Kim Ha-sung started as the sixth shortstop in Game 2 of the three consecutive away games against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field on the 3rd (Korea time) and hit a hit in his 3rd at-bat.
Kim Ha-sung, who stepped down with a pitcher groundout in his first at-bat after one out in the top of the second inning when he was 0-0, hit a groundout to shortstop in the fourth inning with two outs and no runners, and Cubs left-hander Imana was tied tightly to Shota. His career performance against Imanaga is 0 for 5.
However, he finally reported his first hit in his Atlanta uniform after one loss in the top of the seventh inning, trailing 3-4.
After facing Cubs left-hander Drew Pomerantz and ball count 2B2S, he pushed an 86.7 mile knuckle curve that fell outside the sixth pitch to create a clean hit in front of right field. The batting speed was 102 miles (164.2 kilometers), indicating that his batting condition was back on track after returning from injury.
Ellie White then struck out swinging, and Sean Murphy was out with a fly ball to the second base, so he couldn't advance further.
