Shim Woo-joon started as the ninth batter and shortstop in the 2025 KBO League Kiwoom Heroes match held at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 10th.
Shim Woo-joon was hit in the left knee by Kiwoom's left-hander Son Hyun-ki's pitch in his second at-bat in the top of the fourth inning. Shim Woo-joon was immediately replaced by pinch runner Lee Do-yoon.
Fortunately, it wasn't enough to go to the hospital.
An official from Hanwha explained that "Shim Woo-joon was replaced to protect the player due to bruising pain caused by a dune in the left knee area, and is currently icing."
Shim Woo-joon was in a batting slump with a batting average of 0.161 for the season and a batting average of 0.154 for the last 10 games.
However, he appeared as a leadoff hitter in the top of the third inning and hit a left-handed hit against Kiwoom starter Kim Sun-ki.
Shim Woo-joon went to third base with his fast feet on Floral's hit. After that, he scored with a sacrifice fly to create Hanwha's first score.
Meanwhile, Hanwha is on a 10-game winning streak. He will try to win 11 consecutive games for the first time in 33 years since 1992.
