Rakuten Monkeys (18-16) at Fubon Guardians (15-17)
Saturday, September 12, 5:05 am EDT
Projected Starters
RHP Weng Wei-Chun (9-4, 6.02 ERA) vs. RHP Henry Sosa (9-4, 3.99 ERA)
Game Preview
The first-place Monkeys come in looking for their third straight win against a reeling Guardians squad that's dropped three consecutive games, including a 7-4 decision to Rakuten on Friday. However, Fubon appears to have the starting pitcher advantage in this contest, as Sosa has been very effective this season and is coming off back-to-back quality starts against the Brothers. He has had trouble against the Monkeys this season, though, so there is some risk attached to him in this matchup.
