KIM is an Excellent and Humble Professional
Kim Ha-sung was so good.
The San Diego Padres, led by head coach Mike Shildt, won 5-4 in a special game against the LG Twins in the 2024 MLB World Tour Seoul Series at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 18th.
San Diego, which will play the historic MLB Seoul Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers on the 20th and 21st, has completed two special games. It has won two consecutive games following a 1-0 victory over Team Korea the previous day.
Starting pitcher Dylan Cease, who made his San Diego debut on the day, allowed one hit one homer and two strikeouts and one run in two innings. Lee Woo-oho’s Matt Waldron allowed three hits, one strikeout and one run in 3.1 innings, Adrian Morehorn allowed 1.2 innings and one scoreless inning for Rand Vazquez.
Then, as predicted before the game, Go Woo-suk came up. Go Woo-suk failed to finish the game without allowing any points. He was hit with a home run by Lee Jae-won when he had one out and runners on the first base. He garnered some saves, but he felt uncomfortable. He appeared in five exhibition games and failed to end his slump, which only amounted to 12.46 ERA in 4.1 innings.
After the game, Shildt said, “You did a great job. You did a great job. I liked your first and second home runs.”
The following is a question-and-answer session with Shildt.
Q. Kim Ha-sung is receiving a lot of attention
“You did a great job. It’s more than I thought. You did a great job today. I liked my first and second home runs.”
Q. I’m playing a position that’s burdensome.
“Kim Ha-sung is a professional and humble. He is playing well with his teammates and is an excellent player who focuses on his own play. That is why he has produced important results such as home runs.
Q. Dylan Cease started for the first time since the transfer.
We think we’ve recruited a great pitcher with great shoulders. There’s a lot to show in the future. Throwing more than two innings after a long journey can be a burden. He did well for the first time. I’m looking forward to the future.
Q. The fielders showed solid defense yesterday and today.
“Thank you for saying that. Both games showed outstanding defense. He also neatly blocked balls coming to the corner.
Q. How did you see Ko Woo-suk’s loss.
Ko must have wanted to do well. There is also good news that he is continuing to raise his body. I will keep looking at the possibilities. 토토사이트
