Ha-seong Kim, no hits in 3 consecutive games… San Diego 7-game winning streak

With Kim Ha-seong (28) hitting in three consecutive games, the San Diego Padres had a seven-game winning streak.

Ha-seong Kim recorded 1 hit in 5 at-bats in the 2024 American Professional Baseball Major League (MLB) visiting game against the Baltimore Orioles held at Oriole Park at Camden Yards in Baltimore, Maryland, USA on the 28th (Korean time).

Ha-seong Kim improved his batting skills by hitting in three consecutive games, but maintained his season batting average at 0.229.

Kim Ha-seong, who started as the 8th hitter and shortstop, took his first at-bat in the top of the second inning with one out and runners on first and third base, but ended up swinging and striking out.

In the second at-bat in the top of the fourth inning, when San Diego was ahead 3-0, he was out due to a fly ball to center field.

In the top of the sixth inning, a well-hit straight ball was unfortunately caught by right fielder.

Kim Ha-seong, who came out with a heavy hit in the top of the 8th inning, failed to score a run as he did not have a follow-up hit, and struck out again with a missed swing in the top of the 9th inning with 2 outs and runners on third base.

San Diego won 9-4 with 14 hits, including Manny Machado’s 3-run home run in the top of the 7th inning.

San Diego, which continued its upward trend, had a 7-game winning streak, the most of the team’s season, increasing its chances of advancing to the fall baseball season.
