The NC Dinos swept away a heartbreaker as it was revealed that foreign ace Eric Peddy’s injury is not serious.
An NC official said on Friday, “Peddy was diagnosed with a right anterior hip flexor strain in a hospital examination and is expected to be able to pitch in 10 days. He will not throw until this week and will check his status next week.”
Peddy was removed from the active roster on April 14 after feeling soreness in his right forearm.
With a 10-1 record and a stellar 1.74 ERA this season, Peddy leads the league in wins and ERA. He also ranks second in strikeouts with 89.
Pedi’s extended absence would have been a major setback for NC, as native lefty ace Koo Chang-mo was diagnosed with a three-week injury to the same area.메이저놀이터
However, NC breathed a sigh of relief as Peddie avoided a major injury.
On the day that Pedi was scheduled to pitch, Shin Min-hyuk started in place of him against the Changwon Doosan Bears.
