Doosan Bears' Henry Ramos was listed in the lineup again, but Yang Eui-ji and Heo Kyung-min were excluded.
Doosan made up the starting lineup of Ramos (designated hitter), Jeon Min-jae (third baseman), Kang Seung-ho (second baseman), Kim Jae-hwan (left fielder), Yang Seok-hwan (first baseman), Park Joon-young (striker), Kim Ki-yeon (poster), Cho Soo-haeng (right fielder), and Jung Soo-bin (middle fielder) in the away game against the LG Twins at Jamsil Stadium on the 21st.
Yang Eui-ji, who is unable to run due to a knee contusion, and Heo Kyung-min, who has uncomfortable back, are still in a bad condition.
Doosan manager Lee Seung-yeop said, "(Both of them say that it is difficult to play today as well,' and added, "'Both wills are possible as a pinch hitter.'" Ramos, who was excluded from the selection the previous day due to his elbow discomfort, was included in the selection.
Yang Eui-ji and Heo Kyung-min do not know yet whether they will play next week. `I think I'll have to take another day off tomorrow and see the condition on Tuesday,' Lee said with a dark expression.
Meanwhile, LG made the starting lineup with Hong Chang-ki (right wing), Oh Ji-hwan (striker), Austin (first baseman), Moon Bo-kyung (third baseman), Kim Hyun-soo (designated hitter), Park Dong-won (captor), Shin Min-jae (second baseman), Park Hae-min (middle fielder), and Ahn Ik-hoon (left fielder).
As in the previous day, Oh Ji-hwan will go as No. 2. Doosan starter Choi Won-joon is a sidearm, so Ahn Ik-hoon will play instead of Kim Bum-seok.
LG had a blast the previous day by scoring six runs in two innings against Doosan's new foreign pitcher Jordan Balazovic, with Austin hitting a two-run shot and Moon Bo-kyung hitting a solo shot. However, the rain in the top of the third inning made it a no-game, and all records were invalidated.
Choi Won-joon has never pitched against LG this season, but he started on September 29 last year and pitched well with four hits, two walks, one strikeout and two runs in six ⅔ innings.
LG starter Son Joo-young will already play against Doosan for the fourth time. In his first appearance on April 14, he recorded his first loss of the season with five hits (one home run), one walk, three strikeouts and five runs (two earned) in four innings, and on May 4, he also recorded a quality start of nine hits (one home run), one walk, two strikeouts and three runs in six innings, but his team lost 2-3, becoming another losing pitcher.
On May 31, the third meeting, he became a winning pitcher with a 6-3 victory, allowing three hits, two walks, four strikeouts and one run in five ⅓ innings.
It is a comprehensive performance with 1-2 losses and an ERA of 3.52 against Doosan.
