What would you do if you beat Ha-seong Kim’s?

What’s the point of overcoming Kim Ha-sung’s “absurd ball decision” and hitting a home run…Reversal loss due to bullpen arson show → 5 consecutive losses, Bae Ji-hwan silent at 25 at-bats in a row

The absurd ball decision also failed to stop Kim Ha-sung (San Diego Padres). He hit his ninth home run of the season. However, the bullpen’s fire show led the team to a come-from-.

Kim Ha-sung started as the seventh batter and second baseman in the 2023 Major League Baseball against the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on the 30th (Korea time) and played with two hits (one home run) and one RBI in three at-bats. Bae Ji-hwan also came out as the seventh batter and second baseman, but he couldn’t get out of the slump with no hits and two strikeouts in two at-bats and no hits in 25 at-bats.

Pittsburgh was in the order of Jack Swinsky (center fielder), Andrew McCutchin (nominated hitter), Henry Davis (right fielder), Carlos Santana (first baseman), Connor Joe (left fielder), Nick Gonzalez (shortstop), Bae Ji-hwan (second baseman), Jared Triolo (third baseman), and Jason Delay (fourth baseman). The starting pitcher is Luis L. Ortiz.

San Diego, where Joe Musgrove started, consisted of Fernando Tatis Jr. (nominated hitter), Juan Soto (left fielder), Manny Machado (3rd baseman), Xander Bogartz (shortstop), Jake Cronenworth (1st baseman), Lugned O’Door (right fielder), Kim Ha-sung (2nd baseman), Trentsham (center fielder), and Austin.

In the top of the second inning, Kim Ha-sung had a chance to score. After one out, Cronenworth and Odor hit consecutive hits, making it first and third base. Kim Ha-sung, who later entered the batter’s box, scored a sacrifice fly RBI and succeeded in taking the lead. Then, Grisham’s two-run home run exploded, leading San Diego 3–0.

Kim Ha-sung showed a good defense in the bottom of the second inning. With no outs and runners on first base, Joe’s ball went toward the second base. The ball seemed to escape to the outfield, but Kim Ha-sung caught the leading player Santana after catching it. Gonzalez then sent a ball toward Kim Ha-sung and first baseman Joe was out at second base. Bae Ji-hwan, who came to bat, then played a persistent game up to 11 pitches, but struck out a foul tip.

In the top of the fourth inning, Kim Ha-sung hit a home run without a runner with one out. The second and fourth pitches were out of the strike zone, but a strike call came out. After making a time request and catching his breath, he hit Ortiz’s 5th ball 97.3 miles (156km/h) four-seam fastball to cross the left fence. This is his ninth home run of the season.

In the bottom of the fourth inning, Pittsburgh recovered one run. Davis’ hit and Santana’s double created a second and third base chance with no outs. Joe struck out, but Gonzalez scored a sacrifice fly RBI. Bae Ji-hwan, who came to bat with two outs and runners on second base, was then struck out.

Kim Ha-sung stepped down with a grounder to shortstop in his third at-bat in the top of the sixth inning.

In the bottom of the sixth inning, Pittsburgh succeeded in narrowing the gap. Leadoff hitter McCutchen hit a double and went out. Davis then hit an RBI timely hit to narrow it to two points.

Bae Ji-hwan finished the game in the bottom of the seventh inning, replacing pinch hitter Rodolfo Castro. He went 0-for-25 at-bats. Since then, he has created a chance to first and third base with no outs with Castro walks and hits with trioles. Delay’s right-handed hit made it to second and third base, and Swinsky sent a missed ground ball toward the foul line at first base. Tim Hill threw the ball to first base after catching it, but a mistake came out and both runners came home. Meanwhile, Swinsky made it to second base. And Pittsburgh changed the mood with Davis’ one-run timely hit.

Kim Ha-sung came to bat in the top of the eighth inning without a runner with two outs and hit a double to create a tie. Pittsburgh overcame the crisis by putting closer David Bedna on the mound and striking out Grisham. 토토

San Diego created an opportunity when pinch hitter Gary Sanchez, who came out as the leadoff hitter in the top of the ninth inning, walked on base. However, after Tatis and Soto struck out, Machado failed to save the opportunity with a grounder to third base, falling into a five-game losing streak. Pittsburgh succeeded in reversing the mood by sweeping three consecutive games against San Diego.
