Ha-seong Kim, sacrifice fly against Yamamoto
ⓒNewsis Los Angeles Dodgers’ Japanese starting pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto (26) was hit hard in his debut game in the U.S. Major League Baseball (MLB).
Yamamoto started the regular season game of the ‘2024 MLB World Tour Seoul Series’ against the San Diego Padres held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 21st and performed poorly, allowing 4 hits, 2 walks, 2 walks, and 2 strikeouts in 1 inning.
Yamamoto, who conquered Japanese professional baseball and attempted to advance to the big leagues, signed a 12-year contract worth $325 million (about 435.8 billion won) with the Dodgers in December last year.
Yamamoto, who wore a Dodgers uniform amid great expectations, attracted attention as he took over the starting role from the opening series along with Tyler Glasnow.
However, I placed the first button incorrectly. Yamamoto, who played his first MLB regular season game in Seoul, was confused by San Diego’s batting lineup.
Yamamoto gave up a hit to Xander Bogaerts and a pitch to Fernando Tatis Jr., putting him on first and second base with no outs, and then hit Jake Cronenworth with a two-run triple to right field.
He then allowed a walk to Manny Machado, putting him on first and third base with no outs, and contributed a sacrifice fly RBI to Ha-seong Kim.
Yamamoto caught his breath by striking out Jurickson Profar on a missed swing, but received timely hits in succession from Luis Campusano and Tyler Wade.
Afterwards, he struck out Jackson Merrill on a missed swing and ended the long first inning.
On this day, the Dodgers, who set Yamamoto’s pitch limit at 90, made a decision. The bullpen was activated early by bringing in right-handed pitcher Michael Grove starting in the second inning.
Yamamoto, who collapsed, recorded 43 pitches in the first inning alone.
