With an off-day in the KBO today, let’s dive into team records and some strong player performances along with taking a look at the odds for Tuesday’s games.
STANDINGS AND PRIME PLAYER PERFORMANCES
NC Dinos (23-6)
The Dinos scored 35 total runs in their three-game sweep over the Hanwha Eagles this past weekend. First baseman Jin-sung Kang went 8-for-13 at the plate in the series, including two home runs and three doubles, and now leads KBO in batting average at .468.
Doosan Bears (19-10)
Bears designated hitter Jose Miguel Fernandez is no longer atop the KBO leaderboard in batting average, however he’s still No. 1 in hits (50).
LG Twins (18-11)
There hasn’t been a more feared power hitter than Roberto Ramos. The Twins first baseman leads KBO in home runs (12), and ranks in the top 5 in batting average, RBIs, total bases and slugging percentage.
Kiwoom Heroes (17-13)
While Dinos ace Chang-mo Koo has been the best pitcher in KBO, Heroes starting pitcher Eric Jokisch isn’t that far behind. Jokisch is 5-0 with a 1.49 ERA and 0.94 WHIP, and has struck out 30 batters in 36 1/3 innings.
Kia Tigers (15-15)
Preston Tucker racked up 50 RBIs in 95 games for the Tigers last season, and he’s going to likely shatter that number this season. Tucker leads KBO with 31 RBIs, which he’s collected in 30 games.
Lotte Giants (14-15)
Samsung Lions (13-17)
KT Wiz (11-18)
SK Wyverns (10-19)
Hanwha Eagles (7-23)
