[Taipei (Taiwan) = Reporter Kim Young-rok of Sports Chosun] There are few direct physical fights, but baseball also naturally causes injuries during games.

Typical examples are side pain during swing and ankle injury during running. And one of them is injuries caused by a hit ball.

The first match between the Lotte Giants and the Taiwan WBC (World Baseball Classic) national team was held at Taipei Dome on the 12th. An unexpected injury occurred at Lotte at the end of the game.




On this day, Lotte had two balls that fit its body at the end of the game. In the ninth inning, Jeon Jun-woo walked out to first base without any major injuries.

But in the seventh episode, Mt. Baekdu was different. Baekdusan, who played as a pinch hitter for Information Geun in the absence of a runner with two outs, was replaced after being hit by a strong fastball on his finger on the first pitch. After suffering for a considerable amount of time, he was seen leaving the dugout soon, surprising everyone.

Baekdusan Mountain is from Kaesong High School-Dongui University. After three rounds of rookie drafts, he wore a Lotte uniform as a nurturing player last year. It is a catcher raised by Dongui University when former coach Information Myung was in charge. He is famous as a player with good affinity for local boys from Busan.

At the time of joining the team, Choi Jun-yong introduced himself as "The best best friend in my baseball life, duo," drawing considerable attention among officials. Choi Jun-yong and I are friends who went to elementary and middle schools together.

Last year, he did not have a chance to play in the first team, but this year, he was registered as an official player and was listed on Taiwan's first spring camp list. However, he was embarrassed at the first pitch when he played as a pinch hitter in the game the day before, which was his first real game of the season

Fortunately, it's not a major injury. A Lotte official said "It's a simple bruise. Still, I think it will be difficult to play today because I have some bruises and pain."
