A fierce 2-2 draw the day before. Sunday's game will determine the first place.If the previous day was an ace match, this time it's a young Young-gun match. It is a match between the Rookie of the Year and the first place winner of the Rookie of the Year award.

Hanwha Eagles Moon Dong-joo (22) and LG Twins Song Seung-ki (23) will face each other for the first place in Daejeon on the 15th. If Hanwha wins, it takes the first place by a half-game difference, and if LG wins, it keeps the first place by a 1.5-game difference.

Young pitchers aged 22 and 23 will play in this important game. Moon Dong-ju is a former Asian Games ace who won the 2023 Rookie of the Year award. Song Seung-ki is considered the No. 1 rookie this season. He is competing fiercely with Ahn Hyun-min of KT Wiz's 12 home runs for the Rookie of the Year award.




Moon Dong-ju started as the fifth starter and has 5 wins, 2 losses and an ERA of 3.68 in 10 games this season. On May 25, he showed sluggish performance of seven hits and six runs in four ⅔ against Lotte, then went down to the second division for a break and then re-fitted for 20 days. The return match is a game that determines the first place, so we have no choice but to throw it under pressure.

Song Seung-ki is LG's new left-handed ace. He has shown the best pace among the last five starters.

He is 7-3 with a 2.30 ERA in 12 games. He ranks third in ERA after Hanwha Cody Ponce (2.26) and SSG Landers Drew Anderson (2.28).




He has scored no runs in the last three consecutive games and 20 consecutive ⅔ innings.

Coincidentally, the two faced off in their first appearance this season. We met at Jamsil Gyeonggi on March 27.

At that time, Moon Dong-ju took the mound with a limit on the number of pitches due to his delayed appearance in practice last year due to shoulder pain. Nevertheless, LG hitters were completely blocked with one hit and no run in five innings with up to 158km of fastballs. At first, he scheduled about three innings, but he showed off his strong side to LG by blocking until the fifth inning with 61 pitches.




But the main character of the day was Song Seung-gi. It was the first game to start his debut after being selected as the fifth starter, and the crowd was full because it was sold out, but he showed good pitching. Based on a fastball of up to 150km, he silenced Hanwha's batters with one hit, one walk, five strikeouts and no runs in seven innings. Although he failed to become a winning pitcher in a 0-0 situation, it was clear that it was a shocking debut stage. Since then, Song Seung-ki has continued to play good pitching, and his status as a reliable starting pitcher on the team has risen.

I tried a failure at Daejeon's new stadium once. He took the mound in Daejeon on April 29 and became a losing pitcher with six hits (two home runs) and three runs in five innings. At that time, Hanwha's starter was Weiss.

Will the two, who failed to win in Jamsil, be able to determine the winner in Daejeon. Among Moon Dong-ju and Song Seung-ki, the smiling team is the first place.
