San Francisco Giants' Lee Jung-hoo's batting order is jagged. It feels like I'm on a roller coaster. Still, it has repeatability.
Lee Jung-hoo has been batting in the 1st and 6th batting order since the Tampa Bay Rays match on the 18th (Korea time). Lee Jung-hoo, who hit No. 6 against the Milwaukee Brewers on the 23rd, took the leadoff again in the second game of the three consecutive home games against Milwaukee on the 24th.
Milwaukee's starter was right-hander Freddie Peralta. He is the de facto ace of Milwaukee, with 15-5 losses, 2.78 ERA and 154 strikeouts in 26 games this season. It ranks first in multiple wins in both leagues, sixth in ERA, 10th in strikeouts, ninth in WHIP (1.10), fourth in hit rate (0.199) and 15th in pitching innings (142 ⅔).
Lee Jung-hoo was strong against Peralta with two hits in three at-bats. In the Oracle Park game, which Peralta started on April 24, he recorded a left-center hit in the first inning, a third baseman fly in the fourth inning, and a right-handed hit in the sixth inning, respectively.

After the game against Tampa Bay on the 18th, San Francisco coach Bob Melvin has deployed Lee Jung-hoo as No. 1 if he is right-handed and No. 6 if he is left-handed. The batting order varies depending on the type of starting pitcher. Until this day, 1→6→1→6→1→6→1 in the last seven games.
Then, will Lee Jung-hoo be weak against left-handed pitchers this year. No. He had a batting average of 0.258 (85 hits in 329 times at bat), four homers and an OPS of 0.748 against right-handed pitchers. He has a batting average of 0.263 (35 hits in 133 at-bats) with three home runs and an OPS of 0.798. It doesn't make much difference.
Lee Jung-hoo is not the only one. Willy Adames has mainly played three times, but has been going back and forth between three and four times since the game against Tampa Bay on the 18th. I play number three on this day.
During the same period, Rafael Devers was used in the order of 3→2→3→2→3→2, while Elliott Ramos was in the order of 2→1→2→1→2→2. Devers was excluded from the starting lineup against Peralta on the day, while Ramos was excluded from the starting lineup.
Matt Chapman, who hit No. 6 against the San Diego Padres on the 13th, injured his right hand and spent 10 days on the IL, returned to the mound as the sixth batter. Before that, I usually hit four times.
If the opponent is a left-hander, Devers, a left-handed hitter, plays three times and Ramos, a right-handed hitter, plays a leadoff. I don't know what principle this is again.
On this day, San Francisco's batting order was in the order of Lee Jung-hoo, Devers, Adames, Smith, Schmidt, Chapman, Matos, Bailey, and Gilbert.
