Hanwha Eagles, which has been struggling since the suspension of consecutive wins, failed to prevent the third-place fall.메이저놀이터
The Hanwha Eagles lost to the NC Dinos in Game 6 of the 2025 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League held at Munsu Baseball Stadium in Ulsan on Sunday, losing 3-4. At the same time, the Lotte Giants defeated the LG Twins 11-4 to regain the second place, and the Hanwha Eagles fell from the second place to the third place. The Hanwha Eagles posted 29 wins and 20 losses (0.592) this season.
The Hanwha Eagles received the most attention among the 10 teams in the early days of this season. Notably, the team has continued its upward trend since mid-April, showing its commitment to autumn baseball. From the game against the KT Wiz in Daejeon on April 26 to the game against the Gocheok Kiwoom Heroes on May 11, the team has won 12 consecutive games by banking on its solid starting lineup.
Expectations of Hanwha fans have also risen to the full. Fans have filled the stands both at home and away. As a result, Hanwha has set a new record of 20 home and away games from the Sajik Lotte Giants on April 24 to the Daejeon SSG Landers on April 18.
However, Hanwha's upward trajectory was dampened last week. Hanwha lost 3-4 in the 11th inning of extra time against the Doosan Bears in Daejeon on the 13th, failing to seek its 13th consecutive win. Since then, it lost to Doosan on the 14th and 15th, ending the three-game series during the week with all three losses.
He managed to overcome his disappointment in the weekend as well. Cody Ponce, who had 18 strikeouts in the first game of a doubleheader on Wednesday, crushed SSG Landers 1-0 thanks to eight solid innings of strong pitching, but was defeated in the second game of a doubleheader (2-5) on Wednesday and in the game (3-7) on Wednesday. Consequently, he had to be satisfied with having one win in six games last week.
In particular, Hanwha had difficulty in releasing its offense by scoring a total of 12 points during the period. The team's batting average for the Hanwha Eagles was 0.239 last week, the fourth lowest after the Kiwoom Heroes (0.186), NC (0.220) and SSG Landers (0.232).
Hanwha continued its frustrating trend at the match against Ulsan NC Dinosaurs from Tuesday to Sunday. In the first game of three consecutive games, the team won the game 4-1 thanks to starting pitcher Moon Dong-ju's six scoreless innings, but the team had only seven hits.
The team was defeated due to poor batting performance. Hanwha lost to NC Dinos 2-5 on Monday, failing to secure its second consecutive win. The team lost to NC Dinos 3-4. It could not beat the minimum number of runs lost by pitchers. After suffering a slump in recent nine games with two wins and seven losses, the team ranked third for the first time in 22 days since April 30.
After the away game in Ulsan, Hanwha will play the match against Lotte in Daejeon from July 23 to 25. Afterwards, Hanwha will play the match against LG in Jamsil on July 27-29. As the gap between Hanwha and SSG Landers in fourth place is four games, there is still ⅔ of schedule for the regular season. This means that not only Hanwha but also all other teams cannot relax.
From Hanwha's point of view, if it accumulates wins in the games against Lotte and LG, it can make up for a little bit of disappointment, but if it achieves below-expectations results, the burden will inevitably increase. It remains to be seen whether Hanwha will be able to change its mood against the top teams.
