At the end of the season, foreigners who have been missing 15m catch for three months now, and national hitters who even erased miracles are not in the idea"

Doosan Bears manager Lee Seung-yeop fixed his eyes on the players warming up on the ground ahead of Game 1 of the doubleheader against the LG Twins. He sometimes talks with players who are training. Among them was Brandon Waddell (registered name Brandon), a foreign pitcher who is rehabilitating from injury.
Brandon disappeared after complaining of left shoulder pain in the match against Samsung in Daegu on June 23. As a result of a detailed examination, he was diagnosed with damage to the left sub-scapular muscle. While he was out, Doosan signed foreign pitcher Keisho Shirakawa, an injury substitute. However, Brandon's condition did not improve even at the end of his six-week contract with Shirakawa. In the end, Doosan signed an extension contract with Shirakawa, but this time, Shirakawa was injured and left. Brandon, who was expected to return in mid-August, was frustrated that he could not catch the ball until mid-September.
Brandon like this finally caught the ball.

Director Lee "After the final examination, he felt anxious and underwent a re-examination, and was determined to be fine."It is said that there is no problem with catch balls."
The step-by-step pitching program usually takes about two weeks even if you get an OK sign on all courses. Considering Doosan's remaining pennant race schedule, it is virtually difficult for Brandon to take the mound. There is room for Doosan to enter the fall baseball league, but it is true that it is not easy unless there is a miraculous situation where it skips some of the pitching programs and returns immediately.
