The Fireworks Fighters face a major crisis in the 2025 season due to Incheon High's fierce mound offense.

In the eighth episode of the studio C1 baseball variety program 'Fireworks Baseball', which will be released on the 23rd (Monday) at 8 p.m., the Fireworks Fighters are depicted as being shaken by Incheon High's early momentum.

On that day, Yu Hee-kwan, who has recorded 12 scoreless innings in the 2025 season, will be the starting pitcher for the Fighters. Having built trust with stable game management, Yu Hee-kwan gives the team anxiety with an unexpected performance in that game. Incheon High's batters press Yu Hee-kwan by calmly picking their pitches and even rallying support from the dugout to seize the momentum. Losing focus, Yu becomes uncharacteristically shaky as a control artist, and ultimately Park Jae-wook visits the mound as the game begins. Following a series of unexpected situations, the Fighters face their biggest challenge of the season.

However, the Fighters find a hint of retaliation, as the saying goes, 'Even if you enter a tiger's den, you can survive if you keep your wits about you.' In the early stages of the game, the Fighters struggle to find their timing against Incheon High's 'right-handed killer' starting pitcher. However, with the calmness of a veteran, they wait for an opportunity to turn the tide and inject tension into Incheon High's dugout.

The fierce power struggle continues. Incheon High tries to exploit the Fighters' weaknesses to find an offensive breakthrough. The initially sluggish Yu Hee-kwan regains his composure even amid sudden attacks, and the batters also elevate their focus to attempt a counterattack. Will the Fighters be able to douse Incheon High's fiery momentum and turn the tide?

Meanwhile, Incheon High, which was sailing smoothly, also finds itself in a crisis and brings out a trump card. They put a left-handed pitcher in the mound who is likely to be a high draft pick in the 2026 KBO League. The powerful pitches from a pitcher who knows how to make sharp breaking balls and challenge with inside pitches make the Fighters' lineup flinch significantly. Whether the frozen Fighters' lineup can recover will be confirmed through the power struggle between the two teams broadcast.
