The Doosan Bears, who have not won in the last three consecutive games, are seeking a rebound in their home opener. He also made slight changes to the starting lineup.
Doosan will play the 2026 Shinhan SOL KBO League regular season home game against the Hanwha Eagles at 6:30 p.m. on the 3rd at Jamsil Baseball Stadium in Seoul.
Doosan moved to Daegu after finishing the opening two consecutive games in Changwon with one win and one loss on the 28th and 29th of last month. And he came to Seoul with one draw and two losses in three consecutive games during the week with the Samsung Lions.
Doosan is currently in eighth place alone with one win, one draw and three losses. Hanwha tied for fifth with two wins and three losses.
On this day, Doosan will try to win with Chris Flexen at the forefront. In response, Hanwha will also start Wilkel Hernandez, who started the opening game.
Doosan started in the order of Park Chan-ho (striker), Jung Soo-bin (center fielder), Daz Cameron (right fielder), Yang Eui-ji (catcher), Ahn Jae-seok (third baseman), Yang Seok-hwan (first baseman), Oh Myung-jin (designated hitter), Park Joon-soon (second baseman), and Kim Min-seok (right fielder).
It is notable that Kang Seung-ho is out as the starting second baseman and Park Joon-soon is deployed. In addition, Kim Min-seok, who was absent the previous day (2nd), entered the 9th batting order. Kim Min-seok hit a surprise three-run shot to make it 6-6 to 9-6 against Changwon NC on the 29th of last month. It was his first home run of the season and his fifth career home run in his "fourth year as a professional" since his debut in 2023.
