The Hanwha Eagles are on a tremendous downward fall at the bottom of the KBO league table. The Daejeon stars will be hosting NC Dinos in another three-game league series matchup tomorrow at the Daejeon Hanbat Baseball Stadium in Daejeon.

The Hanwha Eagles are definitely having their worst season from stats and form, currently having the worst play in the KBO league. The Eagles are sitting at the bottom of the league table with a 7-20 record in the regular season. Overall, the Eagles have won only seven matches and have recorded 20 defeats out of 27 league matches played so far. Also, the Hanwha Eagles have lost all their 11 previous games, holding the worst losing streak in the league. During their last time out, Hanwha Eagles lost all their previous series games to Kiwoom Heroes. Hanwha hasn't won any game since defeating the table toppers, NC Dinos, on May 22.

In their last series game, the Kiwoom Heroes secured a treble win over the struggling Eagles, who lost to the Heroes by 15-3 in the first match, followed by a 6-2 win. In their series finale game earlier today, the Hanwha Eagles scored a run in the 4th inning, and then, 2 runs in the 7th inning of the game but couldn't hold off the fourth-placed Heroes. The latter is on a three-match winning run.

On the other hand, the NC Dinos, moving closer to winning the league title, are sitting at the top of the league table with 20 wins and 6 losses out of 26 matches played. The Dinos are looking to secure a three-game series win over Hanwha Eagles to extend their lead above LG Twins and Doosan Bears. Although NC Dinos lost three out of their previous six games, still, they secured a two-game win out of their previous three-game series against SK Wyverns, who held the homers to secure a 2-8 lead in the series opener. However, NC Dinos was able to turn the table around and recorded an 8-6 lead over SK Wyverns and finally a 10-0 shutout win over the Wyverns earlier today.

The Hanwha Eagles' offense will be led by Lee Sung-yeol, who has two home-run hits with 13 Runs Batted In and Jared Hoying, who has three home run hits and 12 RBIs. The starters for the game are Mike Wright with an ERA of 3.21 for NC Dinos while Jang Shi-hwan will start for the Eagles. Jang has an ERA of 6.93.

In their last nine meetings, the Hanwha Eagles have recorded six wins with at least three runs scored. The Dinos is a superb offensive team with six players who have hit at least four home runs and have recorded an excellent pitching record so far this season.
