Oller, currently pitching for the Kia Tigers, will face the LG Twins in Game 2 of the best-of-five first round. Oller expressed his excitement about the upcoming match, noting that it will be a grand spectacle with numerous banners and team flags. Despite the large crowd, he intends to focus on his performance and hopes to deliver a strong pitching effort. Oller, who joined the Tigers in 2025 after their championship win, played a pivotal role in their improved performance this season. He finished second in the league with a 3.13 ERA and fourth with 180 strikeouts. Oller has faced the Twins multiple times, including three matches in 2025, and acknowledges the challenge of facing them again. He expressed confidence in his ability to adapt and stay creative during the game. Oller also highlighted his friendship with Twins' slugger Austin Dean, whom he has trained with in the offseason, and looked forward to facing him in the postseason.",
