Earlier on the 19th of last month, Kim Ha-sung complained of shoulder pain after sliding to the first base when the opposing pitcher was in check.
However, it has been more than a month since he was injured, but his shoulder condition is still not normal.
MLB.COM, the official website of the Major League, updated the injury status of San Diego players on the 21st (local time) and reported the news of Kim Ha-sung.
According to reports, he played batting, defense training and light catch on Tuesday local time. However, he has yet to increase the intensity of his throws due to his shoulder discomfort.
“Kim Ha-sung made a light throw across the diamond (infield). However, his return is not going as smoothly as expected. It is unclear whether he will be able to return within the regular season,” the media outlet said.
Local media expect Kim Ha-sung to return to the ground as early as late September or early October.안전놀이터
San Diego will finish the regular season with an away game against the Arizona Diamondbacks on the 30th, but if it is current, Kim Ha-sung is likely not to return within the regular season.
Instead, San Diego is likely to advance to the postseason as the No. 1 wild card in the National League, so some predict that it will be able to play in the postseason in October.
