LG Twins vs Samsung Lions 4/24/24 Pick: Samsung Lions
The Lions are putting the better and fresher starter on the mound in this game here. That will definitely help the Lions out to a point, but the Lions are also putting a better rounded team on the field as well. Look for the game to be a back and forth battle, but I like the Lions to come out on top at the end of this game here.
