The Nexen Heroes throttled the LG Twins 12-2 on Friday night to secure the organization's first-ever berth in the Korean Series. Nexen won the semi-final series three games to one to advance to the best of seven championship series, where they will face the Samsung Lions.
By clinching the series in four games, the Heroes avoided using their top starting pitcher Andy Van Hekken. Van Hekken, who won 20 games during the regular season, should be available when the Korean Series commences on Tuesday, November 4 in Daegu.
Samsung and Nexen were the top two teams in the KBO during the regular season. Samsung was 78 and 47 with three ties. Nexen finished the regular season 78 and 48 with two ties.
