The bat of Ha-seong Kim of the San Diego Padres in the US Major League was silent for three consecutive games.
Ha-seong Kim started as the 8th hitter and second baseman in the 2023 major league home game against the Cleveland Guardians held at Petco Park in San Diego, California on the 14th (Korean time) and recorded no hits and 1 strikeout in 4 at bats.메이저사이트
He wasn’t good from the start. He stepped out as the leadoff batter in the bottom of the second inning, but was retiring after striking out Cleveland starter Tanner Vivier standing.
The second at-bat at the end of the 4th inning and the third at-bat at the end of the 6th inning were ground balls by the shortstop, and the last at-bat at the bottom of the 8th inning was a floating ball by the first baseman.
Kim Ha-seong’s batting average for the season fell to 0.236 as his hitting sense faltered with no hits in three consecutive games. With a monthly batting average of 0.212 in June, the good trend in May seems to have come to a halt.
Meanwhile, San Diego defeated Cleveland 6-3 amid home runs by Gary Sanchez and Fernando Tatis Jr. With 32 wins and 34 losses in the season, he is one step closer to recovering his 50% win rate.
