Doosan Bears vs LG Twins 5/4/24 Pick: LG Twins
The pitcher the Bears are putting on the mound is not that good. The Bears are going to have a lot of issues in keeping the LG offense in check in this game here I think. That will make it easier for us to see the Twins picking up the win on the day, but also for the Bears to be able to get a strong win based off of the better offensive showing in this game here.
