The LG Twins, where new foreign pitcher Anders Tolhurst will make his debut, will be the best lineup.

LG set up a starting lineup with Shin Min-jae (2nd baseman), Moon Sung-joo (right wing), Austin (1st baseman), Moon Bo-kyung (designated hitter), Kim Hyun-soo (left wing), Oh Ji-hwan (striker), Park Dong-won (catcher), Koo Bon-hyuk (third baseman), and Park Hae-min (middle fielder).

The opponent's starter was Oh Won-seok, who was left-handed, so Koo Bon-hyuk, a right-handed hitter, was put forward. A lineup that also helps strengthen defense for Tolhurst.

LG broke up with Eliaser Hernandez, who had only 4 wins and 4 losses with a 4.23 ERA in 14 games, and welcomed new pitcher Tolhurst. Tolhurst, who had been throwing as a starting pitcher in the minor leagues, came to Korea and immediately prepared to start the first team, and threw 29 pitches in bullpen pitching on the 9th to complete the game against KT on the 12th. Since it was thrown sporadically in the U.S. on July 31 (Korea time), it can be seen as skipping selection once.

On this day, the number of pitches will be limited to about 80.

For LG, in order to help Tolhurst pitch comfortably, he should target Oh Won-seok in the beginning.

Oh Won-seok was born anew after moving to KT this year and succeeded in his first 10 wins. He is 10-5 with a 3.28 ERA in 18 games this year.

However, Oh Won-seok, who was weak against LG in his previous team, SSG, was not very good against LG even when he came to KT. In three games, he has the highest ERA with 1-1 losses and an 8.03 ERA.

Oh Won-seok, who had five hits (one homer) and five walks, seven strikeouts and five runs in four ⅓ innings in Suwon on April 2, became a winning pitcher with eight hits, one walk, five strikeouts and two runs (one earned) in five innings in Jamsil on May 17, but he became a losing pitcher with nine hits, three walks and five runs in three innings in Jamsil on July 29, 15 days before the game.

After taking the mound against LG, he will leave the first team for treatment due to his poor back condition and start again on the same day.
