San Francisco Giants outfielder Lee Jung-hoo extended his hitting streak to 18 games with a multi-hit performance in an 11-10 win over the Washington Nationals on June 10.

Lee went 2-for-4 with a walk and a steal while scoring twice. He kept the streak alive with a single in the sixth inning and drew a walk in the eighth before stealing second base. In the ninth, Luis Arraez doubled, Matt Chapman doubled, and Rafael Devers walked before Lee singled to load the bases. Bryce Eldridge then hit a grand slam for the Giants' walk-off win. Over the 18-game streak Lee is batting .500 and has raised his season average to .338, second in MLB behind Otto Lopez.
