Oracle Park is just as quirky and unique as the city it occupies. Giants fans not only embrace a player's individuality, but celebrate it in a fun, cult-like manner only they know how. Long gone are the days of Pablo Sandoval panda hats and Brian Wilson beards filling the stands at Third & King - although you still will see some every now and again -- but that same quirkiness has manifested itself again with one of the Giants' most exciting and marketable players: Jung Hoo Lee. The 26-year-old's rookie 2024 campaign was cut short due to a serious shoulder injury he sustained in May last year, but through 10 games in 2025, Lee has picked up right where he left off and is playing like the do-it-all star he was in the KBO before he signed a six-year, $113 million contract with San Francisco in December 2023.
