**MLB's worst misfortune, the calm before the storm?**

Lee Jeong-hoo (26, San Francisco) hit a well-hit ball, but was blocked by the unique stadium structure. Bad luck has already continued for three days in a row. There is actually data that clearly explains Lee Jeong-hoo's misfortune. To this extent, the baseball gods seem to be ignoring Lee Jeong-hoo so far. However, there are indicators that we can expect good days to come someday if we continue to maintain our current batting average. Now is the time for both players and fans to be patient and watch.

Lee Jung-hoo appeared as the starting center fielder in the '2024 Major League' game against the Boston Red Sox held at Fenway Park in Boston, Massachusetts on the 3rd (Korean time), but only had no hits in four at-bats. In fact, if you look at the details of the batted ball, it was not a day where there would be no hits, but such is the case in the sport of baseball. The team won 3-1, but Lee Jeong-hoo had only one hit in the three games away to Boston, and his batting average fell from 0.259 to 0.250. His season on-base percentage fell from 0.320 to 0.310, and his season slugging percentage fell from 0.339 to 0.328. OPS, which is the sum of on-base percentage and slugging percentage, is 0.638. However, the team took consolation by winning 3-1.

Before coming to Boston, Lee Jeong-hoo was still showing off his hitting ability. He also hit in all three home games against Pittsburgh. His batting average before the trip to Boston was 0.269. However, he was unable to hit in his first and last games in Boston, and his batting average was drastically reduced. In fact, it was a series in which many good balls were hit long distances, but due to the unique size of the stadium, there were hits that did not become home runs throughout the three days. For Lee Jeong-hoo, it was a shame that this striking feeling happened at Fenway Park.

On this day, San Francisco had Jeong-hoo Lee (center fielder) - Jorge Solaire (designated hitter) - Wilmer Flores (first baseman) - Michael Conforto (left fielder) - Patrick Bailey (catcher) - Matt Chapman (third baseman) - Tyro Estrada (second baseman). -Mike Yastrzemski (right fielder) -Nick Ahmed (shortstop) was the batting order. Kyle Harrison, a left-handed pitcher, appeared as the starting pitcher.

Boston, opposing this, is Jaron Duran (center fielder) - Rafael Devers (third baseman) - Tyler O'Neill (right fielder) - Rob Refsnyder (left fielder) - Connor Wong (catcher) - Garrett Cooper (designated hitter) - Bobby Dalbec (first baseman) - Sedan Raffaella (shortstop) - Jack Short (second baseman) came out as the starters, and the starter to face Jeong-hoo Lee was right-hander Joshua Winkowski.

Lee Jeong-hoo had to reflect on his disappointment from the disappointing hit from the start. In the first at-bat, he hit the sinker with all his might and hit a big ball that flew 400 feet (approximately 122 meters). The exit speed was 103 miles (166 km) and the launch angle was 29 degrees, ideal for hitting a home run. However, the batted ball ended as a fly ball to center field. According to 'Baseball Savant', the expected batting average for this batted ball was a whopping 0.800, and it was the home stadium of San Francisco, Oracle Park, Oriole Park at Camden Yards (Baltimore Orioles), Great American Ball Park (Cincinnati Reds), Progressive Field (Cleveland Guardians), At Angels Stadium (LA Angels), Dodger Stadium (LA Dodgers), PNC Park (Pittsburgh Pirates), T-Mobile Park (Seattle Mariners), Nationals Park (Washington Nationals), and Londipo Park (Miami Marlins), it is measured by hitting balls that go over. done. If this ball had been hit at home, it would have been a home run, but it happened to come from Fenway Park.

For Lee Jeong-hoo, it was the third consecutive day he missed a home run, following the 1st and 2nd. In the game against Boston on the 1st, Lee Jung-hoo appeared as the leadoff hitter in the 9th inning and hit a big ball to the right against right-handed pitcher Justin Slayton, but it was only a fly ball to right field. This hit was disappointing because it could have been a home run in any of the 26 major league stadiums. On the 2nd, he made a big hit that extended to the right against right-handed cutter Crawford in the 5th inning, but it also ended up as a fly ball in right field. This hit was measured as a hit that would have been a home run in 14 stadiums, which is about half of the major league stadiums.

If it had been at a certain stadium, he could have hit a home run for three days in a row, but due to the structure of Fenway Park's stadium, he only had one hit over three games. No matter how mentally strong Lee Jeong-hoo was, he was bound to be psychologically affected because a well-hit ball did not become a hit.

San Francisco took the lead by one point in the third inning when the score was 0-0 when Mike Yastrzemski hit a solo shot. Lee Jung-hoo came to the plate in the third inning with a 1-0 lead and no runners on base, but only hit a fly ball to center field. Then, Boston easily tied the score in the third inning with leadoff hit by Rafael Devers and a timely double by Tyler O'Neill.

Lee Jeong-hoo made an error-prone play in the 4th inning. Sunlight was a problem this time too. After one out in the fourth inning, Rafaela's batted ball landed in the direction of center field. It was a batted ball that he could catch with ease. However, Lee Jeong-hoo could not find the ball and ended up being recorded as a double. He was recorded as a hit, not an error. However, Lee Jung-hoo later made up for his erroneous play by clearing Duran's well-hit ball with a diving catch. It was a well-hit line drive, but Lee Jeong-hoo made a quick judgment and jumped down, throwing his body at the last moment to catch the ball. He did not spare himself to the point where his hat and sunglasses were taken off. Lee Jeong-hoo vented his anger by hitting the ground with his hand, and his teammates encouraged him and finished the inning without giving up any runs.

However, there were no hits after that. Lee Jeong-hoo's third at-bat in the 6th inning was limited to a fly ball to left field. With the score tied 1-1, San Francisco created an opportunity in the 7th inning with consecutive hits by Patrick Bailey and Matt Chapman, then earned valuable points with Tyro Estrada's timely hit. Then, with one out, Nick Ahmed hit a sacrifice fly to add one more point. However, Lee Jeong-hoo, who came to bat right after Ahmed, was stuck with a fly ball to left field this time, and did not get another chance to bat.

However, San Francisco was led by starter Harrison (5 innings, 3 hits, 7 strikeouts, and 1 run), followed by Walker (1 inning, no runs), Miller (1 inning, no runs), Rogers (1 inning, no runs), and Doval (1 inning, no runs). The pursuit was blocked and victory was achieved.
