It's a farewell match for Coen Win, but the 18K strongest Ponce, so I'll meet Ponce as the lineup I won yesterday.

In the home game against the Hanwha Eagles in Jamsil on the 28th, LG formed the same starting lineup as the day before Moon Sung-joo (right wing), Kim Hyun-soo (left wing), Austin (first baseman), Moon Bo-kyung (designated hitter), Park Dong-won (captor), Koo Bon-hyuk (fielders), Shin Min-jae (second baseman), Park Hae-min (center fielder), and Lee Young-bin (third baseman).
LG, which won 2-1 with ace Lim Chan-kyu's one-run pitching in seven innings the previous day and widened the gap by 3.5 games with Hanwha, will meet with the best pitcher in the KBO League for the first time.
The starting pitcher for Hanwha on the day is ace Cody Ponce, who has eight wins and no losses and a 1.63 ERA. He is considered the best pitcher this season in the KBO League, which is running toward triple crown, as he is tied for first in multiple wins and first in ERA with 97 strikeouts.
Ponce's hit rate is only 177, or 44 hits in 249 times at bat. He was a little weak against left-handed hitters with 159 (20 hits in 126 at-bats) to right-handed hitters and 195 to left-handed hitters (24 hits in 123 at-bats). He is a fastball pitcher with an average speed of more than 150 kilometers, and he mixes changeups, curves, and sliders to keep batters stuck.
It's Coen Win who met a too strong opponent in his last appearance.
Coen Win, who came as a substitute for Eliaser Hernandez, went 1-1 with a 6.63 ERA in four appearances.
On the 4th, when he took his first mound, he took his first win with a quality start of five hits and three runs in six innings against SSG, and this was the best time.
On the second day, he allowed seven hits (two homers) and four runs in five innings against Samsung on the 11th. He stopped it well with one run until the fifth inning, but as soon as the start of the sixth inning with a 3-1 lead, he was beaten by Koo Ja-wook with a double, a two-run shot by Kim Young-woong, and a solo shot by Diaz, which turned the tables 3-4. Since then, the team has turned around again, and Coen Win's defeat has disappeared.
In the third mound, it became difficult as the number of pitches increased. Coen Win, who blocked three hits and no runs until the fourth inning of the KT Wiz match on the 17th, was substituted in the fifth inning with two walks and two walks. In four ⅔ innings, he allowed three hits, four walks, two strikeouts, and one run.
In the match against the Lotte Giants in Busan on the 22nd, he was nervous from the beginning and couldn't stand Lotte's bat. Koen Win, who did not give a walk, created a rare scene of giving a walk to the first and second batters in the bottom of the first inning, gave up two runs with a hit, and continued to be in crisis in the third and fourth ⅓, eventually becoming the first losing pitcher with eight hits, four walks and seven runs (six earned) in three innings.
Hernandez will make a full recovery and take the mound against Samsung on the 30th, saying goodbye to Coen Win. Coen Win hopes to come back to the KBO League next season in the Asian quarter. If you make a good impression in your face-off with Ponce, the possibility of an opportunity will certainly increase.
