The game between the Lotte Giants and the KIA Tigers was temporarily suspended due to rain.

Lotte and KIA were playing Game 6 of the season between the teams '2025 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League' at Gwangju Kia Champions Field on the 15th. The game resumed at 7:09 p.m., 19 minutes after the suspension.

Lotte's starting players were Yoon Dong-hee (right wing), Ko Seung-min (second baseman), Victor Reyes (left wing), Jeon Joon-woo (designated hitter), Na Seung-yeop (first baseman), Son Ho-young (third baseman), Park Seung-wook (striker), Jang Doo-sung (middle fielder), and Information-geun (catcher).

The starting pitcher was Adam Oler.

Although it rained in and out of Gwangju even before the game, it did not interfere with the start of the game. Then, the rain began to thicken when KIA's attack began in the bottom of the first inning. Na Kyun-an treated Park Chan-ho, Oh Sun-woo, and Kim Do-young as a three-way offense, and the rain subsided and moved on to the top of the second inning.

However, Lotte's attack began in the top of the second inning and the rain began to thicken again. At 6:50 p.m., after Oler threw the first pitch ball to Park Seung-wook after two outs, the judges declared the suspension of rain. The ground was quickly covered with a large tarpaulin.




The interruption time was not very long. The rain died down in 10 minutes, and the umpires instructed them to walk the tarpaulin. I quickly finished the ground maintenance and continued the game.
