The Doosan Bears, who lost two consecutive games in the opening series and one win and two losses in three away games in Suwon, returned to the 'Bangbang'.

Doosan manager Lee Seung-yeop said ahead of the home opener "Today is important," he said, vowing to win.

Doosan will play against the Samsung Lions at Jamsil Stadium at 6 p.m. on the 28th for the opening game of the '2025 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League'.

Doosan's rotation will go around once, and first starter Col Irvin will start. Irvin struggled somewhat against SSG Landers in the opener with four runs in five innings.

Prior to the game, head coach Lee Seung-yeop said, `We lost all of the games because we had a foreign one-two punch at the opening of the last away game. Today, I have to wear my home uniform with a new mind and a new feeling and play a good game as I show my home fans for the first time" he said with determination.

As for Irvin "Last time, Irvin was a little nervous and said he wanted to do well. I've been on the mound once, so I believe that if you pitch with a calm mind today, you can play well enough."

In the game between Doosan and KT at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 26th, Doosan manager Lee Seung-yeop takes the mound in the bottom of the ninth inning with two outs and a runner on the first base to comfort Kim Taek-yeon. Suwon = Reporter's wook@sportschosun.com/2025.03.26/

Irvin faced Samsung in an exhibition game on the 10th. At that time, he struck out four in three innings and pitched no runs.

Coach Lee Seung-yeop said, `Urbin is a player who has very good control. It was also very good at the Daegu exhibition game last time. I hope you will get good results because we are doing it in a big ballpark today" expressed faith.

Doosan made up the starting lineup with Kim Min-seok (left fielder), Kim Jae-hwan (designated hitter), Kang Seung-ho (third baseman), Cave (right fielder), Yang Eui-ji (catcher), Yang Seok-hwan (first baseman), Park Joon-young (eligible fielder), Lee Yoo-chan (second baseman), and Jung Soo-bin (middle fielder).

Lee Yoo-chan entered the second base instead of Oh Myung-jin.

Manager Lee Seung-yeop put a little weight on defense. It's a very big game today, the opening game at home, so I might be a little nervous in the case of Myung-jin. As a result of the coaching spart meeting, it was decided that it would be helpful for Yoo Chan to go out first", he explained.
