KT Wiz is on high alert. Main right fielder Ahn Hyun-min (23) and third baseman Huh Kyung-min (36) were replaced by hamstring pain.

KT faced a major negative factor in the 2026 Shinhan SOL KBO League regular season NC Dinos' away game at Changwon NC Park on the 15th.

The start was in the top of the fourth inning with KT leading 4-0. The leadoff hitter Huh Kyung-min hit a double to right-center. However, a slight distortion of the face in the process of passing first base hampered him. Heo Kyung-min, who kept the second base until Junghoon Lee's at-bat, was replaced by Kim Sang-soo ahead of Sam Hilliard's at-bat.

Heo Kyung-min, who walked with the trainer, was a little limp compared to the situation afterwards, was fortunate.

Ahn Hyun-min was seriously injured in the top of the sixth inning when KT was leading 4-0. He came out as the leadoff hitter and made a deep hit toward the shortstop with a strong hit. The ball hit shortstop Kim Joo-won's glove attempting a sliding catch and became a left-handed hit.

However, Ahn Hyun-min, who was running to second base, quickly returned to first base after falling with pain. Ahn Hyun-min slumped down and complained of pain, eventually limping and was helped by a trainer and replaced by Bae Jeong-dae.

An official from KT said, "Huh Kyung-min was replaced with left hamstring discomfort after running base in the fourth inning, and Ahn Hyun-min was replaced with right hamstring pain after running base in the sixth inning. It is a replacement for player protection, and after icing, he will undergo a hospital examination," he said.

Meanwhile, KT is leading 9-0 until the top of the seventh inning, with starter Oh Won-seok's six scoreless innings and Kim Hyun-soo and Jang Sung-woo hitting consecutive home runs, respectively.
