Prior to the match against KT Wiz in Gwangju on the 17th, KIA made the starting lineup with Lee Chang-jin (left fielder), Park Chan-ho (field fielder), Patrick Wizdom (third baseman), Choi Hyung-woo (designated hitter), Oh Sun-woo (right fielder), Hwang Dae-in (first baseman), Kim Ho-ryeong (middle fielder), Kim Tae-gun (possession) and Kim Kyu-sung (second baseman).
Kim Sun-bin and Yoon Do-hyun both left due to injuries and became Muju Gongsan. Kim Kyu-sung got a chance to start the second baseman on that day. Kim Kyu-sung showed off his good batting performance by recording six hits in eight at-bats (0.750 batting average) in the last three games. In the match against the Changwon NC Dinos on the 15th, which was the previous game, he played as a substitute and scored two hits and one point in two at-bats.
Left fielder Lee Chang-jin, who returned from injury, was recently fixed as the first hitter, and he is using Hwang Dae-in as the first baseman by turning Oh Sun-woo to right field. Choi Won-joon is on the bench for two consecutive games.
The starting pitcher is Kim Do-hyun. Kim Do-hyun was 2-3 with 74 ⅓ innings and a 3.15 ERA in 13 games this year. He was the most stable and steady among KIA's domestic starters, but his winning luck did not follow. Since he won his second game of the season against the Lotte Giants in Gwangju on the 13th of last month, he has only lost one game in five games.
KT's starting pitcher is Enmanuel Heyesus. Heyesus went 5-4 with 74 innings and a 2.43 ERA in 13 games. As an opponent of KIA, he met once in Suwon on the 30th of last month and pitched seven scoreless innings to become a winning pitcher.
