Lotte's Jang Doo-sung drew a walk against KT Wiz in the top of the 10th inning of extra time against Suwon KT Wiz on the 12th.
Jang Doo-sung, who struck out Park Young-hyun the previous day after a full-count blood clot going up to 11 pitches, but exhausted Park Young-hyun allowed a walk and a timely hit, setting the stage for a great upset.
This time, he went to the mound as a runner who could score the winning point at a 7-7 tie. But an unexpected accident happened. Park Young-hyun's first base check ball hit Jang Doo-sung's right side.
The ball that hit Jang Doo-sung's body and fell out rolled into the foul area, and Jang Doo-sung ran to second base. On this day, Lotte won 12-7 after extra-time blood fight with the players' fighting spirit.
However, Jang's condition was unusual. In the process of going to second base, he did not speed up unexpectedly, the best quasi-leg in the league, and his face was full of pain. He managed to get a safe declaration at second base, but he threw blood out of his mouth. He was taken to the hospital via an ambulance that came in immediately. Even after winning, Lotte players, including Son Ho-young, were not happy, worrying about Jang Doo-sung.
The result of the detailed examination is 'Blood due to lung bruising'. Lotte said on the 13th that `Depidermal is bleeding due to lung bruising as a result of the examination. After hospitalization for four to five days, he/she will return to Busan to observe the progress, he/she said. Like boxing's river shot, fastball pitcher Park Young-hyun's check ball hit Jang Doo-sung's lungs.

He opened his eyes little by little with 71 games and 14 steals last year, and was reborn as a main outfielder in the first division in his eighth year as a professional. He has a batting average of .330 (on-base plus slugging) of .712 this season, playing a leading role in charge. It is a record reminiscent of 2022 when Hwang Sung-bin first rose to stardom.
Hwang Sung-bin brilliantly filled the spot where he was injured. He added speed and desperation to the team with nine stolen bases. With the outfield, where Yoon Dong-hee was also injured, and Reyes, who has strong shoulders but does not have a wide range of defense, playing in right field, the defensive burden given to Jang Doo-sung was different.
In the match against Samsung on May 18, he suffered from the fifth inning 'Headshot'Dune. Fortunately, it passed without any major problems, but this time it's such a painful injury. It's especially unfortunate that it's not your fault.
Jang Doo-sung actually seems difficult to play in the first half. The hospital stay is almost a week. After that, recovery, rehabilitation, and actual sensory recovery should be considered.

Hwang Sung-bin, who was previously out due to a thumb injury, was also likely to be out in the first half. We need to see the recovery situation in the future, but Hwang Sung-bin's early return may be more likely to fill the power gap.
Currently, Lotte has only Kim Dong-hyuk left as a center fielder in Lotte's first team. In the second division, Cho Se-jin and Yoon Soo-nyeong are also players with experience in center field. While maintaining the top three for the first time in a long time, bad news is continuing. Director Kim Tae-hyung's mind has become more complicated.
