Lee Jung-hoo started as the third center fielder in a home game against the San Diego Padres at Oracle Park on the 6th (Korea time), and played one hit, two walks, and one point in four at-bats. San Francisco won the game 3-2.
Lee Jung-hoo, who had a lucky two-base hit the previous day to announce the recovery of his hitting sense, recovered his prowess as a 'double machine' by hitting a powerful double. In addition, he calmly showed his pioneering eye against opposing pitchers who tried to avoid head-to-head games, earning two walks for the fifth time this season.
Lee Jung-hoo raised his batting average from 0.274 to 0.276 (66 hits in 239 at-bats) and his OPS from 0.754 to 0.765. 6 home runs with 32 RBIs, 34 runs, 17 walks, and 6 steals. He is 16th in hits and tied for 6th in doubles (17) in the NL.

Lee Jung-hoo pulled a slider in the middle of 90 miles on the second pitch against San Diego right-hander Dylan Shees and hit a deep line drive toward the right-center field. The ball, which flew 28 degrees and 101.2 miles, fell in front of a fence with the deepest right-center '415 feet' in Oracle Park and went over to the stands.
Lee Jung-hoo was already heading to third base after turning second base, and first baseman Eliot Ramos homered. Lee Jung-hoo should be given RBI and Ramos scoring.
However, Ramos had to stop at third base and Lee Jung-hoo at second base because it was a ground-rule double.
A local NBC Sports broadcaster said "If it was Lee Jung-hoo, it would have at least been a triple and recorded an RBI." It was a perfect response. I think 400 feet is enough."400 feet is like a home run. The corner triple alley is in the way. Okay, if it's not, it should be a triple, at least a triple (staying on a double). But it's a good situation", he said with regret.
Statcast measured the distance of the ball at 404 feet (123 meters) and estimated that 29 out of 30 stadiums had home runs. In other words, it did not fall because it was only Oracle Park.
In any case, San Francisco had a chance to get the first run with one out and runners on the second and third bases with Lee Jung-hoo's double. However, No. 4 Matt Chapman struck out rookie and No. 5 Willy Adames struck out swinging, respectively, failing to pick a point and missing a golden chance.

And Smith hit a double that went over the right-center fence one-bound, bringing in Lee Jung-hoo and Chapman to turn the tide 3-2. It was a ground rule double similar to Lee Jung-hoo in the first inning, but all of them were automatically allowed to score because the runner was on the second and third bases.
Lee Jung-hoo also hit a sharp ball in his third at-bat in the fifth inning with a 3-2 lead. He pulled a fastball in the middle of Siz's 97.9-mile first pitch after one, but flew 19 degrees, 90.9 miles, and was caught by right fielder Fernando Tatis Jr.
A walk was also made in the fourth at-bat in the seventh inning when the lead continued by one point. Lee Jung-hoo, who came to the batter's box after two outs, picked out right-hander David Morgan's high fastball 98.1 miles outside the sixth pitch from the full count. Morgan threw all six balls to the outside course, perhaps conscious of Lee Jung-hoo's batting sense. However, Chapman struck out, and Lee Jung-hoo failed to advance to second base and the inning ended.

San Francisco faced another crisis with one out and runners on first and second base in the ninth inning when Camilo Doval took the mound and gave up two hits, but managed to secure a one-run victory by striking out Jose Iglesias on a groundout to shortstop and Jake Cronenworth on a swing and miss.
San Francisco, which finished its four consecutive home games against San Diego with two wins and two losses, marked 35 wins and 28 losses and maintained its third place in the NL West. It is three games behind the first-place LA Dodgers and one game behind the second-place San Diego Padres.
