KIA Tigers' Kim Do-young, who collapsed after being hit by a dune in the upper left elbow, came out.

KIA team said Kim Do-young, who was hit by Hernandez's 151km fastball in the bottom of the fifth inning with two outs and second base when his team was leading 4-2 against the LG Twins at Kia Champions Field in Gwangju on the 3rd, was diagnosed with a simple bruise.

Kim Do-young, who was hit by a dune, immediately complained of pain and hesitated to sit down. KIA trainers and medical staff waiting on the spot checked the condition, but Kim Do-young could not easily stand up. In the end, KIA bench chose to replace, and Hong Jong-pyo took the lead. An KIA official said "Kim Do-young was hit by the boundary of the left elbow guard, and he moved to the club-designated hospital for a CT scan examination."

Kim Do-young is on the verge of achieving 40 home runs and 40 steals for the first time as a KBO league batter with 35 home runs and 36 steals before the game. With 98 RBIs, he is also only two steps away from achieving 100 RBIs. In the midst of this, I encountered unexpected bad luck. Soon after Kim Do-young's dune, not only the KIA team but also the home fans who visited the stadium were seen everywhere not hiding their sorrow.
