Lee Jung-hoo (28, San Francisco Giants) recorded his sixth multi-hit game (two or more hits in a single game) of the season, continuing his sharp hitting form.

Lee went 2-for-6 with one run scored in a 7-6 road victory against the Washington Nationals in the 2026 Major League Baseball (MLB) season at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday (local time). Having recorded hits in five consecutive games, Lee raised his season batting average from .246 to .253 (19-for-75).

Starting as the No. 6 batter and right fielder, Lee singled to right field with one out in the top of the second inning while trailing 0-1. He then tried to score from first on the next batter's double but was thrown out at home. After hitting a center-field single in the sixth inning, Lee scored on Elliott Ramos's home run. With the score tied 6-6 in the top of the 10th inning and a runner on second with one out, he was called out on a looking strikeout, a disappointing at-bat.
