Hanwha Eagles, desperate for one win, were wary of anxiety. Veteran hitter Son Ah-seop stressed that it is more important to maintain composure at times like this.

Ahead of Game 3 of the Korean Series against the LG Twins in the 2025 KBO League postseason at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 29th, Son Ah-seop expressed confidence, saying, `It's worth trying at home.' Son Heung-min is a 'winning contractor' that Hanwha acquired by giving up the third round of rookie nomination rights and 300 million won in cash to NC at the trade deadline.

The Hanwha Eagles finished the regular season in second place this year. In the playoffs, they defeated Samsung with 3 wins and 2 losses after a bloody battle in Game 5.




Although the power consumption was high, as Moon Dong-joo and Ryu Hyun-jin started in Game 2 of the first game of the Korean Series, it was expected that 'Baek Jung-se' would be the starting pitcher.

When the lid was opened, LG unilaterally led the series. Hanwha made a series of wild pitching and walking errors in the first game. He lost helplessly by a score of two to eight. In the second game, they scored four points first in the top of the first inning and suffered a 5-13 upset loss. Hanwha must win at least two games from Game 3 to Game 5 in Daejeon to go to Game 6.

According to Son Ah-seop, Hanwha did not call a special team meeting.

Son Ah-seop said "If you think you're going to win by beating your victory, of course you will. It's right to do what you're doing. If you try to do something more, it can become more rigid. It can be more burdensome for juniors" he diagnosed.

Hanwha was strong in Daejeon. He was slightly inferior to LG this year with seven wins, one draw and eight losses, but he had an absolute advantage in Daejeon with five wins, one draw and one loss.

Son Ah-seop said, `Although I lost the second game of the first game, it's worth trying at home. That kind of atmosphere is formed. There was no separate meeting. It's the same, huh? X?"I rested well in the atmosphere of X."




Son Ah-seop said that he only needs to do well. Son Ah-seop said "Our batting lineup itself is good. In the end, I have to start. My role is important. Also, my ceremony and other things are bigger than other players. I think something will get better if I get on base a lot. I'm going to do a good job"I vowed.

Now it's more of a result than a process. You have to win first. Son Ah-seop said "It's important to win first. If I play more roles as a leadoff hitter, obviously the atmosphere gets brighter. Baseball isn't going as I thought, but I'm going to try harder"I'm determined.
