Jung Hoo Lee goes hitless for second straight game as Giants fall to Blue Jays

Jung Hoo Lee, the star outfielder for the San Francisco Giants, continued his slump at the plate, failing to record a hit for the second game in a row. Facing the Toronto Blue Jays on July 9th, Lee went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts, further impacting his season batting average, which now stands at .308.

Lee struggled against the dominant pitching of Blue Jays starter Alek Manoah, who was in fine form throughout the game. Manoah held the Giants' offense, including Lee, hitless until the ninth inning. Lee's plate appearances saw him hit into an outfield fly out in the second inning, a called strikeout with runners in scoring position in the fifth, and another fly out in the seventh.
