The Doosan Bears are facing a difficult Chuseok holiday week. This is why we need to shake off the pursuit of fifth-ranked SSG Landers while also preventing the celebration of the 'Jamsil Rival' championship.

Doosan, which finished with three wins and two losses last week, firmly maintained its fourth place in the league with 67 wins, one draw and 59 losses this season. It was a week when he succeeded in entering the stable zone of autumn baseball by widening the gap between the fifth-ranked SSG Landers three games difference and the sixth-ranked KIA Tigers four games difference. It was regrettable to lose last Sunday, but it is still 2.5 games behind third-place NC.

It is encouraging that Yang Eui-ji's batting sense, the main master of the game, has revived. Yang Eui-ji, who slowed down a bit after a side injury in August, swung hard last week with a batting average of 0.428 9 hits in 21 at-bats/two home runs/four RBIs/three runs/one walk in five games.

Yang Eui-ji has achieved a career-high 1,000 RBIs along with a hit streak in the last 13 consecutive games. Yang Eui-ji reached the 1,000-run mark in his career for the 23rd time in the KBO League with the RBI achieved in the game on the 22nd. It is the third record for Doosan after Kim Dong-joo 1,097 RBIs and Hong Sung-heun 1,120 RBIs.

On the mound, Lee Young-ha's pitch shone the most. Lee Young-ha has shown the best pitching flow this season with three wins, an average of 0.737 strikeouts and three walks in the last 10 games. Lee Young-ha is in an atmosphere that can be a big help as a must-win team that can play multiple innings at the end of the season and in the postseason.

Doosan will play its first game of the week against Munhak SSG on Sept. 26. With Kim Dong-joo climbing on the starting mound, the opposing starting pitcher should play a formidable starting matchup with Elias.

Doosan will play the Munhak SSG match as a doubleheader on the 27th. Four years ago, at the end of the 2019 season, a decisive doubleheader confrontation was created. With Doosan solidifying fourth place, it will be decided whether it will prepare a foothold to rise to third place or leave room for pursuit in fifth-place SSG.

During the Chuseok holiday week, Doosan will play three consecutive home games against LG, the "Jamsil Rival" and leader who has established a league dominance system. Doosan was overwhelmingly inferior to LG this season with two wins and nine losses. Depending on the performance of teams competing for the championship this weekend, there is a possibility that LG will erase all of its magic numbers for the regular season. If Doosan allows LG to celebrate the regular-season championship in its weekend home game, there will be no more humiliating moment. 스포츠토토

Doosan should perform more than the Winning Series in its showdown with LG this weekend, not only to look at a higher ranking in the fifth round fight, but also to keep its last pride in the "Jamsil Rivalry." Doosan's fate is expected to be on the line this week as to how to fill the void in the starting lineup of Kwak Bin, who was transferred to the Asian Games national team.
