Prior to the game on the 10th, MLB.com selected ’10 players to watch based on Statcast indicators’ and included Lee Jeong-hoo (26, San Francisco). The gist of it was, “Lee Jeong-hoo has been unlucky so far, but luck will soon follow.”
Until the day before, Lee Jeong-hoo had a batting average of 0.238 (10 hits in 42 at-bats), 1 home run, 4 RBI, and an on-base percentage of 0.306. Even though it was early in the season, his numbers fell short of expectations. However, this media outlet presented a different analysis than the ‘classical record’. The media said, “Lee Jeong-hoo’s strong hitting percentage is 54.1% and his hitting speed is 93.4 miles (150 km per hour). On the other hand, he said, “The miss swing rate is only 8.8%,” and “(Contrary to the visible records), his at-bats really show his strengths.”
Just a few hours after this article was published, Lee Jeong-hoo threw away his bad luck by hitting multiple hits in two consecutive games (two or more hits in one game). Lee Jeong-hoo played as the number one hitter and center fielder in the Major League Baseball (MLB) home game against Washington held at Oracle Park in San Francisco on this day, hitting 2 hits in 5 at-bats. Lee Jung-hoo, who hit five hits in the last three games after going hitless in three consecutive games, raised his season batting average to 0.255 (12 hits in 47 at-bats).
Lee Jeong-hoo, who had hit only a base hit in both of his previous two at-bats, technically caught left-handed pitcher Robert Garcia’s low outside slider in the bottom of the fifth inning when he was down 1-3, and hit a hit that extended in front of center field. This is Lee Jeong-hoo’s fourth hit of the season against a left-handed pitcher.
Even in the bottom of the 9th inning when the team was down 3-5, Lee Jeong-hoo was the leadoff hitter and hit a left-field hit by pushing Washington’s right-handed fastball pitcher Kyle Finnegan’s high fastball (156 km/h). San Francisco had a chance to load the bases with no outs thanks to a hit by Wilmer Flores and a walk by Jorge Soler, but they were unable to turn the game around. Lee Jung-hoo was forced out at home when Michael Conforto grounded out in front of the pitcher, and the game ended as Matt Chapman followed up with a double play in front of the shortstop. San Francisco, which suffered two consecutive losses, fell to 4th place in the National League West Division with 4 wins and 8 losses.
