Who will be the winner of the automn Jamsil-dong Derby, which was concluded after seven years? The shooter of the first-round pick is heavy.
The Doosan Bears and lg Twins announced Chris Flexen and Lee Min-ho as Cole Hamels in the first leg of the 2020 Shinhan Bank SOL KBO semi-playoff (two-game winning system) at 6:30 pm on the 4th at Jamsil-dong Stadium in Seoul.
Doosan, who was dramatically third in the final season of the regular season, pulled out a second-choice flexen card, not Ace Raul Alcantara. Alcantara is resting for eight innings at the Jamsil-dong Kiwoom on the 30th of last month, which was the third plAce final. “Alkantara has done all of his best in the final game, and there is no problem with Flexen throwing well,” said Kim Tae-hyung, who can play after a break on the 4th.
Flexen has left 21 Kyonggi 8-4 with an Earned run average 3.01 this season. In mid-July, he was away for about a month and a half due to a sudden foot fracture, but he returned in September and became the team's third-ranked first-class player. Flexen's October record is 5Kyonggi 4 wins Earned run average 0.85; he is also named as the KBO's monthly MVP candidate in October.
He made his debut against lg in the season, starting May 7 and winning the game with three runs and three runs in six innings.
lg counters this, and rookie Lee Min-ho is on the pitch. Tyler Wilson was also injured in the first game of the wild card game, and Tyler Wilson was relieved of the injury and was given a first-round start to the rookie.
Lee Min-ho, who won the first plAce in the 2020 lg nomination, finished his debut season with 20Kyonggi 4 wins and 4 losses Earned run average 3.69. He proved his competitiveness in the first year by selecting and saving with a heavy ball and a movement of balls that are not new.
This year against Doosan, he went 4Kyonggi (selected 2Kyonggi) and was strong with 1 loss and Earned run average 2.57 without victory. He started on June 21 and July 26, and each scored two runs in five innings.
As the semi-playoff was shortened from the existing five-game three-game winning system to the three-game two-game winning system due to Corona 19, the importance of winning the first game became even greater. Attention is focusing on whether Doosan, who has an objective advantage in the starting matchup, will overpower the baseline or whether lg will make a difference with the rookie's surprise.
