The LG Twins, a professional baseball team that challenged themselves to win the grand match, faced a huge bad news ahead of the fateful final match of the regular season.
An LG official said on the 30th, "Oh Ji-hwan injured his left shoulder during defense in the 8th inning in the game the previous day."
Oh Ji-hwan is scheduled to head to Seoul on the same day for re-treatment and detailed examination.
As a result, it was impossible to participate in the final match.
It's a problem even after reaching the postseason.
Oh Ji-hwan has a batting average of 0.254, 8 homers, 57 RBIs, 12 stolen bases, and an OPS (on-base percentage + slugging percentage) of 0.691 in 134 games this season.
Although his batting performance is mediocre, Oh Ji-hwan, who boasts the league's best defense as a shortstop, the core of the team's defense, is an irreplaceable resource for LG.
LG wins the final match of the season against the Lotte Giants held at Sajik Stadium in Busan on this day, and if the joint first place Samsung Lions and kt wiz draw or lose side by side, they will take the first place in reverse.
But before the final match, a major bad news occurred.
As Oh Ji-hwan moved to Seoul on this day, he had to play the final game with the burden of defense at shortstop.
