📡 Doosan opened the series with a 4-2 win, narrowing the gap in the season head-to-head. The visitors will send out a strong starter for Game 2: Kwak Bin, who boasts a 2.64 ERA and has consistently delivered solid outings against LG. The hosts counter with Carlos Carrasco, who is yet to establish his numbers in this KBO campaign. The prediction leans toward LG’s head-to-head advantage and their deeper lineup.
Head-to-Head
📊 LG have claimed victory in seven of their last ten meetings with Doosan. Despite a 2-4 loss narrowing the season series to 7-3, the hosts still hold a convincing edge. Doosan managed to limit LG to just two runs, capitalizing on strong pitching. For the home side, improving their efficiency with runners on base will be crucial.

⚾ Starting Pitchers
Carlos Carrasco gets the nod for LG. According to his MyKBO Stats profile, he enters with a 0-0 record and a 0.00 ERA, and he has yet to face Doosan in his career. With no sample size from this season, Carrasco remains the game’s biggest wild card. LG will be counting on the veteran right-hander to keep the score close until they can turn things over to the bullpen.
Kwak Bin takes the mound for Doosan. He’s 9-4 this year with a 2.64 ERA, and against LG he boasts a 1.69 ERA, though he hasn’t factored into any decisions. Kwak Bin’s proven numbers give the visitors a clear edge on the mound. For LG, the key will be working his pitch count up and preventing him from cruising deep into the game.
⭐ Editor’s Prediction
Kwak Bin stands out as the strongest confirmed starter in this matchup and has the tools to once again keep LG in check. Doosan also boast a more reliable team ERA and took the first game of the series. However, the home side have compelling arguments: they lead the head-to-head 7-3 over the last ten meetings, have been more effective at the plate, and have hit 15 more home runs. Carrasco enters without KBO stats, but his start gives LG a chance to flip the script after a disappointing opener. Even against Kwak Bin, the hosts are capable of getting runners on base, and Doosan’s bullpen doesn’t always protect slim leads. If things stay level into the late innings, LG’s offense at home should make the difference. The pick here is an LG win.
