Didn't you end the season?

Lee Jung-hoo and the San Francisco Giants are unusual. It's 'the companion of the wild.' How far can Lee Jung-hoo and San Francisco go.

Lee Jung-hoo's rise is scary. Lee Jung-hoo started as a first-center fielder against the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium in St. Louis, Missouri, the U.S. on the 7th (Korea time) and hit multi-hit. He played on the third base, including two hits and an opponent's error. It is a multi-hit game for three consecutive games.




Lee Jung-hoo's presence has faded due to the slump in hitting in the early and mid-season. The season's batting average also fell to 240. However, it is recovering in the second half of the year. In 41 games in the second half of the day, including multi-hitters, he has a batting average of 312 and is the No. 1 player in the team. He has a batting average of 0.60 percent in September. He also raised his batting average to 269 for the season.

Along with Lee Jung-hoo's rise, San Francisco is also aiming for a miracle. In fact, until mid-August, it was in season abandon mode. This is because the Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Diego Padres in the same National League West were too powerful. They competed against these teams until the early and mid-season, but fell sharply in the summer.

But something tremendous happened. He swept five consecutive wins and 11 wins in 12 games until his victory against the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday. It was such a tremendous momentum that the game, which was leading 2-0 on the day, was overturned 2-3 in the ninth inning.




Still, he maintains a four-game gap with the third-place New York Mets in the wild-card race. It's six games against the world's leading Dodgers, so it's worth looking for a miracle toward the wild card. Major League Baseball gives the third-place wild card a right to play in the postseason.
