Hanwha Eagles' manager Choi Won-ho, who left only one loss in the record of the most-season losing streak in professional baseball, said he did not place any orders to the players.

Before playing a home game against Doosan Bears at Eagle Park in Daejeon Hanwha Life Insurance, Choi Won-ho said, "It would be a burden to even tell the players to be comfortable."

Hanwha won 18 consecutive losses the day before, and made a tie to the record of the most successful streak in professional baseball set by Sammi Superstars in 1985.

Adding 1 loss will break the record of the most losing streak.

Things are not good.

Hanwha's existing starting resource, Kim Yi-Hwan, is lowered to the 2nd Army, and a new right-hander pitcher Han Seung-Joo starts.

Director Choi Won-ho said, “Han Seung-ju has good control and is a pitcher who throws the slider as the main weapon.” He said, “I have a hole in the starting rotation.

When asked if he had no plans to pull foreign pitcher Warwick Surfold into a bullpen to prevent his record of losing streak, he said, "We need to start tomorrow. We still have a lot of games left."
