San Francisco Giants' Lee Jung-hoo (27) has not hit a single in two consecutive games. However, he has succeeded in reaching base for seven consecutive games with a walk.
On the 10th (Korea time), Lee Jung-hoo started as the third hitter and center fielder in a spring training game against the San Diego Padres held at Scottsdale Stadium in Scottsdale, Arizona, recording 2 at-bats with no hits, 1 walk, and 1 run scored.
His spring training batting average has dropped from .364 to .333 (8 hits in 24 at-bats).
In the first inning with no outs and a runner on second base, Lee Jung-hoo faced San Diego right-handed starter Nick Pivetta and was struck out in a 'Samjin.' In the fourth inning, with no outs and a runner on first base, he drew a walk from right-hander Matt Waldron, leading to a consolidation of runners on first and second.
Following that, Lee Jung-hoo advanced to second base on Matt Chapman's single to center and scored after Waldron's consecutive wild pitches.
In the fifth inning with two outs and a runner on second, Lee Jung-hoo was out on a ground ball to first base against Waldron and finished the game after being replaced by Turner Hill before the sixth inning.
In center field defense, he made outs on Brandon Loughridge's line drive in the second inning and Yuli Gurriel's pop fly in the fifth inning.
