Hanwha Eagles are more likely to take a day off due to rain.

Hanwha was scheduled to play against the KIA Tigers at Gwangju Kia Champions Field on the 17th, but it is expected that it will be difficult to start the game due to heavy rain from the morning. The rain forecast continues into the evening, and a large tarpaulin is placed on the ground, but the ground situation is not good because a large amount of rain continues to fall.

Hanwha announced Ryu Hyun-jin as its starting pitcher on the day. Hanwha is trying to produce four pitchers with 10 wins for the first time in the club's history, and Ryu Hyun-jin is the last puzzle. Ryu Hyun-jin is harvesting eight wins, so he needs two more wins until his 10th win. Considering Hanwha's remaining games, Ryu Hyun-jin has two or three more opportunities to take the mound. All of these are situations in which great work can be achieved only when multipliers are accumulated.




Prior to Ryu Hyun-jin, three players, Cody Ponce (17 wins), Ryan Weiss (16 wins), and Moon Dong-ju (11 wins), won 10 games first. For the seventh time in Hanwha's history, it produced three or more pitchers with 10 wins in a season, and it was the first time in 18 years since Ryu Hyun-jin (17 wins), Jung Min-cheol (12 wins) and Cedric Bowness (11 wins) in 2007.

If Ryu Hyun-jin achieves 10 wins, Hanwha can also set a record for the first time in KBO history. The LG Twins have produced four starting pitchers with 10 wins, including Yoni Chirinos (12 wins), Lim Chan-kyu (11 wins), Son Joo-young (10 wins) and Song Seung-ki (10 wins), and if Hanwha joins, it can write a new history in the KBO, which will produce 10 wins and 4 starters from two clubs in a season.

In other words, the history of Hanwha and KBO is on Ryu Hyun-jin's shoulders.




If Ryu Hyun-jin is canceled on the day due to rain, chances are high that he will continue his challenge on the 18th.

Hanwha had to play eight consecutive games of hell as the game was reorganized on Monday, the 15th, which was a rest day, because the match against the Kiwoom Heroes in Daejeon was canceled due to rain on the 12th. From the match against Kiwoom in Daejeon on the 13th to the match against Suwon KT Wiz on the 20th, he had to run nonstop.

If the match against KIA in Gwangju on the 17th is canceled due to rain, it will have to play a double header with KIA in Gwangju on the 18th. Although it is the same situation as Jammosa, Hanwha's bullpen, which is quite tired in the process of continuing the fierce competition for the lead, seems to be able to buy time to catch its breath for a while.
