In the 10th episode of the baseball entertainment program 「Firework Baseball」, which was released on Studio C1's official YouTube channel on the 7th, Fireworks Fighters won 9:2 over Seongnam High School in Seoul, the winner of the 79th Golden Lion National High School Baseball Tournament, with Lee Dae-eun's six scoreless innings of quality start and firework performance by the lower hitters in the 7, 8, and 9.
Lee Dae-eun, who started, blocked Seongnam High School's batters with perfect pitching. He used a knuckle curve as a decisive ball to completely take away the timing of opposing batters, showing the words 'Class is eternal'.
In Seongnam High School in Seoul, Cho Yun-ho, who won the Outstanding Pitcher Award in the Golden Lion King of Kings, took the mound. Cho Yun-ho seemed nervous, his control seemed to be shaking, but he soon settled down and deleted the inning. He blocked the Fighters' lineup with a 'no hit' until the third inning.
The game began to fluctuate in the fourth inning. Lee Dae-eun was hit by the opponent's batter and Park Jae-wook's catch miss continued, putting him in crisis. It became more disadvantageous with a surprise bunt that caught Seongnam High School off guard, but Lee Dae-eun ended the inning by showing a calm defense with Lee Dae-ho.
Since then, the Fighters have also taken a chance by getting a straight walk against Cho Yun-ho, who is suffering from control difficulties. As the first pitch against Jung Eui-yoon was far away, Seongnam High School relentlessly replaced the pitcher with Golden Lion MVP Oh Hoon-taek. Chung Eui-yoon and Lee Taek-geun withdrew from Oh Hoon-taek's elaborate pitching, but the Fighters' power was strong. After two outs, Jung Sung-hoon, Park Jae-wook and Kim Jae-ho hit consecutive hits, leading Seongnam High School with a score of 2:0. In the last broadcast, the Fighters' Houta-seon, who was in charge of laughter, showed the aspect of 'main job genius' for the first time in a long time.
The Fighters, riding the flow, widened the score gap. Lee Dae-ho and Jung Eui-yoon made it 3:0 with consecutive hits, and Seongnam High School replaced left-hander Moon Jung-seo. The Fighters players were confused by Moon Jung-seo's fast form and slow pitching, but eventually they ran to 6:0 thanks to the opponent's balk and walk.
In the seventh inning, Yoo Hee-kwan took the mound with 'the ball strangely accelerated' When he had consecutive hits, manager Kim Sung-geun came up to the mound himself and advised "The ball is fast." Jung Geun-woo said to Yoo Hee-kwan, "You don't want to give me a score, do you? You can check it out." After that, Yoo Hee-kwan checked out the runner on second base with a fantastic chemistry with Jung Geun-woo. The resourcefulness of 'foxes wearing bears' was a brilliant play.
In the bottom of the seventh inning, the Fighters added one more run with a push-out walk with no outs and bases loaded with hits from Lee Taek-geun, Jung Sung-hoon and Park Jae-wook. With only three runs left until the cold game, Jung Geun-woo hit a hit and ran 9:0 away.
However, letting one's guard down can cause a crisis. The Fighters wasted one point due to back-to-back errors by third baseman Jung Sung-hoon and first baseman Lee Dae-ho. After that, Seongnam High School Captain Lee Seo-joon scored a hit against Yoo Hee-kwan, making it 9:2. But there was no more crisis. In the top of the ninth inning, the Fighters succeeded in winning six consecutive games by turning Seongnam High School batters into floating balls and double plays.
Next week 'Fireball' will feature the second game between the Fighters with a strong batting feeling and Seongnam High School, which challenged again with 'Crazy Vitality'. The Fighters face their first loss since their foundation.
On the other hand, episode 10 of 『Fireworks』 surpassed 100,000 viewers at the same time within 10 minutes of its initial release. The highest number of viewers at the same time was 238,000, which made me realize the keen interest in 「Fireworks」.
