Park Se-hyeok (33), the homemaker of the NC Dinos, who left due to an unexpected injury during the game, is preparing step by step to return to full strength.
Park Se-hyeok said,스포츠토토 “We will start batting training from today” ahead of the 2023 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO League match against the Lotte Giants held at Changwon NC Park on the 22nd.
Park Se-hyeok, who started playing catch ball the day before, picked up a bat and started full-scale training in one day. Park Se-hyeok revealed that his condition was not bad with his bright voice.
Park Se-hyuk was hit in the head by Guillermo Heredia’s bat while defending at the end of the 6th inning against SSG Incheon on the 14th. In the process of Heredia’s swing, the bat hit the helmet from behind. Park Sae-hyeok immediately fell holding his head and complained of his pain. Upon examination, he said that there was nothing unusual about him, but that the left side of his head was torn and stitched up by 2 to 3 cm.
Before the game on the 21st, NC coach Kang In-kwon explained the condition, saying, “The part that Park Se-hyeok re-examined and sutured opened, so it was slightly sutured again.” Regarding this, Park Se-hyeok said, “At first, there was a lot of blood when it was sewn up, so it was stitched up in a hurry, and then it was sewn up again.” “There was a bit of a pull, but it’s fine now,” he said.
It seems certain that a comeback is imminent. Before the game on the 22nd, Coach Kang said, “I plan to bet outside today and tomorrow and check it.” I’m going to decide after discussing with the coaches whether it’s better to upload it after doing it.” Park Se-hyeok, who was listed on the injured list (IL) on the 15th, can be in the first team from the 25th.
Park Se-hyuk, who transferred through an FA (free agent) contract with NC ahead of this season, is filling the void left by Yang Eui-ji (36, Doosan). Before leaving, he had a batting average of 0.263, 2 home runs, 6 RBIs, and an OPS of 0.754 in 12 games. In particular, on the 7th and 8th against Changwon Kiwoom, he hit home runs in two consecutive games for the first time since his professional debut.
The vacancy of the main catcher was bigger than expected. Backup agent Ahn Joong-yeol (28) is fighting hard, but he had a hard time dedicating a series of wild fights at the end of the game against Lotte on the 21st. NC lost 6-10 in the game on the 22nd and fell into a 4-game losing streak. In the end, it is expected that the stabilization of the home will be achieved only when Park Se-hyuk returns.
