There was no surprise. The star who shone the most in professional baseball this year was Eric Peddie (30, NC Dinos), who achieved the pitcher triple crown. Moon Dong-ju (20), the national team's next-generation ace, also received the Rookie of the Year award from the Hanwha Eagles, 17 years after Ryu Hyun-jin.

Peddie was honored as the Most Valuable Player (MVP) at the '2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO Awards' held at the Westin Chosun Seoul Grand Ballroom on the 27th.

[Peddie](http://cse.google.tk/url?sa=i&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gostopsite.com%2F) won the MVP trophy with overwhelming support with 102 out of 111 votes from the press. Peddy, who recorded 91.9% of the votes, beat his competitors Noh Si-hwan (6 votes, Hanwha), Hong Chang-gi (2 votes, LG Twins), and Choi Jeong (1 vote, SSG Landers) by a large margin.

Foreign players who received regular season MVP awards include Tyron Woods (1998), Daniel Rios (2007, Doosan Bears), Eric Thames (2015, NC), Dustin Nippert (2016), and Josh Lindblom (2019). He is the 8th following (2020, Doosan), Mel Rojas Jr. (2020, KT Wiz), and Ariel Miranda (2021, Doosan).

The NC club produced its second MVP following Thames, and all winners were foreign players.

Peddie's MVP award was expected. There was no player who shone brighter than Peddie in professional baseball this year.

Peddie, who played in the Major League Baseball (MLB) and signed with NC this season, immediately dominated the KBO League. He pitched 180⅓ innings in 30 games, showing outstanding performance with 20 wins and 6 losses, 209 strikeouts, and an ERA of 2.00.

Peddy, who ranked first in ERA, most wins, and strikeouts with his overwhelming skills, achieved the great feat of winning the pitcher's triple crown.

Previously, only Don Dong-yeol (1986, 1989, 1990, 1991), Ryu Hyun-jin (2006), and Yoon Seok-min (2011) achieved the triple crown as a pitcher, but Peddy became the first foreign pitcher to achieve this.

In particular, Peddie set a record of 20 wins and 200 strikeouts for the first time in 37 years since Sun Dong-yeol in 1986, and unfortunately failed to set an ERA of 1 point for the first time in 13 years since Ryu Hyun-jin in 2010.

In the first game of the professional baseball '2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO Postseason' playoffs between KT Wiz and NC Dinos, held at KT Wiz Park in Jangan-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do on the afternoon of the 30th, NC starting pitcher Peddy continues to pitch well in the bottom of the 6th inning.

In his last game of the regular season on October 16, Peddie pitched a scoreless pitch with two outs in the sixth inning, but suffered the misfortune of being replaced after being hit on the right arm by [Ko Jong-wook's](http://www.kitaoka-group.com/pukiwiki/index.php?gostopsite3) batted ball. In the end, he missed the ERA of 1 point due to one out count short.

Peddie pitched great in the postseason as well. Peddie, who skipped the wild card game and semi-playoff game due to a bruise, appeared in the first game of the playoffs and tied up the KT Wiz batting lineup with 12 strikeouts and 1 run in 6 innings. The 12 strikeouts he struck out were the most strikeouts in a single playoff game in history.

NC was eliminated in the playoffs after losing 2 games in a row and losing 3 games in a row, ending Peddie's season. Even though they did not reach the top, Super Ace, who led NC, which was considered the lowest candidate, [카지노사이트랭크](https://www.casinositerank.com/category/%ec%98%a8%eb%9d%bc%ec%9d%b8%ec%b9%b4%ec%a7%80%eb%85%b8/) to fall baseball, had a season that shined brighter than anyone else.

Peddie said, “I’m so happy I can’t believe it. “I was able to win the MVP because I came to a team called NC,” he said. “I was able to win the MVP thanks to the many players who played on the same team. “I want them to know that they are my brothers until the end,” he said in his acceptance speech.

He continued, “Manager Kang In-kwon, pitching coach Kim Soo-kyung, the data analysis team, and the training team provided a lot of help. Lastly, I would like to give glory to the city of Changwon. “The citizens of Changwon were of great help, and Changwon is like my second hometown,” he added.
