Chan Park Quotations

One out against him should count as two outs.

Our goal was to get the win. This was an important win for us. I didn't expect to go three innings but was glad to help the team.

We didn't just play a baseball game, we brought together many Koreans. Each player is trying to win the game, but it's not only about the game. We're bringing Korean people together. I'm really happy for the country. I really hope Japan wins the championship.

It was too bad he couldn't go longer than five innings. But he did a good job, but the manager wanted to use more pitchers.

Now I'm against the Dodgers, but I feel nothing different because I'm going to face new guys, not former teammates. (Guys like) Jeff Kent. It's not the same guys, so I don't really feel like I'm facing the Dodgers. It's different.

A couple of hits cost three or four runs and that hurts. It was my first outing in 10 days facing hitters and maybe that cost a little bit. It's not going to be normal after not pitching in 10 days and there were a lot of things going in on my head.

If Japan considers us a rival, as members of the Korean team, that means we are a strong team. We will play Japan, and one of us will win. For me, it will be a splendid experience.

I guess it's good. An outing like today makes me more comfortable on the mound.

The four runs makes me more relaxed, and I throw more fastballs.
