San Diego Padres Kim Ha-seong (26) failed to add a hit in the suspended game, which resumed after 60 days.

San Diego finished the ‘2021 Major League’ Atlanta Braves and Suspended Game at Petco Park in San Diego, California on the 25th (Korean time) with 1 hit and 2 RBIs in 3 at-bats.

This match was the second game of the double header held at home in Atlanta on July 22, and was declared suspend due to bad weather.

At that time, Kim Ha-seong, who started as third baseman in the 7th batter, hit a double in the first at-bat of 2 outs 1 and 2 in the first inning leading 2-0, and summoned both runners. In the second at-bat in the third inning, he recorded a floating ball from left field.

However, he did not add a hit in the restarted game. Kim Ha-seong stayed at third baseman grounding in the third at-bat he faced at first base in the 6th inning.

In the two-game situation in the 7th inning, leading batter Tommy Pam did not get an additional chance as he only grounded second base.

San Diego took a solo shot with Fernando Tatis Jr. and Adam Duvall competing for the National League home run title in the bottom of the sixth inning, leading 5-4.

However, Tatis Jr., who exploded in the 7th inning, took the victory thanks to a solo home run in the final. Tatis Jr., who drew the 41st arch, took the lead in the division, beating Duvall by three points.
