It’s not just hitting and defending that are great. Ha-seong Kim (San Diego Padres) boasted a dazzling run sense by recording three stolen bases in one game for the first time since his major league debut.
Kim Ha-seong started as the first hitter and second baseman in an away game against the Seattle Mariners in the major league held in Seattle on the 10th (Korean time), recording 1 hit, 1 walk and 1 run in 3 at-bats.
Kim Ha-seong stayed on base once with one hit in the last game, ending his multi-on-base streak with 15 games. Kim Ha-seong showed off his outstanding ability as a leadoff by writing a multi-on-base game again in one day.
Above all, he had a good sense of stealing the base. Kim Ha-sung added three stolen bases to record 27 steals this season. This is the first time that Kim Ha-sung has recorded three steals in a game. “Multi-Steel” is the third time in his career, and he has recorded it all this season.
Kim Ha-sung won the water fight with Seattle Battery after walking on base in the top of the first inning, and when the next batter Fernando Tatis Jr. entered the batter’s box, Seattle starter Emerson Hancock succeeded in stealing second base without missing the timing of throwing a relatively slow ball with an 84 mile changeup.
Kim Ha-sung then succeeded in stealing third base from Juan Soto’s at-bat. When a 92 mph sinker came into the high course, he jumped to third base. But Seattle catcher Carl Raleigh didn’t even respond. He didn’t seem to have expected a steal to third base, and Kim Ha-sung’s start was sophisticated enough to steal the opponent’s battery timing.
Since then, Kim Ha-sung has stepped home to score when Soto’s infield ground, but due to his sprint and bold home sliding, the opponent’s defense had no place to play at home. It was a goal made by Kim Ha-sung’s pioneering eyes and feet.
Kim Ha-sung hit a heavy hit in the third inning with one out and a runner on first base, and hit a 93 mile sinker accurately. The Seattle battery kept the first baseman in check, striking out once when Tatis Jr. caught a ball count in favor of the pitcher at bat.
However, Kim Ha-sung stole second base regardless. This time, I started at the timing of throwing a change-up.
Kim Ha-sung made his own scoring opportunity again this time, but the scoring opportunity was canceled as Tatis Jr. and Soto stepped down with infield grounder one after another.
Choi Ji-man, who started as the designated hitter No. 7, recorded no hits and one walk in one at-bat, and was replaced with a pinch hitter in the top of the sixth inning to finish the game.
San Diego lost to Seattle 1-6 despite Ha-sung Kim’s early performance. 2nd hitter Tatis Jr. and 3rd hitter Soto failed to create synergy with lead-off Kim Ha-seong, who made a multi-on-base run, as they were both silent with no hits.
Starter Darvish Yu pitched 6 scoreless innings. The game was balanced 1-1 until the 7th inning. However, Seattle’s Raleigh hit a two-run home run that broke the balance in the bottom of the eighth inning, and Seattle added three runs to seal the game.
Ha-seong Kim maintained a batting average of 0.288 for the season, and the on-base percentage rose slightly to 0.384. He also scored his 63rd point on the season.
