Since Park Kun-woo left, the team has lost three shutouts…50% collapsed NC, no breakthrough

NC Dinos made a "decision" to drop the main batter Park Kun-woo to the second division. However, since Park Kun-woo was absent, he has been greatly reducing the gap in power, with only three "team shutouts." NC has already collapsed to the 50% point of the season's winning rate, but it seems that it is rarely able to find a breakthrough.

NC lost 0-7 against Samsung in the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League at NC Park in Changwon, Gyeongsangnam-do on the 9th.

NC, which was completely defeated by Samsung 0-8 on the 8th, finished its three consecutive weekend games against Samsung with two losses (cancellation of rain in one game).

On the last day of the three consecutive games of the week against the Kiwoom Heroes, he managed to end his fifth consecutive loss with a come-from-behind victory after extra time, but recently he sank again after losing two consecutive losses to Samsung, which has not been in a good mood.

NC has suffered a severe slump of 2 wins and 12 losses in the last 14 games. Of the last six series, all five series were inferior except for the Doosan Bears (1 win and 1 loss).

The empty ball of the lineup, which is close to "Water Bang Bang," is particularly noticeable. NC has the lowest team batting average of 0.215 in the last 14 games. It is also the lowest at 0.218 even if it is cut to seven games in July. The gap with the ninth-ranked KT Wiz (0.255) is also overwhelmingly at the bottom, close to 4%.

NC is struggling overall as Son Ah-seop, Park Min-woo, and Seo Ho-chul, who were active until mid-June, have lost their sense of hitting.

On top of that, foreign hitter Jason Martin is showing a jagged performance, and the overall slump continues. As Martin's batting order, which was initially tapped as No. 4, has been lowered, Kwon Hee-dong and others are being hired as No. 4, but the reality is that their productivity is lower than that of other teams.

Earlier this month, the main batter Park Kun-woo left. Park Kun-woo went down to the second division under the judgment of the head coach that he had overcome the "one team" even though it was not a reason for injury or sluggishness. Before the cancellation of the first division, Park Kun-woo's batting sense was not very good, but as he was completely excluded from the lineup, the weight of the lineup itself fell.

It was a long-term judgment for solidarity within the team, but it was inevitably a huge power loss for NC, which is suffering from a downward trend.

NC recorded one win and four losses in five games since Park Kun-woo was absent, three of which were completely defeated without a single point. Including the match against KT (0-5) on the 2nd, which was Park Kun-woo's last game before his cancellation of the first division, he has already been shut down four times in July alone.

Park Kun-woo, who is currently playing in the second division, will be able to register for the first division against the Lotte Giants on the 13th. However, coach Kang In-kwon made it clear that he has no plans to return after simply filling the date, so he is likely to return only in the second half.

NC, which was expected to be in the lower ranks before the start of this season, made a splash after the opening of the season with the combination of young players' hard work and the performances of existing veterans. 토토 However, even before the end of the first half, many unfavorable factors overlapped, putting the winning rate on the verge of not being able to keep even 50%.
