Good news has finally been sent to SSG Landers, the ninth-ranked team in batting. Choi Jung will return next week.
SSG manager Lee Soo-yong announced Choi Jeong's return to the first division at a meeting with reporters ahead of the match against the Incheon KIA Tigers on the 21st. Choi Jung-eun sewed eight needles against the left eye during defensive training against the LG Twins in Jamsil on the 12th.
He was excluded from the first-team entry on the 13th because his batting sense was also low, and he played in two Futures League games against Sangmu on the 17th and 18th. Choi Jung finished preheating by recording three hits in five at-bats (one home run) in two games, and even if he was not registered as an entry, he joined the first-team squad and checked his condition while training.
Director Lee Soo-yong said, `Seeing Jung play today, I think he's almost perfect. So I'm going to use it on Tuesday (24th) while playing defense on third base. I think it will be okay from Tuesday."
SSG will face the Doosan Bears at Jamsil Stadium on the 24th. It means that Choi Jung will return ahead of this game.
From SSG's point of view, it is everywhere. Although there were many injuries, SSG is experiencing ups and downs throughout the season. He is second to last after Kiwoom Heroes with a team batting average of 246. Team OPS also remains at the bottom of most batting indicators, including ninth place, eighth place in team home runs, and ninth place in team scores. With the addition of home run king Choi Jeong, the batting lineup can be more solid.
