Will Son Ah-seop be able to make a miraculous last-minute return? "Battling starts next week"

NC Dinos Son Ah-seop suffered a major injury in early July. On July 4, against Changwon SSG Landers, a knee injury occurred when he collided with his teammate, second baseman Park Min-woo, during defense in the top of the second inning. He left the ground on the sidelines, but the situation was not serious immediately after the injury.
However, the next day, the hospital's detailed examination fell off. Damage to the posterior cruciate ligament of the left knee. I did cross-checks at various hospitals, and fortunately, I did not have to undergo surgery, but considering the recovery period and rehabilitation schedule, it was actually seen as a season out.
After that, Son Ah-seop went through the recovery process step by step. Fortunately, his condition recovered relatively quickly and he entered the rehabilitation process. Son Ah-seop took the process of rebuilding his body step by step in the rehabilitation group.
NC manager Kang In-kwon, who met ahead of the match against Incheon SSG on the 1st, said, `I think Son Ah-seop will start batting practice next week. Then, I think I will have another hospital check-up on September 10th and check the exact condition. (If there is no problem after the examination), I think I will go through a practice game or preparation process starting with a perfect pre-batting."
There is also a possibility that Son Ah-seop, who seemed to be out of the season, will join the team before the regular season schedule ends. NC is scheduled to play its final regular-season game against the Doosan Bears on Sept. 28. If Son Ah-seop returns after the middle of the year, the remaining few games will also have the possibility of playing in the first team.
Director Kang In-kwon carefully predicted that `If we prepare well, we may see it by the end of September, but we should look at the progress first.'
