San Francisco Giants rookie Jung Hoo Lee is quickly adapting to life in MLB, and it hasn't taken long for him to become a fan favorite in The Bay.

Lee registered a pair of hits during Thursday night's 5–0 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks, and no one in the stadium was more fired up than one particular group of fans, all of whom were donning the outfielder's No. 51 jersey.

A group of around 15 strong from Lee's fan club were cheering him on during Thursday's win, and cameras caught them having an absolute blast with Lou Seal, San Francisco's beloved mascot. The group was dancing around with their arms in the air, enjoying the game at Oracle Park.

The 25-year-old is in his first season in MLB after making the move to the United States following a successful stint in the Korean Baseball Organization, where he won the league's MVP award in 2022. Lee signed with the Giants on a six-year, $113 million deal during free agency after being posted by the Kiwoom Heroes.

Lee is hitting .282 with one home run, five RBI and two stolen bases across his first 19 games in MLB.
