Los Angeles Dodgers veteran shortstop Miguel Rojas (36) is the hottest hitter in the U.S. Major League Baseball. Perhaps, he is drawing more attention than other players who are engaged in the MVP race, including Aaron Judge and Juan Soto of the New York Yankees, and his teammate Shohei Ohtani. That is how he is writing unique and special records.

The Dodgers won all 23 games in which Rojas had at least one hit this season. Rojas doesn’t just win by hitting without nutrition. Rojas hit a double as a leadoff hitter in the top of the seventh inning against the Chicago White Sox 0-0 on the 25th (Korea time), and one out later, he scored thanks to Enrique Hernandez’s timely hit, setting the stage for a 3-0 victory. In the 23rd game in which Rojas had a hit this season, the Dodgers secured their 23rd victory. 안전 슬롯사이트

“Number doesn’t lie. If Rojas hits, we win,” Hernandez said in an interview with a local U.S. reporter.

Even when the score gap widened, a miracle begins when Rojas hits. Rojas was going 0-for-3 while his team was dragged 4-9 against the Colorado Rockies on the 19th. Then, in the top of the ninth inning, Rojas fired a signal of a come-from-behind victory with a right-field hit in the final at-bat with no outs. Jason Heyward’s grand slam with the bases loaded with one out led to 8-9, and Teoscar Hernandez hit a come-from-behind three-run home run to win 11-9, with two outs and runners on the first and second bases. It is no exaggeration to say that Rojas’ miracle was the best proven game.

The Major League website MLB.com said, “Lohas realized a few weeks ago that he was achieving such an unusual consecutive record. It was around the time the Dodgers played a series against the Yankees in New York. Rojas checked all the messages sent by fans on social media and acknowledged that it was a difficult record to ignore.”

Rojas said, “I think Dodgers fans and people who watch baseball think it’s very cool. It’s a pretty cool streak. I’m not going to deny it. I’m going to keep enjoying it. And then one day it’s going to be broken, but it doesn’t matter if I get a hit or not. The most important thing is the team wins.”

The Dodgers were deeply troubled when Mookie Betts, the main shortstop and the first hitter, left on the 17th due to a fracture of his left hand. It was a major injury that is expected to take at least six to eight weeks to return. Betts is a batter with an MVP award, so the vacancy is bound to look bigger. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts uses Rojas as his main shortstop, and the defense is stable and above all, if he hits, he will look pretty because he will win the team unconditionally.

Rojas has a batting average of 0.284 (38 hits in 134 times at bat), three homers, 15 RBIs and an OPS of 0.764 in 49 games this season. Compared with his batting average of 0.236 (91 hits in 385 times at bat), five homers, 31 RBIs and an OPS of 0.612 in 124 games last year, his pace is much better.

Rojas’ hit may not have anything to do with the Dodgers’ victory, but Roberts smiled, saying, “I’ll take it. As long as Rojas keeps hitting, he’ll be happy, and we’ll win the game.”
