Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 12th when the game between Lotte Giants and KT Wiz was held.
Before the game, Lotte's dugout atmosphere was friendly. Because of the dramatic come-from-behind victory in the eighth inning the previous day. In particular, Jang Doo-sung was the talk of the town. Jang Doo-sung struck out in a bases-loaded chance before Reyes' come-from-behind final hit. However, he received a lot of praise from head coach Kim Tae-hyung. This is because he struck out against KT closer Park Young-hyun, who came to the mound, while showing his concentration to the 11th pitch. Coach Kim believes that Park Young-hyun's power was lost due to Jang Doo-sung's struggle, and the reversal took place. Director Kim said "Now we've taken a step up. You're doing a lot better than I expected"I was proud of my student.
Jang Doo-sung was asked to be interviewed by reporters even after striking out. Jeong Cheol-won, who saw it, teased mischievously, saying "Are you interviewing after being struck out?" Jang Doo-sung was also embarrassed.
Jang Doo-sung, who was given a new No. 1 - center fielder role due to Hwang's injury. After being registered as a first-team player for the first time in 2021, he failed to make his name known mainly as a pinch runner and a logistical guard. However, he was serving as Lotte's vitality this season with his accurate contact ability, fast feet, and wide center field defense range. Jang Doo-sung's influence was very large that Lotte was not pushed out of the top-tier fight despite the line injuries of key players such as Na Seung-yeop, Yoon Dong-hee and Hwang Sung-bin. The batting average, which was hard to hit even .200, is .3 this year. He already stole nine bases.

He was also very active on this day. He hit three hits and three RBIs in the first batting order, setting the stage for a great upset victory. Lotte fans also gave tremendous support to the long-term runner's ability to properly relieve his sadness.
But a shocking situation happened. the top of the 10th inning. After one out, he drew a walk against Park Young-hyun. It's been good so far. However, while going back to Park Young-hyun's check, he ended up in an unexpected accident. Park Young-hyun's check ball hit Jang Doo-sung's right side while he was headfirst sliding. When the ball flowed, he ran to second base, but his expression was not good and his main body was not what it was. Finally, he collapsed to reach second base.

And a day later. Horrible news broke. As expected, it was bleeding due to lung bruising. First of all, for stability, he has to be admitted to a hospital in Suwon for four to five days and wait and see the progress. It was such a successful baseball, and I was happy with baseball for the first time in my life, but I had to take a break.
Bad luck makes it hard to have such bad luck. It is often fine even after being hit by a 150-kilometer fastball, but did the relatively slow checker hit the lung accurately. Park Young-hyun also did not get it right on purpose, so we just have to hope that Jang Doo-sung's injury is not big in a situation where it is difficult to judge anyone's fault.
