Kim Ha-sung (30, Tampa Bay Rays) was replaced by back pain ahead of the top of the fourth inning in a home game against the Chicago White Sox at George M. Steinbrenner Field in Tampa, Florida on the 22nd (Korea time).
Kim Ha-sung, who started as the sixth batter and shortstop, came out as the leadoff hitter in the bottom of the second inning and drew a walk. Later, he stole second base, but in the process, back pain occurred.
He endured the pain and defended in the top of the third inning, but he also made an error. The double play was not completed as the throw missed at the first and third bases with one out.

The head coach also felt sorry. Moreover, Kim Ha-sung recently returned from long rehabilitation. In August last year, he injured his shoulder and underwent surgery.
Kim Ha-sung, who signed a two-year contract with Tampa Bay after shoulder surgery, felt hamstring pain in the process of returning, and after returning, he also had calf cramps.
After returning, Kim Ha-sung had a batting average of 2.266, one home run, three RBIs, three runs, four walks, and four steals, with an OPS (long hitting rate + on base rate) of 0.669 in 10 games.
Kevin Cash, trapped in Tampa Bay, said "I think we'll know the exact condition tomorrow. "It's a pity that I've never been hurt like this in my entire career." Kim Ha-sung faithfully conducted rehabilitation training, running, and conditioning training. I hope this will be the last situation to overcome the difficult times.'
Meanwhile, with Kim Ha-sung replaced early, Tampa Bay lost 3-8 and lost for two consecutive games.
