Lee Jung-hoo Hits First Home Run in 32 Days, Reclaims 300 Batting Average with Multi-Hit Game

Lee Jung-hoo, who had fallen into a slump earlier this month, has fired a signal flare for his resurgence.

Hitting his first home run in 32 days alongside a multi-hit performance, he has reclaimed the 300 batting average mark.

Having seen his season batting average drop to the 200s yesterday (July 25), Lee appeared deeply determined as he delivered a powerful blow in the third inning against the Los Angeles Angels.

With two outs and runners on first and second, he hammered an inside breaking ball to launch a three-run arch just over the right-field wall.

Restarting his home run machinery after 32 days to record his sixth homer of the season, Lee also reached the milestone of 100 career RBIs in the big leagues.

Lee added a double to right field in the fifth inning, pulling his batting average back up to 302.

Lee's right-field defense also shone.

In the fourth inning, he crashed into the fence to catch an extra-base hit, and in the sixth inning, on a single to right, he caught a runner attempting to advance from first to third with a flawless one-hop throw, leading his team to its second consecutive win.
