If you live on the East Coast or just haven't been paying much attention to the San Francisco Giants, it's time to start, and breakout center fielder Jung Hoo Lee is a big reason why.
Lee has been absolutely raking at the plate, and his latest RBI double helped lead the Giants to another victory over the Milwaukee Brewers, 6-5, on April 24.
This win completed an important series victory over the Brew Crew, as San Francisco took three out of four.

As noted above, it feels like most of the league is still sleeping on Lee despite his .333 batting average, .981 on-base plus slugging and 1.6 WAR. But the MLB made a public attempt to change that on April 25, encouraging baseball fans to tune in and watch the rising star on this week's edition of Friday Night Baseball on Apple TV+.
"Jung Hoo Lee is must-see TV ," the official MLB X account hyped. "Don't miss your chance to see the 'Grandson of the Wind' on #FridayNightBaseball."
Lee has 32 hits, 11 doubles and 16 RBI through his first 25 games. He also has 3 home runs, 2 triples, 11 walks and 3 stolen bases, so Lee can do a little bit of everything on the diamond.
The Giants have been one of the MLB's pleasant surprises so far in 2025, with a 17-9 record that trails only the New York Mets and San Diego Padres.
They currently sit second within a highly competitive NL West, sandwiched right in between the Padres and the Los Angeles Dodgers, with a half-game separating San Francisco from each division rival on either side.
