The power-hitting prospects of the Lotte Giants and LG Twins led the military team to tie the record for the most consecutive wins at 14 in the Futures League. The performance of Han Dong-hee from Lotte and Lee Jae-won from LG, both born in 1999, has been remarkable.

The military team, led by manager Park Chi-wang, won 6-4 against SSG in the 2025 MediHeal KBO Futures League at Mun gyeong Stadium on the 18th. In the 8th inning, tied at 3-3, Han Dong-hee hit a two-run homer off Cheon Beom-seok's first pitch to record the game-winning hit, traveling 125 meters for his 21st home run of the season.

With this victory, the military team has won all 14 games since starting with a 12-6 victory against SSG in Mun gyeong on the 30th of last month. The 14 consecutive wins in the Futures League mark the 3rd record in history.

In 2021, the LG Futures team, led by manager Hwang Byeong-il, set the first 14 consecutive wins record in the Futures League from June 20th against Lotte in Icheon to August 4th against Samsung in Daegu. This was followed by the Hanwha Futures team, led by manager Choi Won-ho, who tied the record with 14 consecutive wins from August 25th against KIA in Seosan to September 14th against KIA in Hampyeong.

Three years later, the military team has become the 3rd team in history to achieve 14 consecutive wins in the Futures League. During this winning streak, the military team scored a total of 162 runs, averaging 11.6 runs per game, showcasing impressive offensive power. Notably, they exploded for 25 runs against SSG on the 17th. The 25 runs are the joint 4th highest in a single game for one team in the Futures League.

During the winning streak, the military team hit a remarkable total of 37 home runs, led by Lee Jae-won (10), Han Dong-hee (7), Jeon Ui-san (5), and Park Chan-hyuk (4), along with Ryu Hyun-in and Yun Jun-ho (3 each). They averaged 2.6 home runs per game. The team's total home runs for the season have reached 93, ranking them overwhelmingly first across both the northern and southern leagues.

While several players are performing well, the presence of the two power-hitting prospects, Han Dong-hee and Lee Jae-won, is particularly striking.

Han Dong-hee has a batting average of .400 (99 hits in 225 at-bats), with 21 home runs and 70 RBIs, an on-base percentage of .515, a slugging percentage of .787, and an OPS of 1.302 over 55 games, achieving remarkable results. He leads the Futures League in batting average, hits, home runs, RBIs, and OPS, virtually dominating the league. During the 14-game winning streak, he hit .523 (34 hits in 65 at-bats), with 7 home runs and 19 RBIs, driving the military team's offense.

Lee Jae-won has a batting average of .371 (49 hits in 132 at-bats), with 17 home runs and 54 RBIs, an on-base percentage of .485, a slugging percentage of .788, and an OPS of 1.273 over 34 games, demonstrating his powerful hitting. He ranks 1st in slugging percentage, 2nd in home runs, RBIs, and OPS, and 4th in on-base percentage, working alongside Han Dong-hee to lead the military team's offense. On the 7th against Samsung in Gyeongsan, he hit 3 home runs, achieving a batting average of .400 (21 hits in 52 at-bats), with 10 home runs and 27 RBIs during the 14-game winning streak.

After a 5-day break, the military team will challenge for the first 15 consecutive wins in the history of the Futures League against KIA in Mun gyeong on the 24th.
