In a thrilling postseason baseball game, the LG Twins secured their wild card spot in the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) by defeating the Doosan Bears 4-1 at Jamsil Baseball Stadium in Seoul on Wednesday. Austin Dean's two-run home run in the bottom of the first inning proved decisive, giving the Twins the lead they needed to advance to the next round.
Starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco made his KBO postseason debut, pitching six innings of one-run ball and striking out three batters. Despite a strong showing from Doosan's Gwak Been, who struck out 10 in six innings, the Twins managed to eke out one run in the seventh before ultimately securing the victory in the bottom of the eighth.
With this win, the Twins set their sights on facing the third-seeded Kia Tigers in the next best-of-five series, which begins in the southwestern city of Gwangju on Saturday.
