Kim Hye-sung started as the ninth second baseman in an away game against the Miami Marlins at Rondipo Park on the 7th (Korea time) and recorded one hit in two at-bats in his first two at-bats.
In his first at-bat, he was out on an outfield fly. Kim Hye-sung, who took the lead in the top of the third inning with a 1-0 lead, hit a 79.5-mile high curve on Miami right-hander Carl Quantryl's third pitch with a ball count of 1B1S, but was caught by left fielder Kyle Starworth at 248 feet of distance as he floated high to the left. The angle of launch is 49 degrees, and the speed of the ball is 85.1 miles.
In the fifth inning, when the 1-0 lead continued, he hit an 89.5-mile cutter slightly toward Quantryl's seventh pitch with a ball count of 2B2S to lead to a heavy hit.
It was a clean hit by a 90.3 mph line drive. With this, Kim Hye-sung showed off his good condition of continuing his hit streak for two consecutive days following the previous day.
However, in the next batter, Shohei Ohtani, the inning ended as he was tagged out by a check ball thrown by Quantril. After a video review at the Dodgers' request for the challenge, the first decision was maintained.
Kim Hye-sung made his first start as No. 9 second baseman to Miami, which was held at the same place the previous day, and increased the possibility of a long run in the big league with two hits, one RBI, one run and one stolen base from four times at bat.
