Jin-young and Lee Jae-won in the bottom of the fifth inning when Lotte was leading 1-0, and allowed Ha to tie the game 1-1 due to a timely RBI.

However, it was painful to throw back-to-back sliders to Esteban Floral, who had a hit to the right, and gave Choi In-ho a walk without catching a strike. Fortunately, Moon Hyun-bin was turned into a double play to prevent a mass loss crisis, but in the crisis that began with an error in the sixth inning, he hit Chae Eun-sung and lost additional points to the disappointing infield defense, putting the risk of defeat on the line.

What was most regrettable was the batting lineup. Lotte's batters scored 27 points in three consecutive home games against the LG Twins during the week. However, as opposing starter Ryan Weiss (29) overwhelmed Lotte's batters with four hits (one homer) and 11 strikeouts and two runs scored in eight innings, the team failed to provide sufficient support. Lotte's batters only scored one point in the ninth inning when Weiss went down, even though they had a chance to garner the bases loaded with two outs against Hanwha closer Kim Seo-hyun, failing to eliminate the requirement for Park's loss.

As a result, Park Se-woong has taken the mound 11 times in Daejeon alone since his debut in the first division in 2015, recording 0 wins, 9 losses and an 8.45 ERA. It is only Daejeon and Ulsan that Park Se-woong, who has 76 wins (90 losses) in 264 appearances, has not won in more than five appearances. In Ulsan, he had a 2.53 ERA in five games, which was not as good as his performance.

Under Kim Tae-hyung's leadership, however, Park Se-woong will continue to play as the starting pitcher and aim for his first win in Daejeon. "Park Se-woong will not change the order of his pitching (because he is weak in Daejeon). As a manager, I have never paid attention to such matters. Originally, Park should have played in the match against LG, but he pushed the game back one game due to the large number of pitches. People used to say that he pitched to avoid the match against Hanwha Eagles, which is ridiculous. When the rotation comes, we have to turn around," Kim said.
