- Hanwha Eagles lost 1-6 to the KT Wiz in Suwon, extending their losing streak to seven games.
- The team finished second last season but now sits only one game ahead of SSG and could fall as low as ninth place.
The Hanwha Eagles’ seven-game losing streak has put last season’s runner-up in danger of tumbling to ninth place. Hanwha lost 1-6 to the KT Wiz at Suwon KT Wiz Park on Sept. 1 in the teams’ 12th KBO League meeting of the season.
The defeat came two days after Hanwha suffered a 7-10 comeback loss to the NC Dinos in Daejeon, its sixth consecutive defeat. The team now stands just one game ahead of the SSG Landers.
The headline questioned whether Hanwha’s replacement could fill the void left by Ponce, while also highlighting what it described as a lack of intimidation and another baffling error.
