San Francisco Giants Lee Jung-hoo launched a cannon for two consecutive days, but he couldn't be happier.

Lee Jung-hoo started as the third center fielder in the final game of the three consecutive home games against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Oracle Park on the 15th (Korea time) and scored one hit, two RBIs and one run from five times at bat, including a two-run home run.

Lee Jung-hoo shot a two-run shot in the seventh inning, trailing 4-8, to bring the game to a close, but San Francisco ended up kneeling 7-8.




Lee Jung-hoo entered the batter's box for the fourth time in the bottom of the seventh inning with the lead Wilmer Flores hitting right-center and no outs and runners on first base. Against right-hander Ryan Nelson, he pulled an 86.5-mile changeup in the middle of the fourth pitch on the ball count 1B2S and connected it to an arch over the right-center fence. He hit his sixth homer of the season with an angle of launch of 29 degrees, a batting speed of 101.7 miles and a driving distance of 393 feet.

He led the team to a 10-6 victory by hitting a superior three-run home run in the bottom of the eighth inning against Arizona on the previous day, and then fired a signal of pursuit with a two-run shot that day, showing a thrilling cannon taste. Lee Jung-hoo once hit a multi-homer (against the New York Yankees on April 14) since his Major League debut, but this is the first time he has hit a home run in two consecutive games. In addition, he drew an arch for two consecutive days at his home stadium, where home runs are difficult to come out.

San Francisco followed Lee Jung-hoo with a two-run homer in the seventh inning, 6-8, but failed to turn the tide.




Lee Jung-hoo, who was the leadoff hitter in the bottom of the ninth inning, then stepped down with a fly to left field and failed to provide a chance. San Francisco, which had a bases-loaded chance with Matt Chapman's hit, Willy Adames' double and Patrick Bailey's walk after Mike Yastremski struck out, followed by Lamont Wade Jr. with a pushout walk, but the game ended as Christian Koss, the main character of the bases-loaded shot, hit a fly to center field the previous day.

This is the first time that San Francisco lost the game where Lee Jung-hoo hit a home run. Lee Jung-hoo, who made his Major League debut last year, has hit a total of eight home runs in seven games so far. In all six previous games, San Francisco won. This is why Lee Jung-hoo, who hit a home run, couldn't be happy after the game.

For San Francisco, it couldn't be helped. Hitters such as Lee Jung-hoo, Elliott Ramos, Chapman, and Flores did their best on the day. However, starting pitcher Jordan Hicks got seven hits in two innings and allowed five runs to take the lead, and Ryan Budsong, who took the mound, was also sluggish with four hits and three runs in three innings.

As a result, Lee Jung-hoo had a batting average of 0.286 (48 hits in 168 at-bats), six home runs, 29 RBIs, 30 points, 11 walks, 22 strikeouts, 3 steals, 0.330 on-base percentage, 0.482 slugging percentage, and 0.812. Lee Jung-hoo will score 22 home runs, 107 RBIs and 110 points if he maintains his current pace.

San Francisco, which lost its three consecutive home games against Arizona with one win and two losses, marked 25 wins and 19 losses and maintained its third place in the NL West. It was 3.5 games apart from the leading LA Dodgers (28 wins and 15 losses).
