'PO eliminated' Corner leaves for the U.S. just before fall baseball, why? What about the Korean series?

Samsung Lions Koo Ja-wook headed to Japan for emergency treatment for micro-damage treatment.

The return of Koo Ja-wook, the captain and the core of the attack, to the Korean Series is a pressing matter of interest.

There is another player who is curious about whether he will return if he advances to the Korean Series. Connor Seabold (28), who led the season as the first foreign starter.



In the second half of the season, the playoff was finally canceled due to pain in the right shoulder scapula.

He is not currently in Korea either. He left the country before the playoffs for rehab and is currently staying in the U.S.



Connor headed home to California in the U.S. after consulting with the club prior to the first playoff game against the LG Twins.

A Samsung official said, `Connor has never experienced the postseason in the U.S. That's why he has a strong will to play in his first fall baseball. However, as the team's fall baseball began, he expressed his intention to go to the U.S. and find the right person who can focus 100% on him in a short period of time, considering the fact that the team's trainer cannot cling to him 100%."

He is determined to help the Korean Series even with a bullpen. Whether or not you can board is another matter.



The scapular pain that Conor is complaining about is not an easy area to cure. It seems to be okay, but the pain often recurs persistently. Brandon Waddell of the Doosan Bears, who left the club complaining of pain in the same area, also had pain again during the bullpen pitching process following a 15-meter catch. Brandon finally failed to join Doosan's fall baseball team.

The area that serves as a passage between several muscles and joints and is stimulated whenever a pitcher uses his arms and body. As such, there is a possibility of losing stability and pain from various angles.

Connor also met and greeted the team on the last day of the camp before leaving the country.

Corner said, "(I don't have one) but I want you to go to the Korean Series. I will prepare as much as I can when I go to the U.S"I left after promising to return if possible.

Samsung manager Park Jin-man said ahead of a training session at Lions Park in Daegu on the 8th, `Connor and Oh Seung-hwan are not likely to play in the playoffs right now. If we go to the Korean Series with a good game in the playoffs in the future, we plan to check the pitches and physical conditions of the two players, Cono and Oh Seung-hwan once again."

Connor left the game against Hanwha on September 11 due to right scapular pain while pitching in the fourth inning. After recovering from a month's rest, he expected to join the fall baseball league, but he certainly failed to recover from the catch stage, failing to enter the playoff entry.
