LG Twins vs Doosan Bears 4/13/24 Pick: LG Twins
The game here should be tipped in favor of the Twins again. Doosan is putting a reliever on the mound to start the game and that is going to spell disaster for the Bears bullpen which is already tired. Throw in the face that in 3 games already Lee Young-ha has only managed to get 3 1/3 innings pitched and it is very easy to see the Twins getting some good offensive hitting going early in the game and reaching a tired bull pen.
