Giants' Jung Hoo Lee Briefly Detained at LAX, Quickly Cleared

Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee was briefly detained at LAX on Wednesday due to a paperwork issue, which was swiftly clarified by the team and his agent. Lee, 26, was quickly cleared to travel and proceed as planned. The incident, confirmed by GM Zack Minasian as non-political, involved misplaced travel documentation. Lee, who posted career highs in 2025 (.266 AVG, 8 HR, 55 RBI), is scheduled for a Giants fan event Saturday and will play for Korea in the WBC in March.
