Doosan Bears vs SSG Landers 4/3/24 Pick: SSG Landers
In this game we are going to ride the SSG Landers in this game again. The Landers club has ended up playing great and like we thought the over definitely hit in the last game. We think the over will hit again in this game here, but we like overall pick going to the Landers club. The Landers team has the better pitching group, but also the better overall hitting. Still, you could play either the over or SSG as we think both of these are going to hit.
