SSG Landers swept away their surprised hearts.

Choi Jung-eun started the game against the Kiwoom Heroes at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 2nd.

Choi Jeong, who entered the batter's box with no outs and runners on first base in the bottom of the first inning with a score of 1-1, hit Kiwoom starter C.C Mercedes' 2 pitches? fastball in 1B. The ball was deflected and hit inside Choi Jeong's left knee, and Choi Jeong complained of pain for a while, and eventually a sign came out that he could no longer play. Eventually, he was replaced by pinch hitter Kim Sung-hyun, and immediately headed to the hospital.




SSG said "Choi Jung was replaced after being hit by a ball he hit inside his left knee. He explained, "I'm going to go to the hospital and get tested."

Fortunately, he avoided major injuries. The SSG said "X-Ray examination showed no specific details such as fractures and bruises."

Choi Jeong hit .231 with 18 homers and 55 RBIs in 81 games this season with an OPS (long hit + on base) of .800. On the 29th and 30th, he started with two home runs and one home run, respectively.




Before the game, SSG ranked third with 61 wins, 4 draws and 58 losses without a ride with the Lotte Giants (62 wins, 6 draws and 59 losses) and the Samsung Lions (63 wins, 2 draws and 60 losses).

Once I avoided a major injury, I was able to breathe a sigh of relief.
