Amid cloudy weather across the country, it is also raining heavily at Gwangju KIA Champions Field, where Doosan and KIA are scheduled to play on the 16th.
Rain poured into Gwangju, including Champions Field, from this afternoon. Since there was a rain forecast, a large tarpaulin was installed early on the ground.
According to the Korea Meteorological Administration, the Gwangju region is expected to receive more than 5mm of rain per hour and continue until late at night.
In the game between Lotte and KIA held at the Gwangju Championship the previous day, the rain began to thicken at the beginning of the first inning, and after Lotte's attack began at the top of the second inning, the referee declared a suspension of rain at around 6:50 p.m., putting on a large tarpaulin.
Meanwhile, KIA, which won the winning series by winning against Lotte the previous day, is aiming for a consecutive win against Doosan. Doosan is on the rise, sweeping three consecutive games during the week against Daejeon Hanwha.
KIA predicted rookie Hong Min-gyu from Doosan, who will get his nails done as the starting pitcher on the day.
