If I hadn’t known this was because some travel documents were left back in Korea, I would’ve said LA is taking their rivalry with San Francisco to the next level 😆 Free Jung Hoo Lee! #MLB
San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee was detained Wednesday evening at Los Angeles International Airport, his agent Scott Boras told the Chronicle.

Congrats to Carlos Beltran, Andruw Jones and Jeff Kent for being inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame! Always cool to see players I grew up watching get into Cooperstown. #MLB

Really bummed about this news. Ha-Seong Kim recently signed a $20 million one-year contract with the Atlanta Braves. Hopefully his recovery goes well (4-5 months) and we’ll see this Korean shortstop back in action soon. #MLB #baseball
Finger surgery will sideline #Braves shortstop Ha-Seong Kim until at least the middle of May:
