"I'm a junior coach, but...."

Incheon SSG Landers Field on the 10th. Hanwha Eagles faced a dizzying scene during an exhibition game against SSG Landers.

An Chi-hong, who came out as the leadoff hitter in the top of the fourth inning, was hit on the left hand by a fastball thrown by SSG starter Song Young-jin.




An Chi-hong collapsed and complained of pain. In the end, he could no longer play and was replaced by Lee Do-yoon and a pinch runner.

He immediately went to the hospital for a checkup. A situation where even a fracture can be suspected because it is the part of the hand holding the bat. For Hanwha, Ahn Chi-hong, who thought of the main second baseman, was more worried.

Fortunately, he avoided major injuries. The X-ray test showed no significant abnormalities. An Chi-hong returned to the dugout at the end of the game after the hospital check-up.

Hanwha coach Kim Kyung-moon said on the 11th, the next day, "Fortunately, he was hit by the blade of his hand, not the back of his hand." Chihong must have been surprised because he's been hit by his hand about three times"I'm glad it's this much. If you get hurt while playing like this, you have to rest for six months. Then the other person feels sorry, and we are not as good as we are."

Ahn Chi-hong also returned from training on the 11th and said "It's okay." For now, An Chi-hong took a break from the game on the 11th. Coach Kim said, `I'm going to take a day off, and there's no game on the 12th, so I'm going to start again the day after tomorrow (13th)."
