After a month, I had another 3-steal game. Kim Ha-seong (28, San Diego Padres) is raising expectations for ’20-40′ with a pace that could exceed 40 stolen bases.
Ha-seong Kim started as a starter in the 2023 MLB away game against the Houston Astros held at Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas, USA on the 9th (Korean time) and went 4-for-4 with 2 hits, 2 RBIs, 2 runs, 1 walk, and 3 stolen bases.
He was silent in the previous two games with no hits in seven at-bats, but succeeded in rebounding on this day with three on-base performances, including multiple hits. Kim Ha-seong, who also raised his season batting average from .277 1 ri to .273 3 ri (130 hits in 476 at-bats), also increased his OPS from .783 to .786.
온라인카지노Kim Ha-seong, who broke from a no-hitter in 9 consecutive at-bats with a timely hit with 2 RBIs and a right-handed hit in the 3rd inning, succeeded in stealing second base after a walk in the 5th inning. He fell face down on the base and grimaced as if he was in pain during the head-first sliding process, but continued the play without being replaced.
Kim Ha-seong, who went to first base in the 7th inning with a left-field hit, succeeded again in stealing second base with a head-first slide. Although I was in pain when I stole base in the 5th inning, I ran without hesitation and threw myself into it again.
He then followed up with a double steal on second and third base with Juan Soto getting on base on a walk. Both players’ timing was so perfect that Houston catcher Martin Maldonado could not even attempt a throw.
Ha-seong Kim, who had 3 steals for the second time in the season following the game against the Seattle Mariners on the 8th of last month and tied for the most in a single game, increased his season stolen bases to 34. In this category, it ranks 5th in the National League and 8th overall in the Major League, which is the 1st place record within the team.

At the current pace, 39 stolen bases are mathematically possible. Pace that can exceed 40 stolen bases. Kim Ha-seong, who has hit 17 home runs and 34 stolen bases to date, is expected to become the first Korean major leaguer to hit 20 home runs and steal 40 bases. Choo Shin-soo (SSG Landers) joined the 20-20 club three times during his time as a major leaguer, but there were no 20-30 or 20-40 clubs.
Mathematically, it is possible to hit up to 19 home runs, but the pace has dropped off recently. Since his 17th home run of the season against the Miami Marlins on the 22nd of last month, he has not added a home run in the last 16 games. During this period, his batting average dropped to .225 (14 hits in 62 at-bats). It is clear that his power has decreased with only one long hit and two doubles.
However, Ha-seong Kim previously had a no-home run period in 24 consecutive games from May 26 to June 22 and 18 consecutive games from April 11 to May 1. Since he was the type to hit home runs in a certain period of time, he has a good chance of filling the remaining three until he reaches 20 home runs if he gets into the flow just once in the remaining 20 games. /waw@osen.co.kr
