KT Wiz Huh Kyung-min (36), who was hit in the face by the pitch, was found to be not a major injury. Despite the shock, he gave comfort to opposing pitcher Um Sang-baek (30, Hanwha Eagles) and showed warm companionship.
KT manager Lee Kang-chul (60) told reporters ahead of the game against Hanwha at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 1st, "He said Heo Kyung-min has a little dizziness, but the hospital examination showed no problems," adding, "I told him to just rest today, but he said he would rest at the stadium." I was surprised that the glasses flew away, but fortunately, they brushed them," he said.


Heo Kyung-min came to the batter's box with one out and second base in the top of the fifth inning of the game the previous day (March 31) and was hit in front of the helmet by Um Sang-baek's 146km/h four-seam fastball at a ball count of 0-1. Fell to the ground with his glasses and helmet off, he couldn't get up for a while. Um Sang-baek, who suffered a headshot Red Card, also approached the batter's box and watched Heo Kyung-min with a surprised and worried look.
After lying down for about two minutes, Heo Kyung-min fortunately moved himself to his feet. Then, he immediately caressed Um Sang-baek's arm, which was standing next to him, with his left hand. It's like, "It's okay." Don't worry too much,' he seemed to comfort him. Even though he was very surprised, he did not forget his consideration for his junior.
Heo Kyung-min led his team's three-game winning streak with six hits, one homer and four RBIs in 10 at-bats in three games until the previous day. His batting average (0.600) is No. 1 overall.
KT started Oh Yoon-seok instead of Huh Kyung-min as third baseman on the day. Manager Lee said, "(Heo Kyung-min) is not enough to exclude the entry. I think today's pinch hitter will be difficult, and I will decide whether to select the game tomorrow (2nd)."
