During the practice game, Baek Jung-hyun was diagnosed with a microfracture of his right thumb and bruising around his eyes due to a batting accident in his hand and face.
Baek Jung-hyun took the mound as the second pitcher in the top of the fourth inning after Blue and White team starter Lee Seung-hyun at Daegu Lions Park on the 9th.
Kim Heon-gon at-bat in the lead. Kim Heon-gon hit the second high ball after the first strike. A hit like a clothesline headed for Baek Jung-hyun.
The ball headed to the face through the right hand. Baek Jeong-hyun collapsed in the strong shock. Everyone was surprised. Batter Kim Hun-gon rushed to the mound without even thinking of running to first base.

However, he was a player who didn't show much pain, and he didn't have a small impact. It was too much to continue the pitch. The trainer drew an X by hand, and was helped and replaced. Baek Jung-hyun's expression on his way back to the bench was distorted by pain.
The Samsung club said, `Baek Jung-hyun was replaced by a ball in the eye area of his face. We will move to Semyung Hospital and undergo a medical examination," he said. After the game, a Samsung official said "CT and X-ray examinations revealed microfractures of the right thumb and bruising of the left eyelid."
Baek Jung-hyun, who had just recovered from his injury and was about to enter the playoff entry, is on the verge of ending the fall baseball due to the batting accident. Initially, he was going to add strength to the bullpen in the playoffs, but it was canceled.
Meanwhile, Lee Sung-kyu returned to the dugout during his second at-bat in the fourth inning as he felt uncomfortable in his back at the ball count of 1B2S. A Samsung official said, `I changed my player's protection car because I felt stiff in my back.' Lee Sung-kyu did not take the batter's box afterwards, but only played left field defense.
