The Doosan Bears will play the wild-card deciding game without foreign pitcher Brandon Waddell (30).

KT WIZ veteran infielder Park Kyung-soo (40) was also dropped from the roster.

Doosan and KT will play the first game of the KBO 2024 wild card deciding series at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul on Feb. 2.

Following the conclusion of the fifth-place deciding game between KT and SSG Landers on Monday, Doosan and KT announced their rosters (30 players per team) for the wild card deciding game.

Doosan named 14 pitchers, three catchers, eight infielders, and five outfielders.

Doosan manager Lee Seung-yeop excluded Brandon, who hasn’t taken the mound since June 23 against the Samsung Lions due to a sore shoulder.

Brandon is still playing catch, so he is unable to pitch.

Another foreign pitcher, Jordan Balazovic, will be utilized as a middle reliever for the wild card game.

For now, Game 1 will be started by homegrown ace Kwak Bin.

Sidearm Park Chi-guk, who has been up and down this season, also failed to make the roster for the wild-card game.

Fellow pitcher Park Jung-soo was selected by manager Lee Seung-yeop.

Doosan used three catchers in the roster because their main catcher, Yang Ji-hyun, is suffering from collarbone pain.

Yang and Kim Ki-yeon, who have always been in the first team, were joined by Park Min-joon, a second-year college student who has appeared in five games this year.

KT will play for the wild card with 14 pitchers, two catchers, eight infielders, and six outfielders.

You won’t see the name of Park Kyung-soo, the 2021 Korean Series Most Valuable Player, who also appeared in the Korean Series last year.

Park has played just five games with the first team this year. He hasn’t played in a first-team game since April 2 against the KIA Tigers.

Park has expressed that he doesn’t want to take away spots from his juniors, easing the pressure on KT manager Lee Kang-chul.

KT will use foreign pitcher William Cuevas as the starting pitcher for the first game of the wild card deciding series.
