Kim was the team's back-up shortstop (or jardinero corto) and third baseman, often entering the game in the late innings to replace Dave Hollins at third. Such was the case in NLCS Game 1, when Kim entered the game at third and promptly committed a 9th inning error allowing the Braves to tie the game. In the bottom of the 10th, Kim atoned for the error with the game-winning single, scoring John Kruk from 2nd base.

What ever happened to that Dave Hollins?
He's currently a scout for the Baltimore Orioles, per his Wikipedia entry. I'm surprised he's not working for the Phils in some capacity.
