Bae Ji-hwan, who belongs to the Indianapolis Indians, a triple-A team under Pittsburgh, started the game against the Iowa Cubs (under the Chicago Cubs) at Victory Field in Indianapolis, Indiana on the 22nd (Korea Standard Time) and had no hits in three at-bats.
Bae Ji-hwan, who had a late start this season due to a left hip injury, was out of power after suffering a sprained wrist two weeks after being promoted to the Major League on the 5th.
Having been focusing on rehabilitation after his injury, he recently began training and played his first real game since his injury.
The opposing starter was Dan Staley, who played for the Lotte Giants in the KBO League for four seasons from 2020.
However, the result was not good. Bae grounded out to shortstop in his first at-bat in the bottom of the first inning, but he struck out in the bottom of the third inning and grounded out to the first base in the bottom of the fifth inning.
As it was a rehabilitation game, it was more meaningful to check the sense of practice through offense and defense than the result.
Bae Ji-hwan was replaced by pinch hitter Matt Prezier in the bottom of the seventh inning after playing defense in the top of the seventh inning and missed the game.
Bae Ji-hwan's Triple-A performance this season is 0.365 with four home runs, 16 RBIs and seven steals.
Meanwhile, Indianapolis won 5-2 by scoring five runs in the bottom of the seventh inning when it was trailing 0-2. 토토사이트 추천
