JTBC's "Strongest Baseball" ended the 2025 season meaningfully by winning the strongest cup championship and a special match with the sincere fighting spirit of retired players. It was a season in which the process of obtaining the name "the strongest" and the sincerity toward baseball shone.
In the 138th episode of "The Greatest Baseball" (directed by Hwang Kyo-jin, Sung Chi-kyung, Ahn Sung-han, and Jung Yoon-ah), which aired on the 23rd, the second in-person game of the 2025 season and the last game of the season, a special match between "The Greatest Breakers" and "Seoul Baseball's prestigious high school joint team" was held. "The Strongest Breakers" ended the final game of the season beautifully with a 6:5 victory, showing the seasoned management of KBO legend players despite the energetic performances of high school aces.
In particular, retired players who united as "Breakers" and became "the strongest Breakers" shone again on the ground. By leading and training their bodies like never before, they broke their limits, and each player's growth narrative created a heart-warming drama on the ground. Above all, their affectionate sincerity toward baseball added to their heart. The authenticity of retired players, who put all their shoulders on one pitch and stay up all night in a sense of hitting, penetrated the hearts of viewers.
Yoon Gil-hyun, who raised his sense of play with shadow pitching he practiced every night with sweat drops, said, "As expected, baseball is fun," and Yoon Seok-min expressed his unwavering affection for baseball, saying, "It's been a long time, but your heart is the same as when you were active." Cho Yong-ho said, "I think it was a lie to say that I didn't regret retiring. I was so excited to train and play with my brothers," he confessed, stimulating his tear glands. The "one-team chemistry" of the Breakers, who relied on each other, read each other, and became a team, added to the emotion.
The spirit and passion of the powerful amateur baseball players who met on the journey to become the "strongest breakers" sparked support. Deoksu and Hanyang University players, who play their games in front of KBO legend players without being intimidated, gave the Breakers one loss each, leaving a strong impression on baseball fans, raising expectations for the day they meet in the professional league. In addition, even though playing baseball is a burden due to lack of income, the independent league team's running toward its dream of becoming a professional while working part-time and independent league has created a sense of shame. The "strongest baseball," which sheds light on the performance of high school and college players who will lead the next generation of Korean baseball, as well as independent league players who are running relentlessly toward their dream of entering the professional league, added meaning by donating the prize money to the amateur baseball development fund.
Above all, the 'strongest baseball' shone because of the enthusiastic support of the fans. "It's really heartbreaking to be able to play baseball in front of those who support me. As Oh Joo-won said, "Playing baseball just by watching that," the fans' support was the power to recall the players to the "Liz days." The uniforms of various teams that filled the stands were the identity of the "Breakers." Just as players who played on different teams sincerely united toward baseball and became a team, fans also cheered for the Breakers' journey with a love of baseball, and there were fans who shouted fighting at any moment, so the Breakers were able to win the title of "the best."
In this way, what the "strongest baseball" delivered to viewers was "authenticity." The sincerity and hard work of baseball-loving players and the sincere support of fans who applaud the sweaty players gave a more valuable resonance than any other figure.
