The gap between the top duo has been erased. Hanwha Eagles emerged as a strong favorite this season with the strength of the stronger lineup.

Hanwha won 10-4 at the home game of the 2026 Shinhan SOL KBO League against the Kiwoom Heroes at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 29th with 15 hits.

Hanwha, which won 10-9 after an extended game in the 11th inning over four hours and 17 minutes the previous day, won its opening two consecutive games with a hot lineup.

Hanwha formed the lineup with Oh Jae-won (center fielder), Jonathan Ferraza (right wing), Moon Hyun-bin (left wing), Noh Si-hwan (third baseman), Kang Baek-ho (designated hitter), Chae Eun-sung (first baseman), Ha Joo-seok (second baseman), Choi Jae-hoon (catcher), and Shim Woo-jun (striker). The starting pitcher is Wang Yancheng in the Asian quarter.

The batters remained in the batting order without change, including hitters who hit 16 hits the previous day, as well as Noh Si-hwan and Kang Baek-ho, who hit the tying hit and finishing hit in the bottom of the 11th inning.

Kiwoom faced off with Lee Joo-hyung (center fielder), An Chi-hong (designated hitter), Trenton Brooks (first baseman), Park Chan-hyuk (left wing), Kim Gun-hee (possession), Eo Jun-seo (striker), Oh Sun-jin (third baseman), Choi Jae-young (second baseman), and Lee Hyung-jong (right wing). The starting pitcher is Ha Young-min.

In the top of the second inning, Wang Yancheng gave up a two-run double to rookie Choi Jae-young after consecutive hits by Kim Gun-hee and Eo Jun-seo. Choi Jae-young made an RBI single with his first at-bat hit. It is the third time in the team's history and the 12th time in the KBO League.

Hanwha responded immediately after giving up the first run. With one out in the bottom of the second inning, Chae Eun-sung got on base due to an opponent's error, and then followed by a hit by Choi Jae-hoon and a timely RBI by Shim Woo-joon. Rookie Oh Jae-won, who had three hits the previous day, then hit a hit during a two-run reversal.

Hanwha's heated lineup did not cool down. In the bottom of the third inning, leadoff hitter Noh Si-hwan got on base with a double, and Kang Baek-ho hit Ha Young-min's 131km/h folk ball and hit a 120m two-run home run over the left-center fence. Ha Young-min was substituted early without finishing the third inning.

In the fourth inning, he loaded the bases with consecutive hits by Peraza and Moon Hyun-bin and a walk by Noh Si-hwan. Kiwoom moved outfielders to the right by operating the shift, and Kang Baek-ho's missed ball fell on the left-field line and brought two runners home. Kang Baek-ho also dug in to second base. I've already completed a four-run game.

Wang Yancheng, who had a clean pitch until the fifth inning, shook and stepped down in the sixth inning, but Kim Do-bin gave up one run with a sacrifice fly and finished the inning stably.

In the bottom of the sixth inning, he drove in three runs due to Peraza's hit, Moon Hyun-bin's walk, and Roh Si-hwan's infield hit and the opponent's defense error to fill in 10 runs early. In the bottom of the eighth inning, Chae Eun-sung, the only one who had no hit on the day, hit a heavy hit against Jeon Joon-pyo, recording all the starters' hits.

Kang Baek-ho, the main character of the previous day's walk-off hit, led the team to victory with two hits, five RBIs and two runs from five times at bat, including a home run. Peraza, who had three hits the previous day, led the lineup with three hits and two runs, and Noh Si-hwan and Ha Joo-seok also made multi-hitters.

Wang Yancheng pitched 95 pitches in five ⅓ innings, giving up four hits, two outs, five strikeouts, and three runs to secure his first KBO league victory. Jung Woo-joo, who had a disappointing pitch the day before, pitched in relief with two outs in the top of the seventh inning and threw only 10 consecutive fastball, allowing one strikeout and no run in one ⅓ inning.
