Hanwha won 2-0 against SSG Landers in the KBO League in the 2025 season at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 15th.
Hanwha starter Ponce pitched seven scoreless innings. He reported his third win (unbeaten) of the season. Ponce threw 98 pitches until the seventh inning and struck out 12. He allowed only three walks and one hit.
Han Seung-hyuk was responsible for the eighth inning and Kim Seo-hyun was responsible for the ninth inning. Kim Seo-hyun had four saves while maintaining a 0.00 ERA for the season.
SSG starter Anderson also played his part by allowing one run in five innings, but lost the game.
Hanwha got off to a fresh start after scoring the first run in the top of the first inning.
Leadoff Lee Jin-young hit a deep infield hit. Floral hit a right-handed hit to become the first and third base. Moon Hyun-bin hit an RBI grounder to shortstop.
Since then, the 0 march has continued amid good pitching by both teams. The gap broke out when Anderson threw 88 pitches and was replaced at a relatively early point.
Hanwha, which had a close 1-0 lead, got a valuable extra point in the top of the seventh inning.
Hwang Young-mook, the leadoff hitter, opened with a left-handed hit. Choi Jae-hoon buntted to send. SSG's second pitcher Kim Gun-woo made a throwing error to the first base. The first and third bases with no outs have been set up.

SSG's error came out again in Lee Won-seok's at-bat with one out and runners on the second and third bases. Lee Won-seok hit a missed ground ball to third base. SSG third baseman Park Ji-hwan spilled the ball. Hwang Young-mook, who was at third base, scored lightly. Since then, Choi Jae-hoon was caught in a rundown between second and third bases and was out, breaking the flow. With two outs and runners on second, Floral struck out and failed to score additional points.
Hanwha entered the defense in the bottom of the seventh inning in a somewhat uncomfortable state because it could not clearly open the score gap.
Ponce, who threw 86 pitches until the sixth inning, also took the mound in the seventh inning. Ponce turned Hanyu Island's Lee Ji-young and Oh Tae-gon into a three-way withdrawal. He prevented the situation that almost passed the flow with his own power.
At the bottom of the ninth inning with a 2-0 lead, Kim Seo-hyun, the closer, came out. Kim Seo-hyun showed off her power by putting in a 157-kilometer fastball on the first pitch. Kim Seo-hyun only gave up one hit after two outs and kept the win unshakable.
