Three games do not define a major-league career, but it's enough to form an impression, one that says not to miss his at-bats.
SAN DIEGO — did something totally unexpected in his first major-league at-bat. He struck out. He swung at the first pitch of the San Francisco Giants’ season and fouled off a four-seam fastball from the San Diego Padres’ . Then he looked at a dump-in curveball. Then he looked at another four-seamer down the middle. Then he walked back to the dugout. A bit later that afternoon, Lee didn’t have time to savor his first major-league hit. Darvish picked him off first base.
When he swings, he’s going to make contact. And he’s got more power . “I’m impressed, especially nowadays when hitters swing and miss so much. But not him. He’s always on target.” It didn’t take long for the Padres to adjust their infield defense and station shortstop , Lee’s best friend and former Kiwoom Heroes teammate, as near to second base as the league’s shift limitations allow. Kim made an acrobatic stop of a hard-hit ball to take a hit away from Lee in the first inning Saturday.

ASUS Zenfone 11 Ultra: A Good Phone in a Market Dominated by GiantsAn excellent phone... er, we mean fone, albeit one that lacks the ‘wow’ factor you see in other flagships. Conservatively designed but well-specced and responsive, this year’s ASUS Zenfone 11 Ultra has a bigger screen, thinner bezel and larger battery than previous models. Still, its cameras don’t live up to the best on the market. It’s cursed with being a merely good phone, still a fine choice, in a market dominated by giants.Putting the word ‘ultra’ in the name of your fone is asking to be compared to the big boys. The only possible worse choice would be ‘pro’. Does the Asus Zenfone 11 Ultra stand up to the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra (and Honor Magic 6 Pro), with which it shares a chipset? We’ll find out
