An unexpected injury. 'Transferred student'Kim Sung-wook was removed from the first team entry due to a side injury.

SSG Landers canceled outfielder Kim Sung-wook and infielder Kim Tae-yoon ahead of the match against the KIA Tigers in Incheon on the 22nd, and registered outfielder Chae Hyun-woo and infielder Ahn Sang-hyun.

Kim Sung-wook, who SSG acquired through a trade with the NC Dinos on the 7th by giving up the fourth round of the rookie draft and 50 million won in cash, has been gradually taking the opportunity to play since the transfer. He also recorded three hits against the LG Twins on the 10th and two hits against the Kiwoom Heroes on the 17th, 'Multi-Hit'.




However, he was hampered by a side injury. Kim Sung-wook, who started as the second batter and left fielder against KIA on the 21st, finished the game when he was replaced by Oh Tae-gon ahead of the defense in the top of the sixth inning after recording consecutive third-base grounder in the first and second at-bats.

The reason for the replacement is right flank pain. SSG manager Lee Soo-yong, who met with reporters ahead of the match against KIA on the 22nd, said, `Seong-wook is not feeling well. That's why I missed the game yesterday. I got a side injury. It is said to be the opposite part of the last injury (left side). I have to go through a checkup on Monday (23rd), but I thought it would be difficult to move, so I thought it would be better to take a break, so I canceled it,' he explained.
