The Samsung Lions, who are about to go to autumn baseball, swept away their surprised hearts.

Hwang Dong-jae, who announced his starting position ahead of the match against KIA in Gwangju on the 23rd and replaced it suddenly, was judged as "no special matters". Ahead of the match against KIA in Gwangju on the 24th, Samsung said "Hwang Dong-jae received microinflammation of his right shoulder as a result of the examination at the club's designated hospital." There is nothing unusual about it."

However, Hwang Dong-jae was eliminated from the first team entry on the day. Samsung manager Park Jin-man said, `My opinion is inflammation, but it is said to be the level of inflammation that players often have. It is said that there is no major problem with the body, he said. "First of all, it was canceled to protect the player."

Hwang Dong-jae pitched 42 innings in 15 games this season with a 1-2 record and an ERA of 4.07. He was classified as a candidate for the fifth starting pitcher before the season, but he showed sluggish performance in spring camp practice games and was eventually eliminated from the competition. After spending some time in the Futures (second division), he was called up for the first division on June 30. In the first game of the first team, he pitched five innings to impress coach Park. Since then, he has played the role of a bullpen and has been starting and relieving since the middle of last month. It has been classified as a resource to help Samsung's fall baseball, which is considered to show weakness in the bullpen compared to the starting lineup. Concerns have grown due to the sudden failure and cancellation of the starting pitcher, but there is no problem in taking the mound in autumn baseball.
