Lachlan Wells (Kium) will face Ryu Hyun-jin in his third appearance.

Wells will start against the Hanwha Eagles at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 5th.

Kiwoom announced its contract with Wells on the 11th of last month. Kenny Rosenberg, who started this season together, was diagnosed with femoral impingement syndrome. The raised bone of the left femoral head caused friction, causing pain. It is expected to take more than six weeks to recover. In the end, Wells, who was playing in the Australian League, was hired temporarily.




Wells started for the Adelaide Giants in the Australian League during the 2024-2025 season with a 5-1 record with a 3.17 ERA. In the 2023-2024 season, he won the Australian League MVP.

When the Kiwoom team recruited Wells, it played most of its career as a starting pitcher and uses various breaking balls such as sliders, curves, and changeups in addition to fastballs. He introduced his strength in stable control and innings.

In the match against KIA on the 6th and 25th, which was his first appearance, he allowed three hits, no four outs, four strikeouts, and one run in three innings. As the lineup did not explode, he became a losing pitcher.

In the match against Samsung four days later, he allowed five hits, one walk, two strikeouts and two runs in five innings, and did not even have a winning pitcher. The maximum speed was about 150 kilometers, and the game was solved by mixing changeups and slider curves.

Ryu Hyun-jin is the starting pitcher for Hanwha on the 5th. He has 5 wins and 4 losses with a 3.36 ERA in 14 games this season.

Kiwoom manager Hong Won-ki said of Wells' pitching ahead of the game on the 5th, `The first impression of the first game during the build-up process was positive about some pitching tempo and ball control on the mound. That continued in the second episode"He did a great job in the Australian League, preparing for the opponent's batting lineup and designing pitching. Such a process is showing up well, so it is positive."




On this day, Kiwoom organized the starting lineup in the order of Song Sung-moon (third baseman), Lim Ji-yeol (left fielder), Lee Ju-hyung (designated hitter), Choi Joo-hwan (first baseman), Stone Garrett (right fielder), Park Soo-jong (middle fielder), Eo Jun-seo (striker), Kim Gun-hee (poster), and Jeon Tae-hyun (second baseman).
