Coach Kim Kyung-moon's expression, which was dark due to Floral's anxiety due to injury, brightened up for a while thanks to Ponce.
Coach Kim Kyung-moon's expression was dark when leadoff Floral was injured after being hit in the back of his hand by a fast ball in the previous game.
Hanwha, which won three games and lost three games last week. All of the weekend's three consecutive games against KIA ended with a one-point gap, making people sweat. From Hanwha's point of view, the last game was regrettable.
In the top of the 10th inning, the leadoff hitter Lee Jae-won walked to base. Lee Do-yoon's sacrifice bunt made him hit second base with one out. A dizzying scene was staged during the subsequent Floral at-bat. In the ball count of 0B 2S, KIA closer Jung Hae-young's third pitch 151km fastball came deep into his body and hit the back of Floral's hand at the batter's box.
Immediately after the pitch, Jung Hae-young approached the groove and checked the floreal condition and expressed her sorry. There was pain, but Floral played the game without replacement.
Hanwha failed to come from behind due to a failed follow-up hit. When Kia Tigers' Ko Jong-wook grounded out with one out and runners on the first and second bases in the bottom of the 10th inning, Noh Si-hwan's throw fell to the outfield and suffered a walk-off loss.
Hanwha manager Kim Kyung-moon, who returned home, reported the exclusion of leadoff Floral, who was hit on the back of his hand by the pitch ahead of the three consecutive games between Doosan and China.
After the dune of the back of the hand, Floral received a detailed examination of the hospital on the 9th that a bone fragment on the back of his right hand fell. Hanwha said "MRI test results show bone fragments in the area that were hit, but he said he was not in pain and did not have swelling, so we will prepare for today's game as a pinch runner and watch the condition for two to three days."

The player himself said he could play, but head coach Kim Kyung-moon said he would take about three days to watch the back of Floral's hand. Although it is difficult to hit in the aftermath of the injury to the back of his hand, Floral performed all the rest of the training normally. Coach Kim Kyung-moon left open the possibility of using Floral as a pinch runner.
Floral, who was in a slump at the beginning of the season, began to take a hit when he took the leadoff. From the game against NC on May 21, Floral, who played as the leadoff hitter, was 22 hits, four home runs, and seven RBIs in a batting average of 0.314 70 at-bats when he played as the first hitter.
When leadoff Floral left due to injury, head coach Kim Kyung-moon talked with chief Yang Seung-kwan until just before the start of the game, pointing to the injured area.
