Lee’s Injury and Future Steps
Lee hurt his shoulder in the first inning Sunday when it hit the right-center field wall as he leapt to try to make a catch on a drive by Cincinnati’s Jeimer Candelario.
Lee was one of the big offseason additions for the Giants after starring for years playing professionally in his native South Korea. He signed a $113 million, six-year contract with San Francisco and has been the team’s starting center fielder this season.
Lee is batting .262 with two homers, eight RBIs and .641 OPS in 37 games as he adjusts to a new league but has excelled in the field.
Other Team Updates
Also Tuesday, catcher Patrick Bailey returned to the seven-day concussion list after coming off it Saturday. But he had been scratched from the lineup the past two days with symptoms of a cold.
