Hanwha, 'Before the Baseball Dream Park Era,' aims for more than autumn baseball... The odds of autumn baseball in the first year before home are 40%

Hanwha has used Daejeon Hanwha Life Eagles Park as its home stadium until this year, and will play home games at the 20,000-seat Baseball Dream Park from 2025.토토사이트

Hanwha Life Eagles Park was built as a baseball field at Hanbat Sports Complex in 1964 and was used as the home stadium of the OB Bears for three years with the opening of professional baseball in 1982. Later, when Binggrae Eagles was founded in 1986, it was used as a home stadium, and in 2011, it was renamed Daejeon Hanwha Life Eagles Park.

With the opening of a new home stadium in 2025, the Hanwha Eagles is strengthening its capacity to challenge for the championship. Ahead of the 2024 season, the team reinstated Ryu, who played in the U.S. Major League Baseball, and placed veteran manager Kim Kyung-moon at the helm.

In addition, after the 2024 season, free agent pitcher Um Sang-baek and infielder Shim Woo-joon were recruited at the same time, and the foreign player lineup was set up with existing pitcher Ryan Weiss, newly acquired pitcher Cody Ponce and batter Esteban Floral.

As pitchers Moon Dong-ju, Kim Seo-hyun, batters Chae Eun-sung and Noh Si-hwan, who have recently shown rapid growth, are in good shape, the baseball community predicts that they will be able to aim for more than "Autumn Baseball" next year from eighth place this year.

However, it is not easy to inflate expectations for the "long season" when looking at the performance of the teams that moved their home stadiums in the first year since 2000. There have been five cases of moving their home stadiums since 2000, and none of them have advanced to the Korean Series in the first year before.

He failed to play "Autumn Baseball" three times, and only made it to the wild card game and the semi-playoff once each. When it comes to the probability of fall baseball, it was 40 percent.

The SK Wyverns, the predecessor of SSG Landers, moved to Munhak Stadium in 2002 after leaving Soongui Baseball Stadium in Incheon. SK ranked sixth among the eight teams with 61 wins and 69 losses in 2002.

The KIA Tigers moved from Gwangju Mudeung Baseball Stadium to Gwangju Kia Champions Field since 2014, and finished the season eighth among nine teams with 54 wins and 74 losses in 2014.

In 2016, two teams introduced their new stadiums. The Nexen Heroes, the predecessor of the Kiwoom Heroes, left Mokdong Baseball Stadium and moved to Gocheok Sky Dome, while the Samsung Lions opened the Lions Park era at Daegu Civic Stadium.

The two teams had mixed feelings. Nexen ranked third with 77 wins, one draw and 66 losses, while Samsung ranked ninth with 65 wins, one draw and 78 losses. At that time, Nexen posted the best record in the season since debuting at a new home stadium since 2000. However, the team was eliminated in the semi-playoff after losing to the LG Twins by one win and three losses.

In 2019, the NC Dinos moved from Masan Baseball Stadium to Changwon NC Park, where they recorded 73 wins, 2 draws, and 69 losses, tucking into "Autumn Baseball" in fifth place. However, they failed to play "Autumn Baseball" in their new home stadium because they lost to LG 1-3 in the wild-card game.

Daejeon Baseball Dream Park has a unique structure that Hanwha players, the home team, have to get used to quickly, with the difference of 99m on the left pole and 95m on the right pole at home, and the difference of 8m on the right fence of the outfield and 2.4m on the left fence.

It is expected that Hanwha, which went to "Autumn Baseball" only once in 2018, will be able to announce the beginning of a "new era" in its new home turf between 2008 and this year.

The Hanwha Eagles will play its home opening game against the Kia Tigers on March 28, 2025. The All-Star Game in July 2025 will also be held at a new stadium in Daejeon.
