Eo Jun-seo (20), the infield commander of the Kiwoom Heroes and the main shortstop, was out of power due to an injury. It is an emergency for the Kiwoom team, which fell to the bottom after falling into three consecutive ㅍ.
Ahead of the Lotte Giants match at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 12th, Kiwoom's team officially announced, "Uh Jun-seo, a shortstop, felt uncomfortable with his left quadriceps (muscle in front of his thigh) during the baserunning process and was removed from the first-team entry."
Eo Jun-seo has been playing with high expectations as the team's main shortstop recently, but he was hampered by an unexpected injury that occurred during the game. The quadriceps injury is expected to focus on recovery for the time being, as it is a part that requires careful management due to the nature of shortstop positions where main and quickness are important.
Amid the bad news of the departure of the main shortstop, Kiwoom seeks to rebound with the return of "Ace" Ahn Woo-jin. Ahn Woo-jin, who was registered in the first division on the day, will immediately take the starting mound and break the team's losing streak.
The empty seats of the infield are filled by rookie-level players. Yeom Seung-won, who is registered in the first division, will play second base, and Kim Ji-seok, in particular, took the opportunity to make his debut as a ninth batter and third baseman. Veteran Oh Sun-jin will move to shortstop to minimize Eo Jun-seo's absence due to injury.
On this day, Kiwoom formed the lineup in the order of Lee Joo-hyung (center fielder), Choi Joo-hwan (first baseman), An Chi-hong (designated hitter), Brooks (left fielder), Park Joo-hong (right fielder), Kim Gun-hee (possession), Yeom Seung-won (second baseman), Oh Sun-jin (striker), and Kim Ji-seok (third baseman). The starting pitcher is Ahn Woo-jin.
Ahn Woo-jin is expected to go down from the mound after playing only one inning first. The maximum number of pitches is about 30 pitches. Right-hander Bae Dong-hyun will take the mound after Ahn Woo-jin.
