Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 13th, when the game between the LG Twins and the KT Wiz is scheduled. Although it rained a lot, the rain became more frequent in the afternoon, and the rain finally stopped.
After the game the previous day, the large tarpaulin covering the infield is still there, so if the rain does not continue as it is, it is expected to be able to play. But the forecast says it will continue to rain, so we'll have to wait and see.
The previous day's game was a complete victory for LG. LG was the debut of new foreign pitcher Anders Tolhurst, who was supposed to throw about 80 pitches, but played seven innings with 77 pitches. He clearly beat KT hitters with fast fastballs, fork balls, cutters, and curves of up to 153 kilometers. He gave up only two hits in seven innings and recorded seven strikeouts with no four outs, and cut his first tape well.
LG's batters also responded by exploding to Tolhurst's good pitching. LG, which scored the first run in the top of the fifth inning with Koo Bon-hyuk's hit and Park Hae-min's right-handed hit, led 3-0 with a straight Shin Min-jae's triple to right-center and Moon Sung-joo's infield grounder. In the top of the seventh inning, Koo Bon-hyuk's hit-o Park Hae-min's sacrifice bunt and Moon Sung-joo's infield grounder on the first and third bases with an opponent's error added one more point in the top of the eighth inning with Oh Ji-hwan's timely hit, Park Hae-min's sacrifice fly and Shin Min-jae's timely hit to run to 7-0. KT got two runs in the bottom of the eighth inning with Oh Yoon-seok's triple to the middle of the eighth inning, but LG had Park Dong-won's two-run double and Park Kwan-woo's two-run double in the top of the ninth inning to widen the gap to 11-2.
LG ranks first with 66 wins, 2 draws, and 42 losses, while KT ranks sixth with 51 wins, 4 draws, and 50 losses without a difference from fifth-place KIA.

Song Seung-ki, who joined the rotation of the first team for the first time this season, is LG's 2025 hit product. In 20 games, he recorded 9 wins, 5 losses and a 3.15 ERA, making his name as the rookie of the year. In the game against KT, he made his first appearance in Jamsil on July 31 and recorded five hits, one walk, and five strikeouts in five innings. At that time, the team won 18-0 and Song Seung-ki became the winning pitcher and took his ninth win.
At that time, he had his first showdown with Ahn Hyun-min, KT's strong candidate for the Rookie of the Year award, and Ahn Hyun-min hit a right-handed hit in the final third match against a ground ball in front of the third base and a ground ball in front of the shortstop.
Bae Je-sung, who was discharged from Sangmu in June, has pitched in seven games (four starts) since then, recording 2 wins, 2 losses and an ERA of 4.76. It will be his first appearance this year against LG.
