It's even more shocking that Ryu Hyun-jin can do this…Hanwha's starting win streak ends at 8

Ryu Hyun-jin started in an away game against the Lotte Giants at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 24th and allowed four runs with seven hits (one homer) and four strikeouts in six innings.
Hanwha won the previous day (23rd) against Lotte and continued its eight-game winning streak for the first time in two years since 2023.
The winning process was more brilliant. All eight consecutive wins have been won, and the team has won eight consecutive games for the first time, over seven consecutive starts (1988, 1999 and 2001).
Now victory is a continuation of history. However, Hanwha's starting win history ended at 8. Ryu Hyun-jin failed to overcome the crisis at the last minute and eventually failed to continue his winning streak.

While supporting three runs from the lineup in the top of the second inning, he got a hit by Jeon Joon-woo after two outs in the bottom of the second inning, but struck out Yoo Kang-nam.
Ryu Hyun-jin, who took the third inning with a clean strikeout, lost his first run in the bottom of the fourth inning. A fastball thrown to leadoff hitter Yoon Dong-hee crossed the left fence and lost the first run. After that, he seemed to be shaken by Ko Seung-min's hit, but he handled Reyes with a double play and struck out Na Seung-yeop.
After one out in the bottom of the fifth inning, he got a hit after the game with Yoo Kang-nam going to the ninth pitch. However, he struck out Son Ho-young and Jeon Min-jae and grounded out to second base to end the inning.
A run was lost in the bottom of the sixth inning. With consecutive hits by leadoff hitters Hwang Sung-bin and Yoon Dong-hee, he became the first and second base with no outs. Reyes was sent out with four pitches on purpose and loaded the bases, but Na Seung-yeop's two-run timely hit returned. The score was 3-3. Later, when Jeon Jun-woo grounded out, Reyes, who was on third base, homered and gave up the lead 3-4. Yoo Kang-nam was caught with a fly ball to center field, but it became difficult to take the mound in the seventh inning as the number of pitches increased to 93.
In the end, Ryu Hyun-jin was replaced by Park Sang-won in the bottom of the seventh inning when he was losing 3-4.
