Is this why he was humiliated by Kim Hye-sung (26, LA Dodgers), the "Hyesung Express" who played for the Los Angeles Dodgers? Chris Taylor, a utility player who moved to the Los Angeles Angels after playing for the Los Angeles Dodgers, is having a hard time getting out of the slump.
Taylor started in left field as the eighth hitter in the 2025 Major League Baseball's home game against the New York Yankees at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, California on the 28th (Korea Standard Time).
Taylor, who played his first game as an Angels uniform against the Yankees on the previous day (27th), had no hits in three times at bat, but was also sluggish in the game on the same day. When he was released by the Dodgers, his batting average for this season was .200, but has now dropped to .171.
Taylor was struck out by a swing and miss against Yankees starting pitcher Carlos Rodon at the bottom of the second inning with two outs and a runner on the second base, and as a leadoff hitter at the bottom of the fifth inning, he ended up with a flyout to the shortstop. The same was true with the chance at the bottom of the seventh inning with two outs and a runner on the second base. The result was a strikeout. When Rodon threw a 95.8-mph four-seam fastball under the strike zone, Taylor couldn't move and had to leave the batter's box.
In the bottom of the ninth inning, the Angels trailed by scoring two runs thanks to Yoan Moncada's solo home run to the center of the wall, and trailed the game 2-3. It was Taylor's turn to take the batter's box, but the Angels sent Logan Ohhoff to the plate as a pinch hitter. In a tense situation, the Angels didn't trust Taylor and ran a substitute operation. In the end, the Angels lost 2-3 in the game.
Taylor, who made his major league debut with the Seattle Mariners in 2014, succeeded in turning his life around with a batting average of .288 with 21 home runs, 72 RBIs and 17 steals for the Dodgers in 2017.
Taylor has been on a roll. Taylor, who played the role of licorice for Dodgers fielders by recording 17 homers in 2018, 12 homers in 2019, eight homers in 2020, 20 homers in 2021, 10 homers in 2022, and 15 homers in 2023, showed a terrible slump last year, hitting .202 with four homers, 23 RBIs and five steals, and failed to show any improvement this year, and was finally notified of his release by the Dodgers. 스포츠토토
As a new utility player resource called Kim Hye-sung joined the Dodgers, Taylor's utility value was bound to decline further. Kim Hye-sung has appeared in 19 games since joining the big league and has been performing better than expected with a batting average of .366 15 hits, one home run, five RBIs and four steals.
Taylor was once a player who was successful enough to sign a four-year, 60 million-dollar long-term contract with the Dodgers. However, Taylor, who broke up with the Dodgers due to his rapid decline in skills, is making a fresh start with the Angels, but is still showing a creaky move.
