Kim Hye-sung started as the second left fielder in a game against the minor league Triple-A Memphis Redbirds (under the St. Louis Cardinals) at Chicaso Bricktown Ballpark in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma City, USA on the morning of the 1st (Korea time). This is the last rehabilitation game in which Kim Hye-sung will play for the Oklahoma City Comets (under the LA Dodgers). After this game, he is scheduled to return to the big league.
It was the last test stage ahead of his return to the big league. Since the expanded entry will be implemented from September anyway, there is virtually no case that Kim Hye-sung cannot return to the big league. Still, as it is the last rehabilitation game, it is necessary to show good performance ahead of his return to the big league.
Kim Hye-sung performed perfectly in response to this purpose. Not only did he hit multiple hits, including a double, but he also achieved a third base game, including a walk. The final record on the day was two hits, one run, one RBI, and one walk from four at-bats. This means Kim Hye-sung escaped from her left shoulder injury perfectly.
On this day, Kim Hye-sung hit a double from his first at-bat. Kim Hye-sung, who came to bat for the first time after one out in the bottom of the first inning, hit an 89.7-mile changeup that came into the fourth high course with a ball count of 2S to the opponent's starter Curtis Taylor and hit a left-handed double. It was Kim Hye-sung's ninth double of the Triple-A season. However, Kim Hye-sung failed to make it to the home ground as his subsequent hitters ended up with a fly ball to the center field and a ground ball to the third base.

Kim Hye-sung, who went to first base, later scored by pushing three consecutive walks.
Kim Hye-sung, who got on base three times in a row, including a multi-hit, left a regret by striking out consecutively in the bottom of the seventh and ninth innings. However, Oklahoma City, which took advantage of Kim Hye-sung's timely hit, eventually won 4-3 in the bottom of the ninth inning with Luken Baker's come-from-behind two-run timely hit at first and second bases with two outs. Kim Hye-sung was selected as a top performer and posted her face on the Game Day page.
This game is actually Kim Hye-sung's last minor league rehabilitation game.

However, in the first season, he was motivated and tried to overcome the shoulder pain alone, but rather increased his injury. Eventually, I had to go through rehabilitation for a month. The good thing is that the rehabilitation ended well and continued to be in good condition in the rehabilitation game. Kim Hye-sung, who has played in nine rehabilitation games so far, has a batting average of 0.324 (11 hits in 34 at-bats) with three RBIs, five runs and one stolen base.
Manager Dave Roberts has already predicted Kim Hye-sung's big league call-up. September entry expansion made it more affordable. Kim Hye-sung, who finished her last rehabilitation game on the 1st, is expected to join the team on the 3rd after a day off. The Dodgers will play an away game against the Pittsburgh Pirates from the 3rd. When he returns to the big league, he is more likely to go to left field than second baseman or shortstop. Roberts instructed Kim Hye-sung to practice left field while playing in a rehabilitation game.
