The Los Angeles Dodgers left infielder Kim Hye-seong off their 26-man roster for the National League Championship Series against the Milwaukee Brewers, opting for an extra pitcher and leaving no South Korean player in this year's major league postseason. Kim, who played just 43 games this season and appeared once as a defensive replacement in the previous round, was part of the Dodgers' back-to-back World Series-winning squad last year; no South Korean has won consecutive titles. The only other South Korean to play in this postseason, Atlanta's Kim Ha-seong, went hitless in four games before the Braves were eliminated.
