Lee Jung-hoo played as a leadoff center fielder in the last of three consecutive away games against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field on the 13th (Korea time) and marked one hit, one walk, and one score from four times at bat.
However, San Francisco lost 7-8 in the bottom of the ninth inning when Randy Rodriguez, who came out to save, allowed three runs. San Francisco, which stopped its seven-game winning streak, failed to catch up with the Los Angeles Dodgers (41-28), the leading team in the NL West with 40 wins and 29 losses. If he had kept his lead, he would have tied for first place with the Dodgers.
Now, San Francisco will move to LA and play its first rival match this season against the Dodgers in the 14th and 16th. As Lee Jung-hoo and Dodgers' Kim Hye-sung will face off as big leaguers for the first time, domestic fans' interest is also increasing.
Lee Jung-hoo, who has been the third hitter this season, took the leadoff for the first time in the three consecutive games and recorded three hits, three walks and six points in 12 at-bats. In particular, hits and runs in six consecutive starts are notable since the game against the San Diego Padres on the 5th. He has a batting average of 0.333 (7 hits in 21 at-bats), nine points, and an OPS of 1.150 in the last seven games.
His performance for the season was 0.275 (70 hits in 255 at-bats), six home runs, 32 RBIs, 41 points, 22 walks, 6 steals, a on-base percentage of 0.333, a slugging percentage of 0.443, and an OPS of 0.776.

San Francisco combined leader Mike Yastremski's heavy hit, Dominic Smith's infield hit, Casey Schmidt's fly ball to right field, and the opponent's wild pitch to provide chances for the second and third bases with one out. Tyler Fitzgerald then hit a sacrifice fly to score the first run, and Logan Porter's timely hit took a 2-0 lead.
Lee Jung-hoo, who continued to bat with one out and second base, hit a heavy hit to link the chance to the first and third bases with two outs. Lee Jung-hoo hit Colorado right-hander Antonio Senzatela's 88.5-mile changeup on the second pitch for a heavy hit. With a launch angle of 33 degrees, a batting speed of 73.1 miles and a distance of 264 feet, center fielder Brenton Doyle flew forward and extended his glove, but he could not reach it.
Willy Adames then drew a walk and loaded the bases, and Elliott Ramos' heavy hit made Potter and Lee Jung-hoo homered to widen the gap to 4-0.
But San Francisco lost in the bottom of the ninth inning with a 7-5 lead. Rodriguez allowed a big hit to left-center to leadoff hitter Jordan Beck. Center fielder Lee Jung-hoo was able to catch one out count as he chased the ball and hit the fence slightly.
After the catch, Lee Jung-hoo showed off his fighting spirit by hitting his chest with his left hand, and Rodriguez applauded and breathed relief. Statcast viewed the hit's probability as 0.380, and estimated that home runs would have been made in 29 of the 30 stadiums. It was a situation where Rodriguez was relieved.

To make matters worse, third baseman Casey Schmidt, who caught Doyle's ground ball the next batter, made an error, and Hilliard homered and all the runners lived. Matt Chapman, San Francisco's main third baseman, is on the injured list.
Rodriguez then struck out pinch-hitter Hunter Goodman to seal the victory, but when Orlando Arcia hit a left-handed hit after hitting a 98.1-mile fastball with an outside strike, the game ended as it was.
Colorado, which lost the first and second games of the three consecutive games with a painful upset, succeeded in avenging it in the same way. Colorado, which has lost five consecutive games, is still having the worst performance in history with 13 wins and 55 losses (0.191 winning rate), but it enjoyed the joy of a great upset victory as if it had won.
