Lee Jung-hoo started as the fifth center fielder and recorded one hit in five at-bats in the first of three consecutive away games against the Athletics at Sutter Health Park in Sacramento, California on the 6th (Korea time). San Francisco avenged its defeat the previous day with a 7-2 victory.
Lee Jung-hoo, who remained silent with no hits in four at-bats against the Athletics on the 5th after hitting three hits and one hit against the Arizona Diamondbacks on the 3rd and 4th, produced a hit in two games, marking a batting average of 0.243 (79 hits in 325 at-bats) and an OPS of 0.706. However, there was still no hit to hit the center of the bat.
Lee Jung-hoo was very disappointed to miss the bases-loaded chance in his first at-bat. San Francisco had a one-out bases-loaded chance with a walk by leadoff Mike Yastremski, a walk by Elliott Ramos and a walk by Matt Chapman after one out.
However, Lee Jung-hoo put out the bat on opposing right-hander Luis Severino's high fastball of 93.9 miles on the first pitch and hit a ground ball to the third base. In the end, third baseman Yastremski, who was running home, was forced out. It was a 'hasty' hit with a ball that could have been a ball if it had been let go.
However, San Francisco took the lead by scoring two points first with a critical hit by No. 6 Willy Adames.

In one ball, he lightly hit a 93.5-mile fastball that flew into the middle of Severino's second pitch to create a hit that fell in the middle of the right-center field. The angle of launch is 23 degrees, the speed of hitting is 80.8 miles, and the distance is 269 feet.
Lee Jung-hoo advanced to second base while opposing center fielder Denzel Clark caught the ball and threw it to third base. Thanks to this, San Francisco's left-handed hit by the next batter, Adames, followed by Chapman and Lee Jung-hoo, penetrated home to widen the score gap to 4-0. Lee Jung-hoo was in tag-out timing at home, but fortunately, the opposing catcher Shei Langliers missed the ball and was safe.
Lee Jung-hoo, who took his third at-bat with one out and one on the first base in the fifth inning with a 5-1 lead, struck out three pitches against the changed left-hander Sean Newcombe. Lee Jung-hoo, who missed the first 90.1 mile high sinker with a strike, fouled out a 92.4 mile sinker on a similar course on the second pitch. He then watched the ball enter the catcher's mitts even though the third pitch's 93.4 mile four-seam fastball flew slightly toward the body from the middle.
He took the lead in the seventh inning with a 7-2 lead and hit right-hander Justin Sturner's 94.8-mile fastball on the eighth pitch after a close full count, but the missed ball was caught by third baseman Max Muncy as it floated high in the infield. In the ninth inning with a 7-2 lead, the first base with no outs rolled up Alvarado's second pitch, a low 89.1 mile changeup, but a short fly to right field.

San Francisco starter Logan Webb allowed seven hits, two walks and two runs in six ⅔ innings and won, posting an 8-6 record and a 2.62 ERA for the season. San Francisco, which marked 48 wins and 42 losses, reduced its victory over the NL West-leading Los Angeles Dodgers to eight games.
