Park Hae-min, who was replaced due to pain in his left shoulder while sliding, played normally and Austin Dean, who rested due to colds, was excluded from the starting lineup, but he can play as a substitute. In addition, Jung Woo-young, who voluntarily replaced his elbow during pitching, also has no major problems, so he can pitch normally from the 16th.
In the away game against the Hanwha Eagles at Hanwha Life Eagles Park in Daejeon on the 14th, LG composed Hong Chang-ki (right wing), Moon Sung-joo (designated hitter), Kim Hyun-soo (left wing), Moon Bo-kyung (first baseman), Oh Ji-hwan (striker), Park Dong-won (catcher), Koo Bon-hyuk (third baseman), Park Hae-min (middle fielder), and Shin Min-jae (second baseman).
Park Hae-min, who had a headfirst sliding on first base after a surprise bunt in the top of the fourth inning and was replaced by Ahn Ik-hoon in defense in the bottom of the fourth inning due to pain in his left shoulder, was normally listed in the starting lineup as No. 8-center field. When I checked my physical condition after being replaced, I decided to only icing and watch my condition, not a major injury, but fortunately, there was no problem.
Park Hae-min suffered from a severe slump and recovered by hitting two hits in the match against Hanwha on the 12th, and he had a good hitting sense by hitting a solo shot the day before, so the sudden replacement due to the injury came as a disappointment.
Austin, who took a complete rest the day before, was not included in the starting lineup, but is a pinch hitter. I prepared for the game by doing batting training. Kim Hyun-soo, who had been sluggish, filled Austin's vacancy with two hits, one walk and three runs as the third batter the previous day.
Jung Woo-young, who voluntarily left the mound and raised concerns that it might be a major injury, was also not excluded from the first-team entry on the day. Even if a gap of more than three to four days is needed, it is often excluded from the first group, but not excluding it means that it is not a big problem.
LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop said, `I've had such symptoms for a long time. If you take a day or two off, you'll get better. "I thought it was because of bone fragments. I thought it would be okay if I had surgery, but it will appear even if I have surgery." Jung Woo-young even checked his elbow condition by himself while pitching shadow in the bullpen before the game. Jung Woo-young will not take the mound on this day and will wait for the bullpen from the match against Samsung in Jamsil on the 16th.
