There was an injury gap in the Kiwoom Heroes outfield.
Kiwoom coach Hong Won-ki said ahead of the LG Twins game in Jamsil on the 10th, “Lee Yong-gyu is not a big injury, but due to wrist pain, I will decide for the time being. He had to give me bad news again,” he said.
Veteran outfielder Lee Yong-kyu has secured a batting average of 0.250, 7 RBIs, and 11 runs in 28 games this season until this day, firmly guarding the corner outfield of the ‘Hero Corps’. Recently, Kiwoom is experiencing a slump in the batting line as a result of the poor batting condition of key outfielders such as Lee Jung-hoo and Lee Hyung-jong, but as even Yong-gyu Lee, who had a good pace, was injured, the red light was turned on for the operation of the outfield.토토사이트
Lee Yong-kyu showed a good hitting feeling in the match against LG on the 9th, right before he missed the game. He played an active role with 3 hits, 2 RBIs and 1 run in 4 at-bats, and was the only Kiwoom hitter to create a multi-hit. In the top of the ninth at-bat, he was caught feeling pain in his wrist while hitting, but even during this time, he went on base with a heavy hit and completed a three-hit game. Manager Hong said, “Lee Yong-kyu showed a way to get on base with a hit even while feeling pain. His juniors must have learned something from watching him.”
A club official said, “Lee Yong-kyu felt pain in his right wrist while trying to hit in the top of the 9th inning on the 9th. On the morning of the 10th, he was treated at CM Hospital, where he was diagnosed with a sprained right wrist. On the 11th, he will be checked with a cross through a checkup at another hospital,” he explained.
Instead of excluding Lee Yong-kyu from the starting lineup, coach Hong selected right-hander Park Chan-hyeok as the sixth left fielder. Lim Byeong-wook was named as the center fielder and Lee Hyeong-jong as the right fielder. Lee Jung-hoo took on the designated hitter to reduce the burden on defense.
