The professional baseball LG Twins will attempt to achieve five consecutive victories.

LG will face the Kiwoom Heroes in the second matchup of the season on the 9th at Seoul's Gocheok Sky Dome. In the previous day's game, LG's early batting lineup exploded while Kiwoom fell apart due to errors, leading to an early determination of victory and defeat. LG won decisively, 13-1.

On this day, LG will have Hong Chang-ki (right fielder), Shin Min-jae (second baseman), Austin (designated hitter), Moon Bo-kyung (third baseman), Park Dong-won (catcher), Song Chan-eui (left fielder), Moon Jeong-bin (first baseman), Koo Bon-hyeok (shortstop), and Choi Won-young (center fielder) against Kiwoom's left-handed starter Rosenberg.

Left-handed batters Kim Hyun-soo, Oh Ji-hwan, and Park Hae-min have been excluded from the starting lineup.

Rosenberg, who is playing in the KBO League for the first time this year, has a record of 1 win and 2 losses with an earned run average of 6.19 over 3 games. On March 28, he recorded his first win in the KBO League debut, pitching 7 innings with 4 hits, 9 strikeouts, and 2 earned runs against SSG. In the game against Doosan on the 3rd, he became the losing pitcher after allowing 4 earned runs over 6 innings.

With a record of 11 wins and 1 loss, LG is running alone in first place, leading in batting average (.295) and OPS (.851). The LG lineup, featuring many left-handed starters such as Hong Chang-ki, Shin Min-jae, Moon Bo-kyung, Kim Hyun-soo, Oh Ji-hwan, Park Hae-min, and Moon Seong-ju, has recorded a batting average of .279 and an OPS of .809 against left-handed pitchers, which is not bad.

LG's starting pitcher is Elieser Hernandez. He has a record of 1 win and 1 loss with an earned run average of 9.39 over 2 games this season.

Hernandez, who recorded a victory in his first appearance of the season against Hanwha, pitching 7 innings with 1 hit and no runs, collapsed against KT on the 2nd, allowing 8 earned runs with 5 hits and 3 walks over ⅔ inning.

Meanwhile, LG adjusted its first-team roster on this day. Moon Seong-ju returned to the first team, while Ham Chang-geon was demoted to the second team. Recently treated for a boil, Moon recorded 5 hits in 5 at-bats in an exhibition game against Hanil University the previous day.
