KT infielder Shim Woo-jun
Woo-jun Shim (29), who played as the starting shortstop for the professional baseball team KT Wiz, returned to the team after completing his military service.
KT registered Woo-Jun Shim to the first team ahead of the game against Kiwoom Heroes to be held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 16th.
Woojun Shim, who left the first-team stage after playing against LG Twins on October 11, 2022 and played for the Armed Forces Athletic Corps (Sangmu), is about to make his first-team return in 644 days.
Woo-Jun Shim, who was drafted by KT in the 2nd special draft in 2014, played in 1,119 games in the first team, recording a batting average of 0.253, 28 home runs, 681 hits, and 247 RBIs.
In the Futures League, he had a batting average of 0.213 in 64 games last year, and this year, he had a batting average of 0.288 in 45 games.
As he had played in a Futures League match as a member of Sangmu until the 12th, just four days ago, it seems that he will have no problems with his match sense.
This time, infielder Kwon Dong-jin, who was discharged from the Sangmu team along with Shim Woo-jun on the 15th, also returned to the first team.
Dong-jin Kwon, a first-round pick by KT in 2021, had a career batting average of 0.210 in the first team, and hit two home runs with a career batting average of 0.260 in the Futures League.
Along with this, KT added right-handed pitcher Lee Sang-dong to the first-team roster.
Lee Sang-dong recorded 1 loss, 3 holds, and an ERA of 6.16 in 17 first-team games this season.
On the 15th, KT removed infielders Shin Bon-gi and Park Min-seok and right-handed pitcher Moon Yong-ik from the first team. 토토사이트
