Milwaukee: Lee Jung-hoo of the San Francisco Giants is on a heater. The South Korean outfielder batted 4-for-5 with an RBI and scored three times, as the Giants defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 12-9 at American Family Field in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on Thursday (local time). According to Yonhap News Agency, Lee's four-hit effort marked a personal milestone, extending his hitting streak to a career-best 12 games. This was his fourth game of the season with at least four hits, three of which have occurred in the past week. Since his return from a 10-day injured list last Friday, Lee has batted an impressive 19-for-29, elevating his batting average from .268 to .322. As of Thursday, he ranked fourth overall in Major League Baseball (MLB) for batting average. Now in his third MLB season, Lee's performance has shown significant improvement compared to previous years. During his rookie season in 2024, Lee played in 37 games with a .262 average, hindered by injuries. Last season, he maintained a .266 average across 1 50 games. In the game against the Brewers, Lee maintained his hitting streak with a single in the second inning, followed by an RBI double in the third. Despite grounding out in the fourth, Lee secured two singles in the Giants' six-run seventh inning. The Giants amassed a total of 20 hits in their victory.
