'Wind's Son' Lee Jung-hoo (San Francisco Giants) is making his debut visit to Yankee Stadium.
The San Francisco Giants are set to play the first game of a three-game interleague series against the New York Yankees on 12th (Korean time) at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, New York.
San Francisco has lined up a starting roster against Major League veteran Marcus Stroman with a career record of 87 wins, featuring Mike Yastrzemski (right fielder), Willy Adames (shortstop), Lee Jung-hoo (center fielder), Matt Chapman (third baseman), Heliot Ramos (left fielder), Lamonte Wade Jr. (first baseman), Wilmer Flores (designated hitter), Patrick Bailey (catcher), and Tyler Fitzgerald (second baseman). The starting pitcher is Robby RAY.
Lee Jung-hoo is in his second year in Major League Baseball with a batting average of .333 (15 hits in 45 at-bats), 4 RBIs, 11 runs, and 3 stolen bases over 11 games, with an OPS of .908. He continues to demonstrate his power, ranking first in the Major League 'institutional sector' for doubles (7).
In the most recent game on the 10th against the Cincinnati Reds, he had an impressive performance with 3 hits out of 5 at-bats, 1 RBI, and 1 run. It was an extraordinary batting effort missing only the home run from a cycle hit. Attention is on whether he can carry this momentum into his debut visit to Yankee Stadium.
In response, the Yankees will field Paul Goldschmidt (first baseman), Ben Rice (designated hitter), Aaron Judge (right fielder), Cody Bellinger (left fielder), Anthony Volpe (shortstop), Jazz Chisholm Jr. (second baseman), Austin Wells (catcher), Oswald Peraza (third baseman), and Trent Grisham (center fielder).
San Francisco is ranked 2nd in the National League West with a record of 9 wins and 3 losses, while the Yankees rank 1st in the American League East with 7 wins and 5 losses.
