It's a game that can't be conceded. They put the best pitchers on each other's plate. In addition, legend Oh Seung-hwan's retirement tour is scheduled.

The Samsung Lions and the LG Twins will meet in Jamsil on the 20th. It is the final match of this season between the two teams. LG is ahead with nine wins and six losses.

LG is in first place with 83 wins, 3 draws and 50 losses and has reduced the winning magic number to six, but the second-place Hanwha Eagles are still chasing by three games, so one win is urgent.




Samsung is as urgent as anyone. Samsung, which is in fourth place with 68 wins, 2 draws and 65 losses, is 1.5 games behind KT Wiz and Lotte Giants, which are tied for fifth.

Both LG and Samsung put their most trusted pitchers on the mound.

LG will be started by Anders Tolhurst. According to the rotation, it is Lim Chan-kyu's turn, but he will give Lim Chan-kyu enough rest to prepare for the last match against Hanwha next week and raise the current pace of Tolhurst.




Tolhurst is coming as a substitute for Hernandez and has a good performance of 5-1 with a 1.54 ERA in six games.

As soon as he came to the KBO League, he won four consecutive games and allowed only two runs (one earned run) in 25 innings, but he was also worried about becoming a losing pitcher with five runs in four innings against Kiwoom on the 9th.

However, he relieved everyone by showing his old self again with two hits, one walk and five strikeouts in six innings against Jamsil KIA on the 14th. It's his first game against Samsung.

In Samsung, Won Tae-in will come out. He has 11 wins and 4 losses with a 3.26 ERA in 25 games this season. Ariel Furado can be said to be Samsung's best ace, but Furado recorded only four losses without winning against LG.

Won Tae-in was strong against LG. He had two wins, no losses, and a 2.50 ERA in three games. He became a winning pitcher with five hits, one walk and one run in six innings at Jamsil Game (6-3 win) on April 17, and another winning pitcher with five hits, one walk, four strikeouts and two runs in five innings at Jamsil Game (4-2 win) on May 31. On August 2, he allowed five hits (two home runs), no four outs, six strikeouts, and two runs in seven innings in Daegu (2-3 loss), but withdrew without a win or loss.

It was better in Jamsil. He had three wins, no losses and an ERA of 2.05 in four games against LG and Doosan.

If LG wins, it will be able to reduce the magic number to five and have a three-day break to prepare for five consecutive away games between Changwon, Ulsan and Daejeon. Since Samsung is scheduled to play against KT, a five-team rival, on the 21st, the next day, if it wins the strong team, LG, its confidence can have a positive effect on the future game.

In the Jamsil game between LG and Samsung this season, Samsung rather performed well with 4 wins and 2 losses. In Daegu, LG had 7 wins and 2 losses and laughed more at each other on the road.
