The LG Twins and KT Wiz Suwon meet Thursday morning in South Korea KBO baseball action at the Jamsil Baseball Stadium.
The LG Twins look for a win after winning 22 of their last 33 games. The LG Twins pitching staff has allowed five or more runs in 31 of their last 55 games. In their last effort, Kim Hyun-soo and Lee Hyung-jong combined for three hits and three RBI while Lee Min-ho allowed five runs and seven hits in six innings of work. The LG Twins have lost 30 of their last 66 games overall. Kim Yun-sik gets the ball tonight for the LG Twins.
The KT Wiz Suwon look to stay hot after winning seven of their last nine games. The KT Wiz Suwon offense has produced four or more runs in 16 of their last 24 games. In their last effort, Kang Baek-ho and Bae Jeong-dae combined for three hits and three RBI while Bae Je-seong allowed five runs and six hits in five innings of work. The KT Wiz Suwon have won 21 of their last 32 games overall. Kim Min-soo gets the ball tonight for the KT Wiz Suwon.
The KT Wiz Suwon have won five of the last eight meetings against the LG Twins, but the last 10 meetings have been split down the middle. Five of the last eight meetings between the Wiz Suwon and Twins have produced double-digit run totals.
Kim Yun-sik has a 7.20 ERA and 1.66 WHIP this season through 35 innings, and he’s allowed three or more earned runs in six of his last eight starts. Kim Min-soo has a 6.18 ERA and 1.82 WHIP this season through 62.2 innings, and he’s allowed three or more earned runs in five of his last six starts. Both of these pitchers are in full struggle mode, and we’ve seen double-digit run totals in five of the last eight meetings between the Twins and Wiz Suwon. There’s only one direction for me to go in this matchup.
The total is quite large in this game, but it’s for a reason. Give me the over 11 runs.
