The starting lineup for Doosan's Lee Seung-yup was announced for the game on the 9th.
The Doosan Bears are preparing for the second match of the season against the Hanwha Eagles in the 2025 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League, which will be held at the Seoul Jamsil Stadium on the 9th.
Doosan has built a starting lineup against Hanwha's ace Kodi Ponce, featuring Jung Soo-bin (center field), Choo Jae-hyun (left field), Yang Eui-ji (catcher), Yang Seok-hwan (first base), Kang Seung-ho (third base), Kim Jae-hwan (designated hitter), Park Gye-beom (shortstop), Oh Myeong-jin (second base), and Jo Soo-haeng (right field).
The keystone combo changed from Park Jun-young (shortstop) and Park Gye-beom (second base) from the previous day to Park Gye-beom (shortstop) and Oh Myeong-jin (second base). Oh Myeong-jin, a former batting champion in the exhibition games, laid the groundwork for a walk-off victory with a single to right field after one out in the bottom of the 11th inning against Hanwha on the 8th.
The first-team roster has seen pitcher Kim Myung-shin dropped, with pitcher Choi Jong-in newly added. Kim Myung-shin struggled in the previous day's game against Hanwha, allowing three hits and one run in one-third of an inning.
Doosan's starting pitcher is ace Koh Aaron. His season record stands at 2 wins and no losses with a 2.50 earned run average over three games, having recently secured a victory with a solid performance: six innings, five hits, one walk, six strikeouts, and one run allowed against the Kiwoom Heroes at Jamsil on the 3rd. This is the first encounter with Hanwha, who have adjusted to their home field, Jamsil Stadium, with a 0.69 earned run average over two games, winning both.
Doosan reached .500 for the first time this season with a record of 7 wins and 7 losses after defeating Hanwha in a walk-off victory in the 11th inning the previous day, marking two consecutive wins. In contrast, last-place Hanwha now has a record of 4 wins and 10 losses, having fallen into a two-game losing streak.
