[Taipei (Taiwan) = Sports Chosun Reporter Kim Young-rok] As expected, Park Se-woong of the international competition was heavy. Taiwan's weather in February was not an obstacle to 'Glasses Ace'.

Park Se-woong started against Taiwan's WBC (World Baseball Classic) national team at Taipei Dome on the 12th and allowed two hits, one walk and one run in two innings.

It's still mid-February, and unlike Taiwan, which is preparing for the WBC qualifying round, Lotte is now holding the first spring camp. a time when one's condition hasn't risen yet.




But Park was different. Taiwan's leading batters showed off their strong ball power enough to push their bats. Lotte's flagship star's pride stood out.

On this day, Park Se-woong succeeded in a clean three-way exit by striking out Jjang Wi-cheong and Cheonji C&N in a row in the bottom of the first inning.

I was a bit shaky in the bottom of the second inning. He gave up a heavy hit to Chen Zhihao, the first batter. It was also treated as a straight hit to center field in Hucheon Park with one out, but it was a well-hit ball.

With two outs and a runner on the first base, he allowed Unienting to make an RBI double that gently cut the left-center gap. He also gave up his first walk to the next batter, Kao Yuzie.

Still, he caught Linzway with a foul fly on third base and finished the day with one run in two innings without additional runs.

The total number of pitches in two innings was 31. The maximum speed of the fastball, which threw a total of 18 pitches, is 147 kilometers, which is an impressive figure.




What's more surprising is that the average speed was 145 km. As a pitcher who has been active on the professional stage since his debut, he has excellent ability to maintain his confinement. In addition, he faced Taiwanese batters well by mixing a mid-130km slider and a fork ball.

Park Se-woong handed over the mound to Park Joon-woo after the second inning. Lotte is leading 2-1 as of the end of the fifth inning with Cho In-geun's first-run timely hit in the top of the second inning and Reyes' RBI double on the right-field line in the top of the third inning.
