San Francisco Giants' Lee Jung-hoo went hitless for two consecutive days, collapsing another 280 batting average.
Lee Jung-hoo started as the fourth center fielder in the final game of the three away games against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park on the 29th (Korea time) and recorded no hits and one walk in four at-bats. San Francisco took a three-game sweep with a 3-4 knee.
It is the fourth time Lee Jung-hoo has been the fourth batter this season after the Arizona Diamondbacks on the 13th-14th and the Detroit game the day before. Manager Bob Melvin's appointment of Lee Jung-hoo, who used to play built-in No. 3, to No. 4 is probably an order to make a hit in the chance with contact heating. However, Lee Jung-hoo failed to meet expectations for two consecutive games following three hits and one out the previous day.
Lee Jung-hoo, who had seven hits in a row and remained silent for two consecutive games, saw his batting average fall from 0.281 to 0.276 (59 hits in 214 times at bat). He had six home runs, 31 RBIs, 32 runs, 15 walks, and 3 steals, while his on-base percentage fell to 0.326, his slugging percentage to 0.444, and his OPS to 0.770.
He played in 25 games in May and had no hits in nine games, or 36 percent. The batting average, which was once 'Top 10', fell to 42nd place out of 167 players who filled the regular at-bats.

In the third inning with a 1-0 lead, he hit an infield grounder without a runner after two outs. At 2B2S, Jove's sixth pitch pulled a 95.1 mile fastball into the body, but it was missed and spilled to second base. The batting speed was 67.1 miles.
After two outs in the fifth inning with a 3-0 lead, the third at-bat caught a relatively good hit. The pull of a 78-mile curve that fell towards Jove's first pitch body flew to a 96.2-mile hard hit and was caught by right fielder Justin-Henry Mulroy. After the game was turned over 3-4, he drew a walk after two outs in the seventh inning. He picked left-hander Tyler Holton's 5th pitch, 91.7 miles into the body, for a ball. However, Matt Chapman stepped down with a fly to left field and the inning ended.
Lee Jung-hoo tried to get a hit in his last at-bat after two outs in the ninth inning, when he was losing 3-4, but was grounded out to the second base. He hit the first pitch again this time. The pull of right-hander Tommy Kahnley's 87.9-mile outside changeup spilled straight into the second baseman's face.

Roofe then allowed left-handed batter Colt Keith to hit a double that flowed to the right wing line on first base, and two players homered. Randy Rodriguez, who took the mound following Roofe, struck out the next two batters in a row, but Mulroy hit a left-handed hit and allowed a 3-4 turnaround.
San Francisco's batters failed to show their concentration again, as they had 10 hits and four walks, and only one hit in nine at-bats from the scoring position. There was no scoring chance in front of the fourth batter Lee Jung-hoo.
San Francisco, which has lost three consecutive games, maintained its third place in the NL West with 31 wins and 25 losses. The Los Angeles Dodgers, the top-ranked team in the district, also lost to the Cleveland Guardians on the same day, maintaining three games of riding against San Francisco.
