KT Wiz infielder Kim Sang-soo is taking a day off due to injury.

Kim Sang-soo was not listed on the starting list for the Samsung Lions match held at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on the 19th. This is due to finger pain that occurred during the hitting process of the game the previous day.

Before the game, a KT official said "Kim Sang-soo was replaced after suffering pain in the fifth finger of his right hand due to a missed foul ball in the game the previous day." He explained the reason why he couldn't play this season, saying, "There was swelling in the injured area." Before the game, KT Wiz manager Lee Kang-chul said "I can't come out because I was swollen because of the ball that was eaten yesterday. So I changed it in the middle."

Kim Sang-soo, who had played until his third at-bat in the fifth inning against Suwon Samsung on the 18th, the previous day, was replaced when he defended in the top of the seventh inning. Kim Sang-soo was playing ball-to-hand against his former team Samsung, making a timely hit in his second at-bat on the day.

Meanwhile, KT infielder Yoon Joon-hyuk was canceled after a finger fracture was found before the game.

KT said "Yoon Jun-hyuk fractured his third finger on his left side and was told that he needed two to three months to return.", he explained. Yoon Jun-hyuk, who made his first appearance in the first division this season since joining in 2020, was batting .176 in 13 games. With a disappointing end to the season, next year's season is promised.

KT called up infielder Kwon Dong-jin instead of Yoon Joon-hyuk.
