Nippert returns to find manager Kim Seong-keun in 'Fire Baseball.'
On the 7th, the 10th episode of the studio C1 baseball entertainment program 'Fire Baseball' features a head-to-head showdown between the unbeaten Fire Fighters and Seoul Seongnam High School, who won the 2025 79th Golden Lion Cup National High School Baseball Championship.
On this day, a familiar face, Nippert, appears in the Fighters' locker room. After a long absence from games, Nippert shares a word with Shin Jae-young, who enters afterward, bringing laughter. Other team members welcome Nippert with applause, and Director General Jang Si-won also notes that he feels 'more solid' upon the hero's return. However, after greeting manager Kim Seong-keun, Nippert expresses his apologies and delivers unexpected news.
Meanwhile, the Fighters receive news related to 'Fire Baseball' and the scheduled game dates from Director General Jang Si-won. They are surprised yet unable to hide their excitement. Curiosity mounts regarding the blueprint of 'Fire Baseball' that has thrilled the Fighters.
Ahead of the match, during the strategy analysis, Lee Taek-geun expresses concern, saying, 'I hope they don't hold back' because of Seoul Seongnam High School's 'crazy fighting' and 'tight teamwork.' In fact, the students from Seoul Seongnam High School keenly observe the Fighters' batting and defensive drills even before the game, kindling their determination. They even raise the tension with an interview comment, saying, 'As a championship team, we will ensure they leave on time.'
Additionally, Kim Seon-woo, a commentator, provides testimony proving that Seoul Seongnam High School is a strong team. While also serving as a pitching coach for the Fighters, he encounters a player to whom he previously allowed home runs. Commentator Kim Seon-woo recalls that moment with incredible memory and is taken aback by Seongnam High School's 'hard baseball,' triggering curiosity about the contest between the two teams.
At the eagerly awaited lineup announcement time, a peculiar three-way battle begins over the starting pitcher spot between the 'unshakeable one-two punch' Yoo Hee-kwan, Lee Dae-eun, and 'healthy(?)' Shin Jae-young, with keen glances exchanged beneath the laughter. Who will be 'Kim Seong-keun's pick' to guard the Fighters' mound?
The first game of the Fire Fighters against Seoul Seongnam High School, which has heightened tension to its maximum, will be available on the official YouTube channel of studio C1 at 8 p.m. on the 7th (Monday).
