They are overwhelming their opponents with a solid mound and a powerful batting lineup. The fighting spirit of retired players who have forgotten their age and the energetic performance of young players continue to draw support from fans towards the Fighters.
This match is particularly significant as it is the first live match held at the Fighters' exclusive stadium, 'Fighters Park'. Additionally, the first Fire Live, which includes real-time commentary from commentators and casters, is also expected to take place, raising even more anticipation. The Fire Live, which allows fans to feel the excitement of the match, will be broadcast live exclusively on the Studio C1 website.
The pride match between the Fire Fighters and Yushin High School, two teams vying for the top spot, will take place on the 21st at 5 PM at Daejeon Fighters Park.
