⚾ Starting Pitchers
Jeremy Beasley gets the nod for Lotte. He’s 4-4 with a 4.50 ERA this season, and against LG he’s 0-1 with a 2.08 ERA. While his numbers against LG are respectable, the loss shows it wasn’t quite enough to turn the tide. Beasley has the tools to keep things tight, but LG are patient at the plate and excel at driving up a starter’s pitch count as the game progresses.
Chan Hyeong Sik will take the mound for LG. His season stats stand at 6-2 with a 3.69 ERA, but he’s struggled against Lotte with a 1-0 record and a concerning 9.00 ERA. His track record versus the hosts is a red flag, giving Lotte another opportunity to exploit his pitching. Still, Chan Hyeong Sik’s overall campaign has been stronger, and LG’s deeper lineup and reliable bullpen could help mitigate any early trouble he faces.
⭐ Editor’s Prediction
Lotte have already shown they can put up runs against LG, and Chan Hyun Sik’s 9.00 ERA in this matchup gives the hosts some hope. Still, backing the visitors looks like the more logical play. LG lead the head-to-head 7-4, boast a deeper roster, handle tight finishes better, and are coming off a hard-fought 8-7 victory. Beazley may keep things close, but his 4.50 ERA overall leaves LG with plenty of chances to apply pressure, especially in the middle innings. The visitors have been more consistent over the long haul and look better equipped for a game that could be decided late. The main pick here is an LG win.
