Perhaps the runner-up of the Los Angeles Dodgers will be decided on a day of destiny. Roberts suddenly suggested a running competition with Kim Hye-sung, the fastest runner in the Dodgers. Considering the importance of Game 6 of the World Series, it's not an easy idea. Roberts took the lead in raising the atmosphere of the team by sacrificing himself.
Roberts called out Kim Hye-sung while training ahead of Game 6 of the World Series against the Toronto Blue Jays at the Rogers Center in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on the 31st (Korea time). Kim Hye-sung put his foot on the first base and prepared to run, and Roberts got an advantage and settled down halfway between first and second bases. Kim Hye-sung showed confidence in her victory, gesturing that she could go a little further.
Let's start the race. Roberts and Kim Hye-sung started the sprint. The moment Kim Hye-sung almost caught up with Roberts near the second base and tried to go around the second base to third base. Roberts fell to the ground. All the players and coaches on the ground and dugout burst into laughter, and Kim Hye-sung, who was sprinting, also approached Roberts and examined his physical condition while holding back his laughter.
Roberts pretended to limp one leg with a cringe of laughter. The front of Roberts' Dodger Blue hoodie was covered with infield dirt.
The pressure on the Dodgers team could not have been greater ahead of Game 6 of the must-win World Series, according to the U.S. sports media 'The Athletic'. Roberts suggested a running competition with rookie Kim Hye-sung to get rid of this pressure. Of course, Roberts started from a position a little ahead of him. When he was about to go halfway around second base and head to third base, the 53-year-old Suso's face was planted in the ground. The players and staff were seen doing their best to hold back their laughter,' the report said.

Roberts was a player with good focus when he was a player.
The Athletic said 'Roberts had 234 steals while playing in the major leagues for 10 seasons as a player. When he played for the San Diego Padres in 2006, he hit 49 steals at the age of 34. He was sixth in stolen bases that year, and he would have tied for the lead in the Major League this year. There were only 58 stolen bases throughout their careers,' it said.
However, he could not outrun Kim Hye-sung, who is now in his prime.
Why did Roberts decide Kim Hye-sung, who played only one game as a pinch runner throughout the postseason, as a showdown. It seems to have given a message that he is always thinking even if he does not give a chance, he is not the first player who has pressure to start.
The Athletic claimed that it chose the strongest opponent in the Dodgers.
The media said it was easy for Roberts to decide why he would face Kim Hye-sung. Kim Hye-sung's sprint speed is the fastest in the Dodgers. He is one of the fastest players in the Major League, beating Fernando Tatis Jr. of the San Diego Padres and Jose Ramirez of the Cleveland Guardians. If Roberts' goal was to relieve the team's tension, I think the mission was accomplished.'
When reporters worried about his physical condition at a press conference held after the match against Kim Hye-sung, Roberts said, "I have medicine." It's all right. I've recovered."
