“If we win the last game, we’ll be in 8th place” Moon Hyun-bin hits a 2-run home run that ties the score, hitting a wedge, sparking a 2-game winning streak after 6 straight losses for Hanwha
The Hanwha Eagles won two games in a row after six consecutive losses before the end of the season. They achieved a 7-4 comeback win against the Lotte Giants held at Daejeon Baseball Stadium on the 15th. Veteran Taeyang Lee started as the starter and pitched well, allowing 2 runs in 5 innings, and ‘high school rookie’ Hyunbin Moon posted 3 RBIs, including a 2-run home run.
There is one game left against Lotte on the 16th. If they win this game, they will take down the Samsung Lions and rise to 8th place. Samsung lost the final match to NC Dinos on the 15th, and Hanwha won that day, reviving the spark for 8th place.메이저놀이터
Lotte took the lead with a home run.
In the top of the second inning, leadoff batter No. 5 Lee Jeong-hoon reached base due to a catching error by Hanwha third baseman Noh Si-hwan. With 2 outs and runners on second base, No. 8 Lee Hak-ju hit a 2-run home run. A 140km/h fastball thrown by Hanwha starter Taeyang Lee was driven to a high course in the middle of the strike zone.
In the bottom of the second inning, Hanwha’s Moon Hyun-bin responded with a tying two-run home run. With one out and one on first base, he caught a 144 km/h fastball thrown by Lotte starting pitcher Na Kyun-an and flew it into the stands in right-center. The score is tied 2-2.

In the bottom of the 6th inning, Hanwha broke the 2-2 balance.
