'Have you ever seen such a great person?'

Kim Hye-sung, who is active with the Los Angeles Dodgers, posted a message on his social media congratulating his teammate Miguel Rojas on his home run.

On the 21st (Korean time), Rojas hit a two-run homer over the left field in the sixth inning with two outs and a runner on first base during the home game against the Washington Nationals at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, California. It was his third home run of the season.

The Dodgers secured a 6-5 victory, fending off a strong challenge from Washington. Starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw achieved his third win of the season with 5 innings pitched, allowing 5 hits (2 home runs), 2 walks, 4 strikeouts, and 2 runs. Rojas led the team in performance with 2 hits in 3 at-bats, including a home run, 2 RBIs, and 2 runs scored.

That day, with Washington starting left-hander Mackenzie Gore, Kim Hye-sung was excluded from the starting lineup and came in as a defensive replacement for Michael Conforto in the top of the ninth.

On the 21st, Kim Hye-sung posted a photo on his social media of Rojas high-fiving Shohei Ohtani after hitting a home run. He congratulated Rojas with a message that read 'Nice Home Run,' accompanied by smile and thumbs-up emojis.

Kim Hye-sung and Rojas share a special friendship beyond competition. Rojas even gifted Kim Hye-sung a luxury backpack when he debuted in the big leagues last month. At that time, Kim Hye-sung posted a photo of the luxury backpack he received from Rojas on his social media with the caption 'Thank you so much!!'.

Meanwhile, Kim Hye-sung, who challenged the U.S. stage by signing a 3+2 year guaranteed contract worth $12.5 million with the Dodgers last January, had somewhat disappointing results during spring training. He appeared in 15 games, recording 6 hits in 29 at-bats, with a batting average of .207, 1 home run, 3 RBIs, and 6 runs scored. Kim Hye-sung did not participate in the Tokyo series and started the season with the Triple-A Oklahoma City Dodgers.

Since his promotion to the big leagues in May, Kim Hye-sung has played in 33 games, achieved 28 hits in 74 at-bats, with a batting average of .378, 2 home runs, 12 RBIs, 14 runs scored, 6 stolen bases, and an OPS of 0.959.
