'Fire Baseball' is once again set to unfold a heated battleground.
In the 9th episode of the Studio C1 baseball variety show 'Fire Baseball', which will be released on the 30th, a timeless showdown between the ace Lee Dae-eun of the Fire Fighters and the ace of Incheon High will be depicted.
Incheon High will feature Lee Tae-yang, who is mentioned as a first-round pick in the 2026 KBO Rookie Draft, as their starting pitcher. After showcasing his sharp pitching in relief during the first game, he is expected to demonstrate an even more developed performance in this second game, taking the mound as a starter and showing growth in timing and count battles. Attention is focused on whether the Fire Fighters can continue their winning streak against the impenetrable mound of 'Rising Sun' Lee Tae-yang.
During the broadcast, caster Jung Yong-gum and commentator Kim Sun-woo express their frustrations. They collectively claim that the Fire Fighters have become "arrogant." Jeong Ui-yun, who is in the spotlight, also becomes a target for their criticism, raising curiosity about the reasons behind it.
Lee Dae-eun, who steps onto the mound with a cough, shows his fighting spirit despite a cold. Caster Jung Yong-gum expresses concern for Lee Dae-eun's condition, saying, "He looked really weak before the game." The Fire Fighters' seniors are said to focus more on defense to support Lee Dae-eun. In particular, Jeong Geun-woo, who received a rigorous training session from coach Kim Seong-geun the day before, promises solid defense with confidence.
To relieve Lee Dae-eun's burden, the Fire Fighters also put in effort on offense. The 'reliable fourth hitter' Lee Dae-ho and the strongest fifth hitter Jeong Ui-yun, who ranks first in all batting metrics for the Fire Fighters, step up one after another, raising expectations on the field. Park Yong-taek, watching their hits from the dugout, remarks, "I've never seen anyone hit like that," piquing curiosity about the flow of the game.
The Incheon High pitcher on the mound faces the Fire Fighters' lineup with confident pitching. The Fire Fighters' dugout echoes with comments like "The pitcher is in the flow." Commentator Kim Sun-woo even praises his abilities, saying, "He reminds me of Yoo Hee-kwan when he was young." Curiosity intensifies about whether the powerful Fire Fighters lineup can deliver a heavy hit.
'Fire Baseball' will be released on the official Studio C1 YouTube channel on the 30th at 8 PM.
