'Son of the Wind' Lee Jung-hoo (San Francisco Giants outfielder) hit his 8th double of the season, continuing his hitting streak into the third game. However, the team failed to achieve a third consecutive victory.

Lee Jung-hoo started as the third center fielder in the away game against the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, New York, on the 13th (Korean time). After drawing a walk with two outs in the first inning, Lee entered his second at-bat with no outs and two away in the third inning, and he had to swallow his disappointment with a line drive to the shortstop.

In the sixth inning, Lee Jung-hoo stepped on first base due to a fielder's choice, and he scored after Matt Chapman drew a walk and Wilmer Flores hit a single to center. With the team trailing 4-8, Lee hit a double to right field with two outs and a runner on first base in the seventh inning, his 8th of the season. The preceding runner, Mike Yastrzemski, reached third base. Although Lee set the stage for the comeback, Matt Chapman struck out swinging, dampening the momentum. In the ninth inning, Lee failed to capitalize on a chance with no outs and runners on second and third, striking out. He recorded 1 hit and 1 run in 4 at-bats, dropping his season batting average from .340 to .333.
