There is also a possibility that he will be on the injured list (IL) for the first time since entering the big league.
Kim Ha-sung started as the eighth batter shortstop in an away game against the Colorado Rockies in the 2024 Major League Baseball (MLB) at Coors Field in Denver, Colorado on the 19th (Korea time).
Kim Ha-sung, who appeared as the leadoff hitter in the top of the third inning, hit a 153km/h fastball from opposing starter Bradley Blaylock to make a left-handed hit.
The ball flew fast at 169 kilometers per hour.
Kyle Higashioka struck out, and Blaylock threw a check ball to first base in Luis Aras’ at-bat.
Kim Ha-sung threw himself to return home.
He was declared safe, but Kim Ha-sung soon sent a “replacement sign” to the dugout, complaining of right shoulder pain.
Tyler Wade came out as a pinch runner, and Kim Ha-sung entered the dugout with a painful expression. Maybe because of the pain, he also threw a helmet.
The San Diego club said, “Kim Ha-sung was momentarily unable to move his right shoulder.”
The degree of injury is expected to be disclosed only after the examination is completed.
Kim Ha-sung, who signed a four-year contract with San Diego in 2021, has never been on the IL.
I once felt pain while being hit by a pitcher’s ball and defending, but not enough to be on the IL.
Only after Kim Ha-sung’s examination will be known whether he is registered on the IL.
Kim Ha-sung’s batting average for the season rose from 0.231 to 0.233 (94 hits in 403 at-bats) after three consecutive hits with one hit in one at-bats.토토사이트 순위
