Lee Jung-hoo played as a leadoff center fielder in Game 2 of the three away games against the Milwaukee Brewers at American Family Field on the 24th (Korea time) and scored a cool hit in his third at-bat.
In his first at-bat in the top of the first inning, Lee Jung-hoo pulled Peralta's fastball 93.5 miles in the middle of his second pitch, but he was thrown out by a ground ball to the second base. It was a hard hit of more than 100 miles with a batting speed of 100.8 miles.
In the third inning, trailing 0-1, he entered as the leadoff hitter and retired with a short fly ball to left field. In the ball count of 2B2S, Peralta's change-up, which fell into the middle of 88 miles on his fifth pitch, seemed to have lost the timing, and the hit missed by the weakly turned bat appeared high in the outfield in left-center. The batting speed is 87.4 miles.
However, Lee Jung-hoo eventually produced a hit against Peralta. In the fifth inning, when the team was losing 0-1, after a close game of full count, he hit a line drive hit that fell in front of center field by hitting a fastball in the middle of Peralta's seventh pitch 91 miles. His 121st hit of the season with a launch angle of 14 degrees and a batting speed of 96.8 miles.
However, the inning ended in vain because the next batter, Rafael Devers, hit a double play by the second baseman at the first pitch.
Lee Jung-hoo was silent in four at-bats against Milwaukee the previous day, ending his 10-game hitting streak that continued until the San Diego Padres the previous day.
