Although he was treated like an underdog, he was an assistant to Kim Ha-sung's adaptation to the Major League. Eric Hosmer announced his retirement from active service.

Hosmer announced on Tuesday (KST) that he will retire from his 13-year career as a major leaguer. Hosmer will start his second life by launching Moonball Media, a baseball podcast. Hosmer announced his retirement through the first content of the future Digin deep podcast channel and announced his transformation into a YouTuber.

Hosmer made his Major League debut in 2011 as the top prospect selected by the Kansas City Royals with the third overall pick in the first round of the 2008 MLB Draft. He hit .277, 6, and 1,753 in 1,689 games in 13 seasons. He left career records with 198 home runs, 893 RBIs, and .762 OPS. He won four Career Gold Glove Awards, one Silver Slugger Award, and the 2016 All-Star MVP. He also has a World Series Championship ring. He was one of the key players in Kansas City's 2015 World Series win.

However, Hosmer's career has gone downhill. He had the best performance of his career, batting .300, .802 with 192 hits, 25 homers, 94 RBIs, and an .802 OPS in 162 games in 2017. It was the 'preliminary free agent' season. Thanks to the perfect free agent season, Hosmer signed a huge eight-year, $144 million (W192 billion) contract with the San Diego Padres in February 2018.

However, Hosmer's big deal with San Diego was disastrous. His career began to wane like a lie. Eventually, he played in 596 games for San Diego through the first half of 2022 with a batting average of 265 with 68 homers and 309 RBIs, and achieved an OPS of 7377. It was disappointing because of the performance that didn't suit big players. It was also called "Muk-Too."

Eventually, Hosmer, who was treated as an underdog, was traded to the Boston Red Sox ahead of the 2022 season trade deadline. Hosmer's remaining salary was $46,032,867 at the time, and San Diego left with $43,5666,713 of the remaining salary.

Since then, Hosmer has been released by Boston and signed with the Chicago Cubs last year, but he hit 234 with 22 hits in 94 at-bats, two homers and 14 RBIs in 31 games in May. Eventually, he failed to find the team on his own and announced his retirement on the same day.

Hosmer left only bad memories for San Diego fans, but he was an indispensable teammate of Kim Ha-sung. When Hosmer left San Diego, Kim Ha-sung left a goodbye message on social media saying, "Thank you for always taking care of me."

Even if Kim Ha-sung played a bad pitch, Hosmer was the player who received it without any problems at first base. Hosmer also took care of Kim Ha-sung in an interview ahead of the 2022 season, saying, "We are all confident in Kim Ha-sung's defense and believe he can hit the bat well."
