SSG Landers Choi Jeong was scheduled to start as the third batter and third baseman in a home game against the Doosan Bears at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 20th. However, during outdoor defensive training before the game, I felt a hamstring pain in my left thigh. The player felt uncomfortable, so he was excluded from the starting lineup, and Choi Jeong went straight to the hospital for a detailed examination. SSG sent Ahn Sang-hyun out as a substitute third baseman.
It's not the area where there was an injury this year. Choi Jeong was out of power due to a right hamstring injury just before the opening of the regular season, and later returned after rehabilitation. Even after returning, he often seems to be concerned about the injured area, but recently, Choi Jung, who completely shook off the aftereffects and showed a good batting pace. However, unexpected hamstring pain occurred on the other side.
Choi Jeong was examined at two hospitals for cross-checking. However, there is a difference in the opinions of both sides. An official from the SSG club said "The opinions of the two hospitals are slightly different. I don't think I can come to a conclusion today. Tomorrow (21st) is Sunday, so the examination is difficult, and I think I will be able to check again on the 22nd, Monday, to check for a clear condition.'
Choi Jung-eun cannot avoid missing the three consecutive home games against Doosan in Incheon from the 20th to the 22nd. After a re-examination on the 22nd, the timing of return may be determined. For SSG, the damage is huge. He has hit five home runs in the last 10 games, which has increased his hitting sense. On top of that, while the team is still in fierce competition for third place, the concern grew as the home run hitter was excluded.
