Park Jong-hoon is replaced

Park Jong-hoon (32), the submarine starting pitcher for the professional baseball SSG Landers, was replaced early after being hit by a batted ball during the game.

Jong-Hoon Park was hit on the right arm by a hard ball hit by LG’s lead hitter Austin Dean in the top of the 4th inning, leading 1-0 in the 2024 KBO League home game against the LG Twins held at Incheon SSG Landers Field on the 19th.

Jong-Hoon Park caught the ball that rolled toward first base, threw it, and then fell to the ground.

The SSG bench judged that Park Jong-hoon could not continue pitching and replaced him with Han Doo-sol.

Jong-Hoon Park threw 61 balls in 3⅓ innings on this day, allowing 2 hits, 1 walk, and 1 run, but did not meet the winning pitcher requirements due to unexpected variables.

Before today’s game, he had recorded 1 win, 2 losses, and an average ERA of 7.50 in 3 games this season.

Although he performed poorly in the first two games he played this season, he achieved his first win in a visiting game against KT Wiz on the 13th with 5 hits, 2 walks, 1 walk, 5 strikeouts, and 3 runs in 6 innings.

The SSG club said, “Jong-Hoon Park was hit near his right bicep by a batted ball,” and “We plan to determine whether to undergo a medical examination after checking his condition.” 토토사이트
