Shocking, the worst.

I can only express it like this. Samsung's captain and half of Samsung's offense Koo Ja-wook were replaced in one inning. It's a knee injury. From the perspective of the Samsung Lions, we have to pray that it is not a major injury.

Koo Ja-wook started as a third-left fielder in the second playoff game against the LG Twins at Samsung Lions Park in Daegu on the 15th.

Koo Ja-wook had three hits, including a decisive three-run shot, in Game 1 on the 13th, and became the main player of the victory. However, he failed to participate in the Daily MVP award ceremony. This is because he was taken to the hospital due to symptoms of vomiting and dizziness after the game.

Koo Ja-wook is said to have been struggling with severe headache symptoms even before the game. So he doesn't look good throughout the game. However, I played the game with as much patience as possible because I was afraid of damaging my teammates.

Fortunately for Koo Ja-wook and Samsung, the game was canceled due to rain on the 14th. Koo Ja-wook was given enough time to rest. Ahead of the delayed second game on the 15th, Samsung coach Park Jin-man said "I think Koo Ja-wook has come up to 80%"

Koo Ja-wook hit a right-handed hit from his first at-bat in the first inning of Game 2 and showed off his strong batting sense in pain.

But there was a problem. Koo Ja-wook attempted to steal second base. Safe. But he held his left knee. The trainer rushed out. After checking the condition, he remained on the ground for now. However, he couldn't run properly when Diaz doubled on the left-field line, limped home. There must have been a problem with the knee.

Looking at the slow screen, Gu Ja-woo folded his left leg and extended his right leg to aim for second base with a bent leg sliding. However, the folded left leg should be gently slid to the ground, but it was caught and shocked the morph. It was highly likely that the leg did not fall out properly because the ground soil was soft due to the heavy rain from the previous day. Even if the tarpaulin continued to be covered, it was an environment in which rain permeated and the soil was inevitably thick in humid weather.

Koo Ja-wook was immediately replaced by Lee Sung-kyu ahead of the defense in the top of the second inning. The Samsung club said that `Koo Ja-wook will go to the Samsung SM radiology clinic for a checkup.' If the knee is tripped and sprained like this, the ligament can be injured. A ligament injury will inevitably hurt Samsung, which is still in the midst of the playoffs.
