LG Twins vs Doosan Bears 4/14/24 Pick: LG Twins
I have to say that I am sticking with the Twins again here. Granted, the Twins did lose against a bullpen starter, but the Bears are such a weak hitting team that it is very hard to back them against a great hitting team. I see the pitching being a mute point in this game as well for the Bears who are outmatched by a huge margin in this game as well.
