Before the match against the Doosan Bears in Jamsil on the 21st, LG called up Son Joo-young to the first team and canceled Choi Chae-heung.
Son Joo-young received so much trust from LG manager Yeom Kyung-yeop that he started as the second starter this season. However, he has shown ups and downs and posted 6 wins, 5 losses and an ERA of 4.30 in 13 games this season. After becoming a losing pitcher with 10 hits and five runs (four earned) in four ⅔ innings against Jamsil SSG on the 10th, he was removed from the first-team entry the next day for rest and returned to the first team in 10 days.
He doesn't start right away, but he's waiting for the bullpen. As scheduled, he will start an away game against KT Wiz in Suwon on the 25th. Before that, he plans to take the mound as an intermediate game to regain his sense of practice.
LG, which failed to regain the top spot by playing a 1-2 loosing series despite posting all foreign pitchers such as Elijah Hernandez and Yoni Chirinos in the three consecutive games during the week against NC, seeks to turn around by starting Hernandez again, who was left early due to a headshot exit on the 17th.
Hernandez became a losing pitcher with one hit and one run in one inning when he was sent off by Park Gun-woo in the top of the second inning against NC on the 17th. At that time, the number of pitches was 22, so he was expected to start against Doosan on the 20th, and he will take the mound on the 21st due to the cancellation of the rain.
On this day, LG's starting lineup consisted of Shin Min-jae (second baseman), Kim Hyun-soo (left fielder), Austin (first baseman), Moon Bo-kyung (third baseman), Moon Sung-joo (right fielder), Park Dong-won (possession), Koo Bon-hyuk (fielders), Lee Joo-heon (possession), and Park Hae-min (middle fielder). Moon Sung-joo was put in the fifth batter, and Park Dong-won came down to the sixth. Lee Joo-heon played as the starting catcher.
On the same day, Doosan's ace Kwak Bin will start. He has one win, two losses and an earned run average of 4.02 in three games this season. He displayed his best pitching by allowing six hits (one homer) and two runs in seven ⅔ innings against Kiwoom on Saturday, the previous day, raising expectations for his first win of this season.
