Kim Ha-sung’s home run and multi-hit again…But San Diego lost again. Shocking 5 times in a row

Kim Ha-sung (San Diego Padres) played drum and janggu, but the team lost again. It’s a five-game losing streak.

Kim Ha-sung started as the seventh second baseman in the 2023 Major League game against the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on the 30th (Korea Standard Time). He had two hits (one home run) and two RBIs and one run in three at-bats. The season’s batting average rose to .258 and the OPS rose to .755.

Kim Ha-sung scored an RBI that brought the first run in the second inning. After one out in the second inning, he entered the batter’s box with one out and runners on first and third base, which was made by Jake Cronenworth’s left-handed hit and Lougned Odor’s heavy hit, and hit Lewis Ortiz’s 85.5-mile slider to pull out a left field sacrifice fly.

San Diego then widened the gap to 3–0 with Trent Grisham’s two-run shot.

And in the top of the fourth inning, Kim Hak-sung entered the batter’s box without a runner with one out, and after a two-ball, two-strike match with Ortiz, he hit a 97.3-mile four-seam to hit a solo home run over the left wall. Kim Ha-sung’s ninth shot of the season. 스포츠토토

Kim Ha-sung stepped down with a grounder to shortstop in his third at-bat in the top of the sixth inning. And in the top of the eighth inning, in the absence of a runner with two outs, he hit a 94.8-mile fastball after a full count against left-hander Angel Pedro to score a double between left and right.

Kim Ha-sung did his part enough. Kim Ha-sung was involved in two of the team’s four points. But San Diego later collapsed.

In the bottom of the fourth inning, he gave up a sacrifice fly to Nick Gonzalez at second and third bases with one out and was chased 4–1. And in the bottom of the sixth inning, Andrew McCutchen hit a double and Henry Davis hit a timely double to chase 4–2.
In the end, Jack Swinsky hit an infield hit to first base in the bottom of the seventh inning with one out and runners on second and third bases, and pitcher Tim Hill’s throwing error to first base led to a 4–4 tie. In the second base with two outs, Henry Davis eventually hit a timely reversal and failed to overturn it. San Diego has lost five games in a row, 37–44 and is gradually moving away from autumn baseball.

Meanwhile, Bae Ji-hwan, who started as Pittsburgh’s №7 second baseman, had no hits and two strikeouts in two at-bats and was replaced by Rodolfo Castro ahead of his left-hander Tim Hill opponent in the bottom of the seventh inning.
