Lee Jung-hoo hit a 151 km/h sinker from opposing left-handed starter Martin Perez.

The batted ball headed in front of the shortstop,

and Lee Jung-hoo sprinted forward and was ruled safe at first base.

However, multiple hits (more than 2 hits in one game) were not achieved.

In his first at-bat in the first inning, Lee Jung-hoo missed Perez’s outside changeup and struck out for the 10th time this season.

In the 4th inning, he targeted Perez’s 148 km/h sinker and made a 160 km/h fast ball,

but it flew right in front of center fielder Jack Swinsky.

The batted ball in the last at-bat in the 9th inning was really disappointing.

Jung-hoo Lee kicked up Pittsburgh left-hander Josh Fleming’s 135 km/h changeup and made a batted ball that flew 113 meters at 165 km/h.

However, substitute center fielder Michael A. Taylor jumped slightly and caught the batted ball.
