Lee Jung-hoo started as the third center fielder in Game 2 of the four consecutive home games against the Milwaukee Brewers at Oracle Park on the 23rd (Korea time) and recorded no hits, one walk, and one point in four at-bats. San Francisco lost 3-11, due to the collapse of the mound.
With this, Lee Jung-hoo's batting average fell from 0.329 to 0.315 (28 hits in 89 at-bats), and his OPS fell from 0.983 to 0.947. 3 home runs, 15 RBIs, 20 runs, 9 walks.
Milwaukee's starter is left-hander Jose Kintana. Lee Jung-hoo faced Kintana for the first time on April 23 last year at Oracle Park and had one hit in three at-bats. However, he had no hits in three times at bat on the day.
In his first at-bat in the bottom of the first inning, he stepped down with an infield fly. On ball count 1B2S, Kintana hit a 77.3-mile sloop on the outside low course of the fifth pitch, but it came up on a fly to shortstop.
In his second at-bat, trailing 1-3, he struck out with two outs and a chance to first and third base, turning his bat on Kintana's outer slab.
In the sixth inning, trailing 1-11, the front runner was out by hitting a ground ball to the second base. Lee Jung-hoo, who then went to third base with Matt Chapman's right double, failed to score after Luis Matos hit a ground ball to shortstop following a walk by Wilmer Flores.
In the eighth inning, trailing 2-11, he was the leadoff hitter and walked 89 miles outside the eighth pitch on a full count against left-hander Brian Hudson.
Lee Jung-hoo, who advanced to second base with Christian Kos' dune, then homered and scored on Flores' double on the right-field line. 20th point of the season.
Lee Jung-hoo also entered the batter's box in the ninth inning. When his team was losing 3-1 with runners on first and second bases with two outs in the ninth inning, Lee hit the first pitch against right-hander Joel Feiamps, but the game ended with a fly ball to the right field.

Milwaukee created a chance on the first and third bases with no outs with a leadoff double by Caleb Durbin and Bryce Turang's left-handed hit, and Durbin homered and scored the first run when Jackson Churio grounded out to second base. Christian Yelich hit a double to the left to connect the chance to the second and third bases, and William Contreras' left-handed hit burst to widen the gap to 3-0.
Milwaukee destroyed the San Francisco mound in the top of the sixth inning and scored eight points to determine the outcome. Taking advantage of Hicks' wild pitch and catcher Patrick Bailey's mistake on the first and second bases with no outs made by lead Jake Bowers' infield hit and Vinny Capra's error on base, they added one point to widen the gap to 4-1. Garrett Mitchell then got a walk and connected the chance to the first and second bases with no outs, and while San Francisco replaced starter Hicks with Lou Trivino, Twang hit a timely hit, Yelich hit a grand slam and Bowers hit a series of two-run homers to run 11-1.
San Francisco starter Hicks lost the game by allowing six runs, revealing extreme control anxiety that gave up eight hits and three walks in five innings. 1 win and 3 losses with a 6.59 ERA in the season.
On the other hand, Milwaukee starter Kintana marked his third win of the season by blocking six innings with a quality start of six hits and one run. He became a winning pitcher in all three games he took the mound this season.
San Francisco, which marked 15 wins and 9 losses, remained in third place in the NL West.
