The Hanwha Eagles, who have lost eight consecutive games, saw their lineup explode early from the start.

On the 3rd, Hanwha completed a 'big inning' by scoring five runs against KT Wiz ace Ko Young-pyo in the first inning at Suwon KT Wiz Park.

Hanwha's pride, the so-called 'Pae-Moon-Kang-No-Kim', demonstrated their power with five consecutive hits. After leading off batter Choi In-ho was retired on a center field fly ball, Pae started the rally with a hit to left-center. Next, Moon Hyun-bin drove in the first run with a double that struck the fence on the left side of center field. Following Kang Baek-ho's hit to left field, Noh Si-hwan singled through the middle to bring Moon Hyun-bin home.

With one out and runners on first and second, sixth batter Kim Tae-yeon connected with Ko Young-pyo's fourth pitch, a 123 km/h changeup, sending it over the left-field wall. The three-run shot traveled 115 meters (his 12th of the season), putting Hanwha ahead 5-0.

Ko Young-pyo then retired Heo In-seo on a first baseman's fly ball and Hwang Young-mok on a second baseman's grounder, finishing his first inning with just 24 pitches. Ko has held opponents to three or fewer runs in seven consecutive games recently and is currently leading the team with 10 wins (6 losses) for the season, marking four straight victories.
