Doosan Bears and KT Wiz will play the second game of the postseason wild card game at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on the 3rd.
Doosan will have Choi Seung-yong as the starting pitcher, and KT will have Wes Benjamin as the starting pitcher.
Choi Seung-yong had two wins, no losses and a 6.00 ERA with one hold in 12 games.
Choi Seung-yong was only able to pitch for the first team at the end of July due to elbow fatigue fracture ahead of this season. He entered the season as a relief pitcher, but started in mid-August as a starter. He showed some ups and downs, but he began to play his role perfectly as a starter at the end of the season. He pitched quality start (3 earned runs in more than 6 innings) against KIA Tigers on September 19 and allowed 2 runs in 5 innings against NC Dinos on the 24th, his last appearance of the season.
Against KT, he started on August 18 and allowed five hits, one walk, one strikeout, and three runs in one ⅔ inning.
In KT, Benjamin will start. Benjamin, who has 11 wins, 8 losses and an ERA of 4.63 in 28 games this season, was in a bad shape at the end of the season, contrary to Choi Seung-yong. On the 22nd of last month, he collapsed with five runs in five ⅔ innings against SSG, and on the 28th against Kiwoom, he was shaken with six runs (four earned runs) in three ⅓ innings.
He lost one game and had an 8.18 ERA in three games against Doosan.
