San Francisco Giants Lee Jung-hoo missed a normal fly ball. Local broadcasters were also surprised by the mistake.

Lee Jung-hoo started as the first hitter and center fielder in the 2025 Major League Baseball Atlanta Braves game at Truist Park in Atlanta, USA on the 22nd (Korea time).

Lee Jung-hoo made a mistake in the bottom of the sixth inning with two outs and runners on second base, trailing 3-8.




Atlanta's Drake Baldwin hit high in left-center. Center fielder Lee Jung-hoo and left fielder Elliott Ramos approached. They both seemed to have a falling ball spot.

However, both Lee Jung-hoo and Ramos were passive. The ball fell between the two. Lee Jung-hoo quickly fell and tried to catch it, but it was too late.

The official record was a double, but it was no less than an error. San Francisco's loss grew as the runner on second base scored.




The commentators of the San Francisco broadcaster NBCBA, which was broadcasting the game, could not hide their bitterness.

As soon as Lee Jung-hoo missed the ball, he shouted "NO!" and "No one caught him. Acuña scores. Oh, my gosh. What's going on here. Would Ramos have thought he would catch it?" he lamented.

Then "This is a ball from the center fielder. It has to be handled entirely by the center fielder. This is how Lee Jung-hoo looks at Ramos. There was no communication. It's unacceptable" criticized.

Atlanta's broadcaster FanDuel Sports Network also diagnosed Lee Jung-hoo as responsible. "Lee Jung-hoo failed to do what he had to do. You have to catch all the balls you can catch", he pointed out.

Meanwhile, Lee Jung-hoo had one hit in five at-bats. The team lost five to nine.

Lee Jung-hoo has a batting average of 0.249 / on-base percentage of 0.313 / slugging percentage of 0.398 and an on-base percentage of 0.711 in 96 games this year. He stole six home runs, stole six bases, hit 20 doubles and eight triples. Lee Jung-hoo has been in a batting slump since June, but his batting average in the last seven games has rebounded to 0.296.
