"I was happy and honored to be with the shining player.


Thank you from the bottom of my heart," he said.

Pedi boasted 20-6 with a 2.00 ERA in 30 games and 180 ⅓ innings this season. He added 209 strikeouts to set a milestone of "20 wins-200 strikeouts." It is the fifth player in KBO league history and the first foreign player. Since Sun Dong-yeol (24 wins-214 strikeouts, Haitian Tigers) in 1986, he has achieved the feat in 37 years. He also achieved a pitcher triple crown with a title holder in the ERA, victory, and strikeouts. It is the fourth time in history and the first time as a foreign player after Sun Dong-yeol (1986, 1989, 1990, 1991, Haitai), Ryu Hyun-jin (2006, Hanwha), and Yoon Seok-min (2011, KIA Tigers).

He received various trophies. He won five awards at the KBO Awards. He won the KBO MVP of the honor, the ERA award, the victory award, the strikeout award, and the defense trophy in the pitcher category. For NC, he won the MVP award for the second time since Eric Thames in 2015 and for the first time in eight years. Pedi thanked the NC club, team, family and fans. Manager Han Dong-hee is also a part of the team. He bowed 90 degrees and treated him with respect.

One manager said: "Peddy has done really well all season. I think I also received a lot of good energy from Pedi, he said. "Whenever I did well, I often mentioned my name." I don't know where to put myself. It was so touching that I even endured the full emotions," he said. "I think I met a really good player. I'm a blessed man. "I'm always grateful to Pedi," he stressed.

They were as close as their own brothers. One manager said, "Peddy played a lot of jokes. "I sometimes speak in words, but I also bumped into him with my body," he said. "Peddy has a younger brother and I have a younger brother. We both had a lot of mischief as we grew up fighting between our brothers," he said with a smile.

Pedi also had a crisis. He was hit in the arm by a hit at the end of the regular season. He couldn't play many postseason games due to the accumulation of fatigue. He pitched in one playoff game and won the starting game with one run in six innings.

A manager said, "Peddy was a player with more passion and tenacity for baseball than anyone else. Rather than giving advice from the side, he just tried to listen to the story a lot, he said. "He might think that he doesn't have his side in a strange country. I often used the expression 'I'm on your side' to Peddy. As a manager, as a brother and friend, I truly considered Pedi family."

Pedi is agonizing over his future course of action. Major League Baseball (MLB) and Japan Professional Baseball (NPB) are also among the options. NC offered the highest treatment, including a multi-year contract. A manager said, "I hope Pedi will become a better player by playing 200 innings without injury in any league in the future. "Before I become a baseball player, I know I'm a really cool person, so I believe I'll become a much better player if I just do what I've been doing so far," he said.

One manager started translating at the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics. In the 2021-2022 season, he played for Hyundai Capital in men's professional volleyball. He made a connection with NC last year. Was in charge of pitchers Wes Parsons and Matt Dermody. I've had my best year with Pedi this season.
