Kim Ha-sung helped the team win with one score and good defense.
Kim Ha-sung started as the sixth batter shortstop in an away game against the Philadelphia Phillies in the 2024 MLB regular season at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on the 20th (Korea time) and had no hits in four times at bat.

Kim failed to target Suarez by striking out swinging in the second inning and hitting an infield grounder in the fourth inning. In the seventh inning, he ended up making an infield grounder from changed right-hander Orion Kirkering.
Kim Ha-sung hit a grounder to the third baseman against Serantoni Dominguez in the eighth inning with one out and runners on the first and second bases, and took first base due to an error by Philadelphia third baseman Alec Bohm. Later, Kyle Higashioka hit a three-run triple, which made San Diego run 5-1, and first baseman Kim Ha-sung also arrived home.
