Free-agent outfielder Jung Hoo Lee has agreed to a six year, $113 million deal with the San Francisco Giants, sources confirmed to ESPN's Jeff Passan on Tuesday. The deal contains an opt-out after four seasons.

San Francisco's deal with Lee comes after the team missed out on prized free agent Shohei Ohtani, who signed a record $700 million deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

The New York Post was first to report the news of Lee's deal with the Giants.

Lee, 25, has been one of the top hitters in the Korean Baseball Organization (KBO) since he debuted in 2017 at age 18 for the Nexen/Kiwoom Heroes, going straight from high school to hit .
