I got one speed. However, there is still a long way to go before entering the MLB roster.

LA Dodgers' Kim Hye-sung (26) recorded his third hit in the 2025 Major League exhibition game. Again, it was an infield hit thanks to fast feet rather than long balls.

Kim Hye-sung played in the MLB exhibition game against the Los Angeles Angels at Diablo Stadium in Tempie, Arizona on the 6th (Korea time). He was substituted as a second baseman in the bottom of the sixth inning when the Dodgers were leading 5-3. The batting order was nine.

Kim Hye-sung played a double play in the first defensive inning of the day. With one out and a runner on the first base, Los Angeles Angels Yoan Moncada sent a hit to the third baseman. Kim Hye-sung quickly entered the second base cover and received a throw from the third baseman to force out the first baseman. He then turned and threw to first base. The throwing direction was not good. However, first baseman Michael Chavis fell sideways and snatched the ball to fill the third out count and complete the double play.

After that, Kim Hye-sung faced his first at-bat after one out in the top of the seventh inning. The opposing pitcher was Chase Sileseth. Kim Hye-sung sprinted after hitting a ground ball in front of the first baseman, but Silseth's first base cover was faster.

Kim Hye-sung, who failed to get a hit in his first at-bat, caught Gustavo Campero's ground ball after one out in defense in the bottom of the eighth inning and threw it accurately to first base to add an out count. He then entered the batter's box for the second time in the top of the ninth inning with two outs and a runner on second base.

This time, he produced a hit. He hit the fourth pitch from the ball count 1B-2S. The ball rolled slightly slower in front of the second baseman. Kim Hye-sung sprinted. In the end, he made an infield hit by hitting the base faster than the throw. The runner on second base was also sent to third base. However, there was no follow-up hit, so the score was not recorded.

It was Kim Hye-sung's third hit in this exhibition game. Kim Hye-sung made his first hit in the exhibition game into an infield hit, and achieved his third hit with an infield hit. The second hit was a home run. He hit a home run in an exhibition game against the San Francisco Giants on the 2nd.

Kim Hye-sung's batting sense is still not good, although he seems to be recovering little by little. He has only three hits in 19 at-bats, including one hit in two at-bats on the day. The batting average is only 158. It is expected that it will be possible to enter the Major League roster only if it works harder.
