Lee Jung-hoo hit a double for three consecutive games, continuing his peak hitting sense.
Lee Jung-hoo played as the third center fielder in Game 2 of the three consecutive away games against the Houston Astros at Diekin Park in Houston, Texas, on the 2nd (Korea time) and recorded one hit in four at-bats.
Lee Jung-hoo, who continued his hit streak in four consecutive games since the game against the Cincinnati Reds on the 30th of last month, marked a batting average of 0.278 (5 hits in 18 at-bats), two RBIs, six runs, three walks, three strikeouts, one stolen base, a on-base percentage of 0.381, a slugging percentage of 0.444, and an OPS of 0.825.
In the first at-bat, the well-hit ball was regrettable toward the front of the fielder.
Lee Jung-hoo easily hit a 95.7-mile four-seam fastball that flew into the middle of the eighth pitch after a close game against Houston right-handed starter Hayden Wesneski after two outs in the top of the first inning. The ball flew like a clothesline to the right at a speed of 91.1 miles, but second baseman Brendan Rodgers jumped slightly and caught it.

Lee Jung-hoo then entered the batter's box with a runner on second base. He pulled a 93.7 mile fastball outside Wesneski's first pitch, but was thrown out on a 97.9-mile second-base grounder. In the meantime, Adames advanced to third base. However, Matt Chapman struck out swinging and San Francisco failed to score additional points.
San Francisco went on a 3-0 run in the fourth inning on a solo home run by leader Eliot Ramos. Ramos pulled Wesneski's sweeper and edged it over the left fence at Dykin Park 5.8m high.
Lee Jung-hoo took the lead in the fifth inning with a 3-1 lead and retired with a fly ball to left field. Again, he hit a 91.9-mile fastball that penetrated Wesneski's strike zone outside his first pitch, but left fielder Jose Altuve ran near Pauline and caught it.

The ball, which reached 22 degrees in launch angle and 104.5 miles (168.2 kilometers), fell to 376 feet (114.6 meters) of the deepest left-center outfield at Daikin Park and hit the fence one-bound.
Lee Jung-hoo, who had a left double in the sixth inning against the Cincinnati Reds on the 31st of last month and a right-center double in the ninth inning against Houston the previous day, advanced to third base with Elliott Ramos' grounder to shortstop, but Mike Yastremski struck out swinging and failed to reach home.
San Francisco won 3-1 and marked 4-1 with three consecutive wins thanks to ace Logan Webb's good pitching of five hits, six strikeouts and one run in seven innings.
San Francisco leadoff Lamont Wade Jr. was humiliatingly replaced by a pinch hitter in the seventh inning as he failed to get on base with only three hits and three strikeouts in three at-bats. In five games, he went 18 at-bats and recorded a sacrifice bunt and a sacrifice fly once, but was silent with no hits in 16 at-bats.
