Jang Doo-sung, the icon of fighting spirit, returned to Sajik Stadium.

Jang Doo-sung and Kim Dong-hyuk, who started receiving funkos in the infield wearing outfield gloves. The powerful sound of energy heated up the atmosphere of the ground.

The Lotte Giants, seeking the second place, will play three consecutive games during the week against the LG Twins at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 1st. Sajik Baseball Stadium was hot enough to sweat just standing still. Amid the training of Lotte players on the home team, a welcome face was noticeable.




Jang Doo-sung, who ran to second base with pain right after being hit by closer Park Young-hyun's check ball in the game against Suwon KT Wiz on June 12, threw up blood and loaded himself into the ambulance. The examination revealed bleeding due to lung bruising, and Jang Doo-sung was removed from the first-team entry the next day.

Despite the pain, Jang Doo-sung, who ran toward second base for his team until the end, devoted himself to recovering from his injury. Head coach Kim Tae-hyung called up Jang Doo-sung, who played two games in the Futures League ahead of the three consecutive games between LG and China.

Jang Doo-sung, who appeared on the ground at Sajik Stadium in good health, sweated with Kim Dong-hyuk in the infield, not the outfield.




In the case of a training hit or a missed hit, the bound hits hit the outfield lawn and bounce in an unpredictable direction are often seen in games.

The infielder backs up the outfielder when he leaves the ball behind, but the moment the outfielder leaves the ball behind, the single hit leads to a long shot, creating a dizzying scene.

Jang Doo-sung, who returned from injury, accurately caught the ball like an infielder and neatly connected it to the first base throw.




Jang Doo-sung and Kim Dong-hyuk were outfielders, so their steps were sloppy, but they sweated repeatedly by training to catch difficult balls.

Lotte is in third place, one game behind LG. Coach Kim Tae-hyung will put Jang Doo-sung, who has returned from injury, into the game right away.

Lotte has set up a starting lineup with Kim Dong-hyuk (right wing), Jang Doo-sung (center fielder), Ko Seung-min (second baseman), Reyes (left wing), Jeon Joon-woo (designated hitter), Park Chan-hyung (third baseman), Na Seung-yeop (first baseman), Jeon Min-jae (striker) and Information-geun (catcher).
