Hanwha Eagles, who were making all-out efforts to advance to autumn baseball until the end of the season, lost their momentum.

Hanwha, whose pace was the best in the second half of the year, recently left due to accumulation of shoulder fatigue, making holes in the starting lineup. He suffered from difficulties in running the mound and lost five consecutive games. Hanwha's hopes for fall baseball, which has been pushed from sixth to eighth, are also fading.

Hanwha, which won the Jamsil LG match on the 6th with Ryu Hyun-jin pitching six innings of one run. In the remaining two games, head coach Kim Kyung-moon took out an alternative starting card, but the result was a failure. Lee Sang-kyu allowed one run in three innings on the 7th, and Cho Dong-wook allowed two runs in two innings on the 8th. For two days, Hanwha had a bullpen day, consuming 12 pitchers, but lost consecutive games.

It was a pity for Hanwha that Moon Dong-joo, who was preparing to start the game against LG on the 8th, felt shoulder fatigue and was absent. No special abnormalities were found as a result of hospital examinations, but the player himself is feeling uncomfortable. Hanwha, which had to quickly end its losing streak, ended its away match in Jamsil Incheon with three consecutive losses on the 10th, with the starting pitcher Weiss pitching two runs in six innings.

Hanwha, which returned to Daejeon on the 11th, lost 10-1 against Samsung, with Barria sluggish in 3.2 innings and six runs. Hanwha, which failed to break its losing streak, was pulled out early on the 12th, allowing four runs and one batter while starter Kim Ki-joong caught one out count in the first inning. Cho Dong-wook, who rushed to the mound, cleaned up the first inning, but allowed three runs in 3.2 innings. In the end, Hanwha, which lost 7 to 1 and was in a quagmire for five consecutive losses, widened to four games apart from fifth-place Doosan. Hanwha, whose hopes for fall baseball are disappearing, will move to Busan and play three consecutive games against Lotte.

Hanwha Eagles, which had 11,719 spectators on the day and accumulated 745,797 spectators this season, lost five consecutive games on the day they achieved the highest number of spectators in a season.
