Lee Jung-hoo Hits 4th Triple of the Season... San Francisco Suffers Fifth Consecutive Loss

Lee Jung-hoo of the San Francisco Giants has recorded his fourth triple of the season.

Playing as the sixth batter and right fielder in an away game against the Kansas City Royals of Major League Baseball (MLB) held at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, today (July 23, Korean time), Lee went 1-for-4 with one RBI and one run scored.

Extending his hitting streak to four consecutive games with one hit in each, Lee's season batting average stands at 0.302.

Lee was retired in the second inning on a line drive straight to the shortstop.

Even the baserunner on third base failed to return in time and was tagged out, ending the inning in a double play.

After grounding out to first base in the fifth inning, Lee hit an RBI triple down the right-field line with two outs and a runner on first in the seventh inning, extending the lead to 2-0.

He then scored immediately on Willy Adames' double.

He wrapped up the game in the ninth inning with a flyout to the third baseman.

San Francisco, holding a 3-0 lead, allowed five runs in the bottom of the seventh inning to suffer a 4-5 comeback loss, sinking into a five-game losing streak.
