Lee Jung-hoo started as the third center fielder in the final game of the four consecutive away games against the Milwaukee Brewers at Oracle Park on the 25th (Korea time) and hit a double to bring in a runner.
In the bottom of the first inning, trailing 0-1, Mike Yastremski advanced to second base with a heavy hit and a balk by opposing starter Tomias Myers. Willy Adames then hit a grounder to the third base, one out and third base.
Lee Jung-hoo, who entered the batter's box for the first time, pulled Myers' 93.6-mile fastball and hit a double to the right to bring Yastremski home.
The ball, which flew like a clothesline at a launch angle of 19 degrees and a batting speed of 99.6 miles, fell on the line in front of the foul pole and hit the fence. With his 11th double of the season, Lee moved back to tied with New York Mets Pete Alonso for first place overall in this category.
However, Lee Jung-hoo failed to reach home with Matt Chapman's first baseman fly and Elliott Ramos striking out.
In the second at-bat in the third inning, he walked to base and then homered.
Leading Yastremski hits a superior solo home run to tie the game 2-2. After Adames walked on base, Lee Jung-hoo also got a straight walk from Myers. Myers didn't seem to have any intention of throwing the ball in the strike zone. The corner work was not done properly. However, San Francisco failed to score additional points after all three subsequent hitters stepped down as miscues even though it had a chance to hit the first and second bases with no outs.
In the end, first baseman Lamont Wade Jr.'s decisive error in the top of the fourth inning gave up three points, losing the lead again 2-5.
Lee Jung-hoo showed his strength to drive three hits against Milwaukee the previous day, properly raising the sense of hitting that almost fell into a downward trend. On this day, he seems to continue to hit a hit from his first at-bat.
