In an away game against the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on the 20th (Korea time), Kim Ha-sung started shortstop No. 6 and bowed his head to no hit in four times at bat. San Diego snapped a five-game losing streak by winning 5-2 with its batters focusing on the latter half of the game.
Kim Ha-sung, who missed the match against Philadelphia for the second time this season on the previous day (19th), failed to make a hit in eight of the 17 games he played in June (local time), including no hit. Since he wrote multi-hit games in three games, it should be considered that he is continuing to hit jaggedly.
Due to the slump, his batting average fell to 0.217 (55 hits in 254 times at bat) and his OPS to 0.712. He has hardly escaped the Mendoza line, which means a batting average of around 20 percent.
The starting pitcher of the Philadelphia Phillies on the day was left-handed Ranger Suarez, who has emerged as a candidate for the National League Cy Young Award this season. However, Kim struck out against Suarez and hit an infield grounder. 토토사이트 추천
In his first at-bat after one out in the top of the second inning, when the score was 0-0, Kim Ha-sung struck out swinging at Suarez’s big curveball 74 miles off the fifth pitch at the count of 2B2S. In the second game of the fourth inning, when the score was 1-1, he pulled a sinker 90 miles outside, but he grounded out to shortstop.
In the seventh inning, he went out as the leadoff hitter and hit a grounder to the third base. He hit the sinker towards the right-hander O’Ryan Kirkering’s body, but headed straight to the third base. He got on base due to an error in his last at-bat in the eighth inning with a 2-1 lead. Kim Ha-sung hit a grounder toward the third base with one out and runners on the first and second bases. Philadelphia third baseman Alec Bohm missed it, and all the runners lived while the ball was flowing backward.
With the bases loaded with two outs, San Diego added three more runs with Kyle Higashioka’s triple, widening the gap to 5-1. As Higashioka hit Gregory Soto’s 87-mile slider to center field, center fielder Brandon Marsh missed the ball with a diving catch, the ball fell backward, and all three runners, including first baseman Kim Ha-sung, stepped home. The team is certain to win the game at the last minute.
