The San Francisco Giants increased their batting performance with Lee Jung-hoo's first multi-hit in the second half. However, the unfortunate base learning was unfortunate.

Lee Jung-hoo started as a leadoff center fielder in an away game against the Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Center in Toronto, Canada on the 21st (Korea time) and scored two hits, one RBI and one run in five at-bats.

It is the first time in 33 days that he has been the first batter since the game against the Cleveland Guardians on June 18. San Francisco took the lead in offense to break the chain of its last four consecutive losses, including two consecutive losses in the second half.




Lee Jung-hoo did his part to some extent, but San Francisco lost many chances to make 12 hits and two walks as No. 4 Willy Adames and No. 5 Mike Yastremski remained silent, and fell to his knees 6-8. In fact, Lee Jung-hoo also died sideways after hitting a timely hit, leaving a regret.

San Francisco, which lost all three of its opening games in the second half against Toronto and has been mired in five consecutive losses, maintained its third place in the NL West with 52 wins and 48 losses. He is six games behind the world's leading Los Angeles Dodgers and 2.5 games behind the second-ranked San Diego Padres. However, the fourth-place Arizona Diamondbacks won four consecutive games, closely trailing by two games.

San Francisco starter Robbie Ray lost the game by allowing five hits and five walks in four ⅓ innings. 9-4 with a 2.92 ERA in the season.




Toronto starter Jose Berrios also struggled with eight hits and four runs in five ⅔ innings, but with the help of the team's batting lineup, he was able to mark 6-4 losses and a 3.87 ERA for the season.

Lee Jung-hoo hit a lucky double in his first at-bat in the top of the first inning and homered. In one ball, he hit a fastball in the middle of Berrios' second pitch of 92.4 miles and floated it high to the left, and left fielder Davis Schneider, who came forward, fell in front and became a double. It was a normal fly, but I missed it because I couldn't get a view in the sun. In fact, it was a mistake or a record-breaking 20th double of the season.

Local broadcasters said "It was an easy fly, but he couldn't see the ball and made it a double," he said.




Lee Jung-hoo then turned third base and ran home when Elliott Ramos hit left-center and scored the first run.

Lee Jung-hoo, who struck out swinging in the third inning with no outs and runners on the first base, hit a ground ball to the first base in the fifth inning with one out and runners on the first and second bases, leaving the frontrunner out. Andrew Kezner, who was running to second base, was forced out of second base after pulling Berrios' change-up falling outside the first pitch was caught by first baseman Vladimir Guerrero. San Francisco failed to score points as Ramos struck out with two outs and runners on first and third.

San Francisco tied up five hits and one walk in the top of the sixth inning, trailing 2-7, and scored four points, closely following Lee Jung-hoo's timely hit and disappointing base running.

San Francisco, which followed 4-7 with Matt Chapman's two-run homer to right-center with two outs and a runner on the first base, added one run with Dominic Smith's double and Brett Weasley's timely hit, and Kezner walked to create a scoring opportunity with two outs and runners on the first and second bases.

Lee Jung-hoo then hit a 79.4-mile sweeper that fell outside the third pitch of the opponent's left-hander Justin Brul on the two-strike, sending a hit in front of center field to bring second baseman Weisley home. However, Lee Jung-hoo, who was greedy when opposing third baseman Ernie Clement threw the ball to second base during the relay, was tagged out. At first, it was safe, but the decision was reversed after the challenge.

Lee Jung-hoo grounded out to second base in his last at-bat in the ninth inning, trailing 6-8.

Lee Jung-hoo, who scored multiple hits in five games after the LA Dodgers match (3 hits in 4 at-bats) on the 12th, marked a batting average of 0.249 (89 hits in 357 at-bats) and an OPS of 0.716 with six home runs, 41 RBIs and 50 runs. He hit multiple hits for the fourth time in July, posting a monthly batting average of 0.306 (15 hits in 49 times at bat).
