The Fire Fighters, making their first appearance, will enter the second half of the game against Dongguk University.
In episode 7 of the baseball entertainment program "Fireball Baseball," airing on the evening of the 16th at 8 p.m., the struggles of the Fire Fighters to score additional points and the fierce battle of Dongguk University, which dreams of a comeback, will unfold.
Earlier, the Fire Fighters were unable to score, held back by Dongguk University's formidable pitching in the early stages of the game. In the bottom of the 4th inning, filled with sighs of disappointment, the Fire Fighters created a scoring opportunity with a hit from Jeong Seong-hoon and a sacrifice bunt from Lee Taek-geun. In a situation with two outs and a runner on second, Park Jae-wook, who swung his bat with ambition, broke the 0-0 deadlock by scoring a crucial first run.
To protect a precarious one-point lead, Yoo Hee-kwan takes the mound again in the 5th inning. It’s a situation where a big blow can turn the game around at any moment. Yoo Hee-kwan calmly continues to battle against Dongguk University hitters with a mix of breaking balls and fastballs. Unable to find their rhythm against Yoo Hee-kwan, Dongguk University, with a resolute mindset, approaches a head-to-head battle. Can Yoo Hee-kwan, as the ace of the Fire Fighters, maintain his stand on the mound with the aesthetics of slowness?
Meanwhile, Dongguk University pushes forward with the same pitcher who struck out Lim Sang-woo. This pitcher further cornered the Fire Fighters by using breaking balls to disrupt their timing. Lee Taek-geun, watching the game from the dugout, noted with praise that the Dongguk University mound was becoming "even more impressive." However, an unexpected crisis awaits this pitcher, and to make matters worse, the Fire Fighters see their fourth batter, Lee Dae-ho, and fifth batter, Jeong Ui-yun, stepping up consecutively, heightening the tension of the game.
In particular, Jeong Ui-yun, the "Noryangjin No. 4 batter," is dominating the atmosphere with a drastically changed gaze and high concentration compared to last year. It remains to be seen whether Jeong Ui-yun, who has claimed the top batting average in the Fire Fighters and boasts an impressive hitting feel, can deliver a decisive blow against the Dongguk University mound.
The result of the matchup, which carries the pride of both the Fire Fighters and Dongguk University, will be revealed on the official Studio C1 YouTube channel at 8 p.m. on the 16th.
