What kind of bad luck is this.

Shocking headshot scene came out. With LG Twins' Son Yong-joon in an urgent situation, he suddenly came out as a pinch hitter and had to suffer from the bad luck of being hit by a head shot of a huge fastball. KT Wiz pitcher Heyesus was immediately sent off.

Son Yong-joon played as a pinch hitter in the third inning of the last three consecutive games during the week against KT at Jamsil Stadium on the 31st. Oh Ji-hwan, who had to come out as the sixth batter, did not come out in the chance of 1 out and 1st and 3rd base with the team leading 4-0. He went in behind the dugout, and he urgently prepared a pinch-hitter on the bench.

Director Yeom Kyung-yeop's choice is Son Yong-joon. A second-year college graduate who was called up to the first team two days ago. He played as a starter in the game on Tuesday, hit the finishing hit, and had his first career RBI. A chance to build up another RBI in a chance.

But what's going on? In the 1S situation, Heysus' 149-kilometer fastball flew into Son's head, and Son was hit directly in the head. A shocking head shot to the point where silence flows through Jamsil Stadium.

Fortunately, it was a fast ball, but the helmet seemed to absorb the impact of the ball, and the ball bounced off. If the ball is eaten with the sound of 'puck', the impact is directly transmitted to the head, while if it is fried, it can cause a buffering effect and reduce injuries.




Son Yong-joon, who complained of great pain as soon as he was hit, fortunately got up on his own and walked out toward the dugout. Heysus also approached worriedly and looked at Son Yong-jun's condition, took off his hat and said hello to him, expressing his sorry.

LG let Chun Sung-ho play as a pinch runner. An LG official said, `Oh Ji-hwan has been replaced to protect the player due to mild symptoms of bile in his chest.'
