NC Dinos vs Doosan Bears 4/24/24 Pick: Over 9.5
This is a game that we like the Dinos to win. Granted, we liked the Dinos yesterday as well and the NC club has struggled against Doosan and are 1-2, the Dinos are putting the better hitting lineup on the field. Now, the one thing that can make the difference is the pitching from Gwak who has given up a ton of runs but not a lot of long balls. Look for the NC Dinos to win in this game here, but with both starters struggling on the year we like hte over to be the hitter here.
