Juan Soto, who is eating together with Kim Ha-seong of the Major League Baseball (MLB) San Diego Padres, was named as the National League (NL) ‘Player of the Week’.
The MLB Secretariat announced the NL and American League (AL)메이저사이트 Players of the Week on the 19th (Korean time). Soto turned the bat more fiercely than anyone else last week.
In the six games the team played, he had a batting average of .458 (11 hits in 26 at-bats), 4 home runs, 13 RBIs, and an OPS (on-base percentage + slugging percentage) of 1.500. Although the chances of advancing to the postseason in San Diego are slim, the team went well with 5 wins and 1 loss in 6 games, led by Soto’s bat.
Soto is likely to break the record for the most home runs in a single season. As of the 18th, he had played in 150 games this season and hit 32 home runs.
Soto’s most home runs in a season is 34 home runs in 2019 while he was a member of the Washington Nationals.
In the AL, Rafael Devers, who plays for the Boston Red Sox, was selected as Player of the Week.
Devers appeared in 7 games last week and hit .400 (8 hits in 20 at-bats) with 4 home runs and 5 RBIs. He recorded an OPS of 1.586.
