Twins dealt another injury blow as they advance in KBO postseason

The LG Twins secured their first postseason victory of the year on Wednesday night, but paid a heavy price as speedster Shin Min-jae suffered a left hamstring injury. The Twins emerged victorious against the Doosan Bears with a score of 4-1, clinching the wild card spot in the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) postseason at Jamsil Baseball Stadium in Seoul.

Shin Min-jae, who drove in the crucial insurance run in the bottom of the eighth inning, appeared to be limping after bunting down the third base line and scoring from third base when pinch runner Choi Won-young tagged home plate. Despite his limping, Shin initially thought he had only tightness in his hamstring. However, manager Youm Kyoung-youb stated after the game that the situation does not look good, and Shin will undergo further tests tomorrow.
