The Samsung Lions will play an away game against the Hanwha Eagles at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 7th.
He is in a quagmire for four consecutive losses due to his defeat the previous day (6th). The lineup that came out on the 7th is also not 100 percent. Samsung formed the starting lineup in the order of Kim Sung-yoon (center fielder), Lee Yang-geun (third baseman), Lee Sung-kyu (right wing), Lewin Diaz (designated hitter), Ryu Ji-hyuk (first baseman), Kim Jae-sung (possession), Lee Jae-hyun (striker), Ahn Joo-hyung (second baseman), and Kim Tae-geun (left wing). Captain Koo Ja-wook and main catcher Kang Min-ho were all missing.
Koo Ja-wook was hit in the elbow by Ryu Hyun-jin's pitch in the game on the 6th. He said he was wearing a protector, but the pain was considerable. He also scored after that, but he was replaced by Kim Tae-geun ahead of the defense and finished the game. The test results were simple bruises, but it is not easy to play on this day.
Kang Min-ho was hit in the left knee by Chae Eun-sung's foul ball during defense in the bottom of the eighth inning. Kang Min-ho, who was complaining of pain, was eventually replaced by Kim Jae-sung. Kang Min-ho was also diagnosed with a simple bruise, but it became difficult to play in the game.
Regarding Koo Ja-wook and Kang Min-ho's physical condition, Samsung coach Park Jin-man said, `Honestly, it's not easy to play. Still, it's a day off tomorrow (8th), so I'm going to watch and check my physical condition by Friday."
Samsung has been suffering from a string of injuries recently. Kim Young-woong, who hit 28 home runs last year, was out due to a garaetteau injury, and outfielder Kim Ji-chan also developed hamstring pain. Veteran outfielder Kim Hun-gon has a bad back.

In particular, I expected Lee Sung-kyu to perform well. Lee Sung-kyu hit 22 home runs last year, impressing as a big shot. He started the season late due to a side injury in the spring camp, but he started in earnest, hitting a home run in his second appearance. In the game on the 6th, he also made a hit that could lead to a long hit, although he was caught by Lee Won-seok's good defense.
Coach Park said, `Lee Sung-kyu has returned from injury and is in good condition. Depending on how you support Diaz from the front and back, there can be a scoring route, and I hope Lee Sung-kyu will play well" he said.
