The SSG team, which succeeded in counterattacking with the harmony of hitting and pitching, challenges for consecutive wins with Oh Won-seok (4 wins, 3 losses, 4.70 ERA). Oh Won-seok, who won the game with a strong pitching performance of 2 runs in 6 innings during the away game against Kiwoom on the 31st, needs to reduce the variability of his pitches. On May 14, he won a game against Samsung with 6 scoreless innings at home, and is also strong in day games, which could be an advantage. The SSG batting lineup, which scored 7 runs including Choi Jeong’s two-run home run while completely defeating Reyes in the previous day's game, quickly overcame the slump seen in the first game, which is encouraging. Especially noteworthy is the lower batting order effectively fulfilling their roles. It would be quite difficult to utilize Moon Seung-won, who conceded 1 run over 3 innings from the bullpen, in this game.
Samsung, which had its winning streak ended due to poor hitting and pitching, sends Lee Ho-seong (1 win, 3 losses, 7.34 ERA) as the starter for the rubber game. Lee Ho-seong, who appeared as a reliever and conceded 1 run in 1.2 innings in a home game against Hanwha on the 31st, is not showing improvement even in the bullpen. This is his first start against SSG this season, but his batting average allowed during day games is .407, which is a nightmare. Samsung's batting lineup, which only scored 2 runs against Drew Anderson in the previous game, failed to tackle fastballs, leading directly to their defeat. The good momentum being suddenly cut off could negatively affect this game. Samsung's bullpen, which allowed 2 runs over 3 innings, will have to be satisfied with giving the winning setups some rest.
SSG's batting lineup has come alive. It seems like they can continue that momentum into this game as well. Especially since Lee Ho-seong is very weak in day games, which is also an advantage. On the other hand, Oh Won-seok has an advantage against Samsung, and his pitching following Anderson will be quite tricky. SSG, having a better starting pitcher, is closer to victory.
Predicted score: 7-4, SSG victory.
Match Winner: SSG victory.
Handicap: SSG victory.
Under/Over: Under
