Jung Woo-joo (Hanwha Eagles) fired a signal of his poor escape.<\/p>\n

Hanwha, led by head coach Kim Kyung-moon, lost 1-7 to manager Lee Sung-yong’s SSG Landers in an away game of the 2026 professional baseball KBO League regular season at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on the 25th. As a result, Hanwha, which has lost two consecutive games, has lost 58 games (49 wins and 3 draws).<\/p>\n

The result was defeat, but not without income. In particular, Jung Woo-joo gave comfort to Hanwha by scoring no runs for the first time in a long time.<\/p>\n

Hanwha Jung Woo-joo is pitching hard as a starter. Kiwoom, which is at the bottom of the league with 14 wins and 24 losses, is trying to win two consecutive games against Hanwha.

It was a good start. Jung Woo-joo, who took the mound in the bottom of the eighth inning when Hanwha was trailing 1-7, led Oh Tae-gon to a groundout to shortstop. Jung Joon-jae then received a hit to left-center, but Park Sung-han was induced to fly to right field. After that, Guillermo Herredia finished his mission on the day by cooking with a strikeout.<\/p>\n

The final result was one hit and one strikeout in one inning. The total number of pitches was 20.<\/p>\n

Jung Woo-joo, who was nominated by Hanwha as the second overall in the first round in 2025, is a right-handed pitcher called the present and future of the eagle corps. Even though it was his debut season last year, he recorded three wins and three holds with a 2.85 ERA in 51 games (53.2 innings). At the end of the regular season, he had two opportunities to start and showed off his presence in autumn baseball.<\/p>\n

Although he is young, he has a lot of experience in playing for the national team. He played with the national flag at the 2025 NAVER K-BASEBALL SERIES (K-BASEBALL SERIES) held late last year. At the 2026 World Baseball Classic (WBC) in March, he helped advance to the quarterfinals for the first time in 17 years as a member of the Korean national baseball team.<\/p>\n

\"On \uc0ac\uc9c4 \ud655\ub300 On the afternoon of October 22, 2025, the fourth round of the “2025 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO Postseason” playoff between the Hanwha Eagles and the Samsung Lions was held at Daegu Samsung Lions Park.

But it wasn’t good this year. He played in 36 games (35.1 innings) in the first half, but suffered from severe sluggishness, with only one win, two losses and five holds with an ERA of 6.37. Eventually, he was excluded from the first-team entry after the match against the NC Dinos in Daejeon on July 7.<\/p>\n

Jung Woo-joo, who had a time to readjust in the Futures (second division) league, was called back by the first division on the 18th. In the match against the Daejeon KIA Tigers on the 19th, he allowed one strikeout and one strikeout in 0.2 innings.<\/p>\n

Since then, Jung Woo-joo has been shaken again in the match against KIA in Daejeon on the 20th (two hits, one homer, one strikeout, three runs) and the LG Twins in Daejeon on the 23rd (one inning, four hits, one strikeout, three strikeouts, and no run), but the good pitching provided an opportunity for the rebound.<\/p>\n

Hanwha, which is currently ranked 7th, is not very likely to play in the fall baseball. Nevertheless, Jung Woo-joo’s pitching on the day is meaningful. In the end, he is a player who should take charge of the Hanwha pitching staff in the future. Will Jung Woo-joo be able to grow further while shaking off the jinx of the second year by pitching well in the rest of the season’s schedule.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Kim Seo-hyun, who took the mound in the bottom of the seventh inning before Jung Woo-joo, also recorded one strikeout and no run in one inning.<\/p>\n
