Best KBO Predictions Today (With Reasoning), September 9
There are important things to know before betting on the KBO. Luckily, if you don’t have time to do your own research, you can discover how we selected our KBO baseball picks each day.
LG Twins vs. Kiwoom Hereoes: Under 7.5 (-113)
Tuesday’s showdown between the LG Twins and Kiwoom Heroes promises a low‑scoring affair highlighted by a classic pitching duel that works in our favor. William Tolhurst has been brilliant since joining the Twins on August 12, going four starts and 25 innings with a microscopic 0.36 ERA and a 0.96 WHIP.
His last outing versus these same Heroes on August 30 saw seven shutout innings, while allowing just three hits. That kind of dominance sets the stage for another stifling performance.
Across the mound, Raul Alcantara brings a similarly elite level of control. With a 3.38 ERA and 1.15 WHIP on the season, he has allowed two or fewer earned runs in four straight and five of his last six starts.

And against the Twins specifically, he boasts a 2.66 ERA over three outings. Combine that with a Heroes lineup mired at the bottom of the KBO with a .241 batting average and just 472 RBIs, and the case for the under grows stronger.
Expect runs to be few and far between in this one. The under is the sharp‑looking bet at -113 odds.
Hanwha Eagles vs. Lotte Giants: Hanwha Eagles (-150)
The Hanwha Eagles are set up for another win as they face the Lotte Giants, and Ryan Weiss is the biggest reason why. The right-hander has been locked in all year with a 2.95 ERA and 1.04 WHIP across 26 outings.

Against the Giants, he’s been dominant, going 4-0 with a razor-sharp 1.29 ERA. Lotte has yet to figure him out, and there’s little reason to expect that to change here.
On the flip side, Park Se-woong hasn’t matched that level. He holds a 4.84 ERA on the season and has struggled mightily of late, giving up 17 earned runs over his last five starts. Even in two previous matchups with the Eagles this year, he’s posted a 4.38 ERA, showing no real edge against this lineup.
With the better arm on the mound and all the momentum, Hanwha is the right side. Take the Eagles on the moneyline with confidence.
