Now, fans are also waiting for Kim Hye-sung (LA Dodgers). This is because Kim Hye-sung's performance in Triple-A is amazing.
Kim Hye-sung started as the first shortstop in an away showdown with Triple-A Round Rock Express under the Texas Rangers in the 2025 Minor League held at Del Diamond in Round Rock, Texas on the 13th (Korea time) and recorded two hits (2 home runs) three RBIs, two runs and one walk in five at-bats.
Kim Hye-sung recently suffered a severe blow. Therefore, he seemed to be in a call-up mood. A video clip of him sharing a warm hug with his teammates during a Triple-A game was released. The same was true of the head coach.
However, no news of the call-up has been reported. He is back in Triple-A. Now, he is showing off his slugging capability as well as contact.
Kim hit a home run on the previous day (July 12), and made consecutive home runs on the day. The hitting sense is terrifying.
Kim hit a grounder to the second base at the first batter's box in the top of the first inning, and suffered a setback at her second batter's box. With her team leading 2-0 in the top of the second inning, she hit a fastball of 94.1 miles with two outs and a third base, and displayed a powerful two-run shot. She hit a home run in two consecutive games.
The momentum continued in the third at-bat. With no runners on with one out in the top of the fourth inning of his team's 4-0 run, he met J.T. Shagwa, a new pitcher of Round Rock, at the top of the fourth inning. He hit his second pitch to hit the homer over the central fence. He extended at a whopping 106.3 miles (171.1 kilometers) and flew 462 feet (140.8 meters) to produce a mega consecutive homerun over the central fence. His third homer of the season.
A local commentator said, "The ball flew to the middle of the right. Kim Hye-sung hit another home run. This is the third home run of the season and the third home run in the last two days."
Afterwards, he was out with a misfire. He grounded out to first base in his fourth at-bat, and allowed a walk in the sixth inning, but failed to hit a homer due to a failed follow-up. He ended the game with a strikeout in the top of the seventh inning with one out and a runner on the first base.
Kim Hye-sung, who boasted a tremendous batting sense, raised his batting average for the season to 0.293, and OPS marked a whopping 0.962.
The Dodgers suffered a crushing defeat against the Chicago Cubs on the day. It suffered the largest loss in Dodgers history, with infielder Miguel Rojas taking the mound.
Rival Andy Paz hit a home run in two consecutive games against the Washington Nationals on the 9th and 10th, but has been silent again since then, struggling with a batting average of around 10%.
Kim Hye-sung, on the other hand, seems to have fully recovered his hitting sense.
As a result, fans are now bringing up Kim Hye-sung's name. 메이저사이트
Blake Harris, a reporter exclusively for the Los Angeles Dodgers, posted a video of Kim's home run on social media, saying, "Kim Hye-sung hit a 140-meter home run that flew 171 kilometers. It's his second home run tonight."
Then, fans wanted Kim Hye-sung's call-up by posting comments such as "Let's get him promoted to a major soon," "426 feet?!! We have to seriously think about the call-up," "The problem is that Chris Taylor is on the roster, not Kim Hye-sung," and "Kim Hye-sung is ready."
