The LG Twins, who reduced their magic number to 3, excluded Moon Bo-kyung, who had been the fourth batter, from the starting line on the first day of the three consecutive games against the Hanwha Eagles.

LG's starting lineup consists of Hong Chang-ki (designated hitter), Shin Min-jae (second baseman), Austin (first baseman), Kim Hyun-soo (left fielder), Moon Sung-joo (right fielder), Koo Bon-hyuk (third baseman), Oh Ji-hwan (striker), Park Dong-won (catcher), and Park Hae-min (middle fielder) in an away game against Hanwha at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 26th.

Moon Bo-kyung, who has been in a severe slump of 154 percent in September, took the fifth batter in the match against NC on the 24th and went down to sixth against Lotte on the 25th. However, as he showed sluggish performance with no hits in four at-bats in No. 6, he eventually excluded him from the starting line-up in important games against Hanwha, and used Koo Bon-hyuk, who had shown a good batting sense, as third baseman.




The central lineup of Moon Sung-joo, Austin, and Kim Hyun-soo, who showed good offensive connection the previous day, was changed to Austin, Kim Hyun-soo, and Moon Sung-joo. It can be seen as a choice considering that the opponent's starter is left-handed Ryu Hyun-jin,

Hanwha starter Ryu Hyun-jin is pitching hard in a game between KIA and Hanwha at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 2nd. Daejeon = Reporter's book@sportschosun.com/2025.09.02/
LG won thanks to Son Joo-young's seven scoreless innings and the explosion of the lineup, and Hanwha lost 0-7 to Doosan, reducing the magic number 2 to 3 a day. The game gap between the first and second places also increased to 3.5, reaching a pretty advantageous position to win the regular league.

If LG wins on this day, the magic number will be reduced to 1, and if Hanwha wins, it will be reduced to 2.5 games.




For LG, it is of course good to confirm the championship quickly, so Chirinos is aiming for victory on the first day of taking the mound.

Chirinos showed good performance as the first starter with 13 wins, 4 losses and a 3.29 ERA this season. He had one win, no loss, and an ERA of 1.38 in two games against Hanwha. Two runs in 13 innings.

Hanwha starter Ryu Hyun-jin will try to win 10 games on the day with 9 wins, 7 losses and a 3.31 ERA this season. He was strong against LG. He had one win, no loss, and an ERA of 0.95 in three games. He had 15 hits in 19 innings, but pitched two outstanding runs.




Ryu Hyun-jin and Chirinos faced off as starters in Daejeon on April 30.

At that time, Chirinos had a winning requirement with four hits and one run in six innings, but the victory was blown away by the reversal, and Ryu Hyun-jin allowed six hits and two runs in seven innings and became a winning pitcher with a come-from-behind victory.
