As the fourth live broadcast, this game is the first live broadcast to take place at the Bulkkot Fighters' home stadium, Daejeon Fighters Park, and it is also the first matchup against Dong-Eui Institute of Science and Technology, a "rising power in college baseball," so viewers' attention is more focused than ever. We looked at viewing points that make this live broadcast even more interesting.
▲ first live broadcast at the Daejeon home stadium!
The special baseball live broadcast started with the Inha University game in June, followed by the Dong-A University game in July and the Yeoncheon Miracle game in August, with all three games held at Seoul Gocheok Sky Dome. This fourth live broadcast is the first home game held in the cool autumn, and it is expected to stir viewers' hearts with a new atmosphere. In particular, fans' "wish for victory" is growing stronger, hoping the team will wash away the pain of the previous loss at their home stadium. In fact, the Bulkkot Fighters recently achieved a thrilling victory in their home opener against the independent club Hwaseong Coryo. Although the game against Dong-Eui Institute of Science and Technology is the first live broadcast held at home and may bring more tension, given the presence of seasoned competitors, attention is focused on whether they can add a precious win in the live broadcast.
▲ historic first matchup with Dong-Eui Institute of Science and Technology, a "rising power in college baseball"!
The Bulkkot Fighters have never faced Dong-Eui Institute of Science and Technology, this opponent, so curiosity is growing. The Dong-Eui Institute of Science and Technology baseball team was the first baseball team founded by a vocational college in the Busan area, and it is led by manager Yeom Jong-seok, who was a key figure in the Lotte Giants' 1992 Korean Series championship. This year the team rose rapidly as a "rising power in college baseball," finishing first in Group D of the KUSF College Baseball U-League and advancing to the champions' tournament. Manager Yeom Jong-seok, the "commander" who grew Dong-Eui Institute of Science and Technology into a baseball powerhouse in a short time, proved his formidable drive and determination by leading the team to the champions' tournament in their first appearance since the club's founding. The team under his leadership is known for a strong pitching staff and well-organized defense, making it a tough opponent for the Bulkkot Fighters. All eyes are on what strategy manager Kim Seong-geun, the "baseball god," will employ in his first game against Dong-Eui Institute of Science and Technology.
▲ unlimited emotion beyond win or loss predicted! a stage for fall baseball festivities!
The Bulkkot Fighters lost 4-3 after giving up a game-changing grand slam in the top of the eighth inning against the Yeoncheon Miracle. After two consecutive live broadcast wins followed by a painful loss, one live-broadcast win at home is desperately needed for the Bulkkot Fighters. Dong-Eui Institute of Science and Technology likewise has strong motivation to win in its first matchup with the Bulkkot Fighters. Therefore, this game is expected to be a contest for team honor and pride rather than a simple friendly match, keeping tension until the end. For the Bulkkot Fighters, the painful loss has strengthened team organization and cohesion, raising expectations for victory. In fact, in their recent first game at the home stadium, the Bulkkot Fighters started Lee Dae-eun as the starter and won, and the lineup saw strong performances from Park Yong-taek, Lee Taek-geun and Jung Sung-hoon.
This game pits managers Kim Seong-geun and Yeom Jong-seok, who have different leadership styles, against each other in pursuit of "victory," and the process itself is expected to provide great emotion to baseball fans. In addition, on-site interviews, expert commentary analysis, interesting behind-the-scenes stories and the home stadium's passionate cheering will allow viewers to vividly enjoy a "stage for fall baseball festivities" from home.
