SUWON-SI, South Korea (Interstat) — The KT Wiz host the NC Dinos on Sunday evening at Suwon Baseball Stadium, aiming to complete a three-game series sweep. First pitch is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. under cloudy skies with temperatures near 72 degrees.

KT (27-18-1) enters the matchup riding a two-game winning streak against its division rival, having taken the first two games of the set by scores of 7-4 and 10-5. The Wiz hold a commanding 4-1 record in the season series and sit atop the KBO standings with a .600 winning percentage. NC (18-27-1) has lost four of its last five games.

Players to watch

NC right-hander Kim Jun-won is expected to work in relief. The 24-year-old has been effective in his last three appearances, tossing five scoreless innings while allowing three hits and striking out six. In Saturday’s loss, Kim threw three shutout innings, yielding one hit with two strikeouts. He has not been charged with an earned run since May 9.

KT left fielder Kim Min-hyuck has torched Dinos pitching. The veteran went 4 for 5 with two RBIs in Saturday’s win and is 7 for 9 with three RBIs in the series. Over his last 10 games, Kim is batting .371 (13 for 35) with six RBIs and has reached base safely in nine of those contests.

Interstat’s game simulator projects a 3-2 KT victory. The Wiz hold a 59.7 percent win probability in the ELO system.
