Lee Jung-hoo, trying to catch a home run hit, fell on his shoulder and was replaced
He crashed into the fence in the first inning of the game against Cincinnati. After the game, it was announced that he was undergoing a thorough examination due to a dislocation. If the injury is serious, there is a possibility of a long-term absence.
Lee Jeong-hoo (26, San Francisco) injured his shoulder while defending and was immediately replaced. At first, it was thought to be a minor injury, but the pain did not go away, so he decided to get a detailed diagnosis.
Lee Jeong-hoo started as the number one hitter and center fielder in the Major League Baseball (MLB) home game against Cincinnati on the 13th. In the top of the first inning, with two outs and bases loaded, Jeong-hoo Lee jumped to catch a home run ball thrown by the opposing batter, Jamer Candelario, and fell to the ground after colliding with the fence. The batted ball hit the top of the fence and fell to the ground, and in the meantime, all three runners hit home.
Lee Jung-hoo, who had been lying on the ground for nearly two minutes, left the stadium with the support of the team's chief trainer who rushed from the dugout. In Lee Jeong-hoo's place, Tyler Fitzgerald was brought in as a defensive back. Lee Jeong-hoo, who missed three consecutive games after being hit in the foot by his own foul hit, returned on this day, but was unable to step up to the plate once due to a shoulder injury and was out of action again.
The San Francisco team initially announced Lee Jeong-hoo's injury as a 'sprained'. However, after the 6-5 win, it was corrected to ‘dislocated’. While a sprain is simply a strain, a dislocation is a condition in which a bone has come out of the shoulder joint. “It doesn’t look good,” said San Francisco coach Bob Melvin, who used the term “separated.” “I’ll have to get a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan tomorrow, but it’s true that it’s not good,” he said. If the examination results reveal that it is a dislocation, it is expected that the patient will be sidelined for quite some time. Depending on the situation, you may be put on the operating table.
Lee Jeong-hoo injured the same area twice during his time with Nexen (now Kiwoom) in the Korean professional baseball league. On June 19, 2018, during the Jamsil game against Doosan, he grabbed his left shoulder while sliding to third base during an attack in the top of the 7th inning. Lee Jeong-hoo, who was diagnosed with a rupture of the labrum that holds the upper arm bone from his shoulder blade, did not return until July 19, a month later. Also, on October 20 of that year, in the second game of the semi-playoffs against Hanwha, he injured the same area while making a sliding catch while on defense in the bottom of the 9th inning and ended up having surgery to repair the labrum. It has not yet been confirmed whether he was injured in the same area this time.
San Francisco has been experiencing a series of injuries to its starting players recently. Before today's game, outfielder Michael Conforto was on the injured list with a thigh injury, and catcher Patrick Bailey was left out of the starting lineup due to a viral illness. 온라인섯다
