KIA Tigers foreign pitcher James Nail was hit on the back of his hand, but it was reported that it was not a major injury. Even Nail said she would throw another inning, and the coaching staff stopped her.

KIA manager Lee Bum-ho delivered the news of Nail ahead of the 2025 KBO League Doosan Bears match in Jamsil on the 5th.

Nail was hit in the back of her right hand by Jake Cave's pitch after one out in the bottom of the fifth inning with a 3-2 lead over Doosan on the 4th. a very sensitive area for a pitcher. Nail caught the ball that hit her and flowed and even finished throwing it to first base.




The coaching staff visited the mound. Nail showed a strong will to pitch. Yang Eui-ji hit a tiebreaking home run, but completed five innings.

Director Lee Bum-ho said, `There is no problem at all with the results of the X-ray. It is said that there is no pain. There is no problem with the next game." It was a simple bruise.

Director Lee Bum-ho was nervous. I wanted to get off yesterday as well. The requirement for a winning pitcher was also up for grabs, so I asked Nail's doctor. He said he could throw it. If a foreign pitcher gets hurt, it will be a big problem. "It's a big deal if anyone gets hurt, but nail is the first choice."




The surprising fact is that Nail was determined to take the mound until the sixth inning.

Manager Lee Bum-ho said "I heard it's okay because the nail has only about 80 pitches (86 pitches). He said he felt like his pace was coming up a little bit now. He said he can throw more because he feels better. We said no, let's stop throwing," he said with a tongue-in-cheek.

Nail eventually became a winning pitcher as KIA's batters regained the lead in the top of the sixth inning.




Nail has played 78 innings in 13 games this season. He has a 4-1 record and a 2.77 ERA. In other words, he was responsible for six innings every time he came out. Seung-woon does not follow, but he is playing the role of the team's ace properly.
