The LA Dodgers, led by the outstanding performance of Teoscar Hernandez who alone accounted for 6 RBIs, decisively defeated the Milwaukee Brewers.

On the 24th (Korea time), the Dodgers secured an 11-3 victory in an away game against Milwaukee at American Family Field in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, during the 2026 Major League Baseball (MLB) season, after racking up 10 hits in total.

With this win, the Dodgers, who had lost 1-5 to Milwaukee the previous day (23rd), achieved revenge in just one day, improving their season record to 32 wins and 20 losses. The Dodgers firmly maintained their sole first-place position in the National League (NL) West Division. Meanwhile, Milwaukee, the leader of the NL Central Division, ended their winning streak at '4' and suffered their 19th loss of the season (30 wins).

The Dodgers constructed their starting lineup in the following order: Shohei Ohtani (designated hitter), Mookie Betts (shortstop), Freddie Freeman (first baseman), Andy Paredes (center fielder), Will Smith (catcher), Kyle Tucker (right fielder), Teoscar Hernandez (left fielder), Miguel Rojas (second baseman), and Santiago Espinal (third baseman). The starting pitcher was Rocky Sasaki.

In response, the Brewers set their starting lineup as follows: Jackson Chourio (center fielder), Bryce Turlington (second baseman), Andrew Vaughn (first baseman), Christian Yelich (designated hitter), Gary Sanchez (catcher), Jake Bauers (left fielder), Sal Frelick (right fielder), Jose Ortiz (shortstop), and David Hamilton (third baseman). The starting pitcher was left-handed Robert Gasser.

Kim Hye-seong was absent. There was a reason. With Milwaukee deploying a left-handed pitcher as the starter, he was excluded from the starting lineup in accordance with the platoon system. Even in the later innings when the score gap widened significantly, he did not appear as a pinch hitter or pinch runner.

Kim Hye-seong has recorded the following statistics in 39 games this season: a batting average of 0.264 (28 hits in 106 at-bats), 1 home run, 3 doubles, 1 triple, 10 RBIs, 13 runs scored, 11 walks, 27 strikeouts, 5 stolen bases (1 failed), an on-base percentage of 0.331, a slugging percentage of 0.340, and an OPS (on-base plus slugging) of 0.671.

The undisputed hero of the day's victory was Teoscar Hernandez. Hernandez went 3-for-4 with 1 walk, 6 RBIs, and 2 runs scored, including a home run, and played with great energy.

The Dodgers, trailing 0-3, managed to score one run in the bottom of the 4th inning with consecutive doubles by Freeman and Paredes. Following this, with two outs and runners on first and second, Teoscar Hernandez hit a three-run home run to left field.

Hernandez's performance continued. In the bottom of the 8th inning, with the Dodgers leading 5-3, two outs, and runners on first and third, Hernandez hit a sacrifice fly to right field, scoring a valuable additional run. This was not the end. In the bottom of the 9th inning, with two outs and runners on second and third, he hit a two-run double to center-right field, sealing off any hopes of a comeback by the opponent. Ultimately, the Dodgers added a sacrifice fly to right field by Ohtani and secured an 11-3 victory.

Leadoff man Shohei Ohtani contributed to the team's victory with 2 hits in 5 at-bats and 1 RBI. Freeman recorded 1 hit and drew 4 walks, achieving 5 times on base. The Dodgers' Japanese monster pitcher, Rocky Sasaki, recorded 5 innings, 4 hits allowed, 2 walks, 4 strikeouts, and 3 earned runs (2 earned runs), achieving his 3rd win of the season (3 losses). Meanwhile, Kim Hye-seong was excluded from the starting lineup and did not play at all.
