Lee Jung-hoo Goes Hitless with One Walk in Atlanta Game... Batting Average Drops to 0.288

San Francisco Giants starting outfielder Lee Jung-hoo remained hitless, failing to maintain his batting average in the 0.290 range.

Starting as the fifth batter and right fielder in an away game against the Atlanta Braves in the 2026 Major League Baseball (MLB) season held at Truist Park in Atlanta, Georgia, today (Sept. 1), Lee recorded four at-bats without a hit and drew one walk.

His season batting average dropped from 0.291 to 0.288.

He stepped up as the leadoff hitter in the top of the second inning and grounded out to second base.

In the top of the fourth inning, trailing 1-2, he got on base as a leadoff hitter with a walk, but failed to score as the subsequent batting lineup remained silent.

With the score tied 2-2 in the top of the fifth with two outs and runners on first and second, he hit a grounder to the shortstop and was put out.

In the seventh, he flew out to right field, and in his final plate appearance in the ninth, he bowed his head after striking out looking on three pitches.

Atlanta's Kim Ha-seong sat out the game, so a matchup between the two players did not take place.

San Francisco concentrated 11 team hits to secure a 7-3 victory.

San Diego Padres' Song Sung-mun, starting as the ninth batter and shortstop in an away game against the Cincinnati Reds held at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati, Ohio, went hitless with four at-bats.

His season batting average dropped from 0.198 to 0.192.
