It smells like a sellout weekend matchup! But is the weather disturbing…Possible cancellation of rain ↑

It smells like sold out, and the weather can be a distraction. The rainy season begins ahead of the super-jackpot matchup.

Competition for KBO League rankings, which has entered the middle of the season, is on the rise. As of the 12th, the LG Twins ranked first and the Hanwha Eagles ranked second were 0.5 games apart. From the third-place Lotte Giants to the eighth-place NC Dinos, they are only five games apart. Most middle-ranked teams are within one or two games of each other. If you lose two consecutive games, your ranking will fall, and if you win two to three consecutive games, you can skip several steps.

This weekend's matchup is also a huge hit. First of all, the first and second-place teams will face off in Daejeon. The LG Twins and Hanwha Eagles will play three consecutive games with the lead position. The team that catches the Winning Series is the first place here. The key is whether Hanwha turns the tables and rises to No. 1 again, or whether LG maintains its No. 1 position.

The game between Doosan and KIA, which was scheduled to be held at Gwangju KIA Champions Field on the 16th, was canceled due to rain. It rained on the ground and a tarpaulin was installed. Gwangju = Reporter's book@sportschosun.com/2025.05.16/
The match between Lotte Giants and SSG Landers in Incheon is also interesting. Lotte won the away series in Suwon with two wins and one loss, capturing both dramatic games. The difference between Lotte in third place and SSG in sixth place is only 2.5 games.

The fourth-place Samsung Lions and the fifth-place KT Wiz will face off in Daegu, while the seventh-place KIA Tigers and the eighth-place NC Dinos will meet in Changwon. The ninth-ranked Doosan Bears and the 10th-ranked Kiwoom Heroes will face off against each other in Jamsil. Coincidentally, a confrontation between teams involved in the ranking fight is predicted, and the point to watch is also exciting.

But the weather has the potential to become a distraction. The Korea Meteorological Administration said that the rain will continue in Chungcheong and southern regions on the 13th due to the influence of the rainy season that began on Jeju on the 12th, and the rain will expand nationwide from the night of the 13th. In addition, rain will continue nationwide until the 15th due to the indirect effects of typhoons.

The game between LG and Hanwha, which was scheduled to be held at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 1st, was canceled due to rain. An announcement about the cancellation of the rain appears on the electronic display. Daejeon = Reporter's wook@sportschosun.com/2025.05.01/
The game will not be held at Gocheok Sky Dome, the only dome stadium in Korea among the three consecutive games this weekend, and the Daejeon LG-Hanwha match, Daegu KT-Samsung match, and Changwon KIA-NC match are likely to be affected by rain on the 13th. On the 14th, the following day, the match between Lotte-SSG in Incheon and Kiwoom-Doosan in Jamsil is also expected to rain. In the worst case, even the cancellation of the entire game must be considered.

On the weekend, another big match is held, and this weekend, when consecutive sold-out matches are likely to be held. The more games canceled by rain, the more disappointing the KBO League will be, and the more frustrating baseball fans who have been waiting for Intuition will be.
