KBO will introduce a check swing video review from August 19 after a month of stabilization tests on the 22nd' is officially announced.

The original plan was from 2026. This year, it was tested on a trial basis in the Futures League. However, complaints have accumulated considerably in the first team. KBO has advanced the timing of its introduction by reflecting the voice of the field.




Coach Kim Kyung-moon also gave a very positive evaluation. Coach Kim Kyung-moon met with reporters ahead of the Doosan match in Jamsil on the day and said, `I think it went well. Checkswinging is not good enough even if it is profitable."

KBO completed the installation of a check swing video reading system in all KBO League stadiums before the start of the second half to improve the accuracy and fairness of the judgment. As it is the first system to be introduced in the professional league, it was agreed that a sufficient test period was needed to stabilize the system of each stadium. Therefore, after about a month of all-field testing, we decided to apply it from August 19th.'"

Manager Kim Kyung-moon said, `In fact, it can be okay normally, but when it is directly related to the victory or defeat of the game, it becomes very sensitive. So it's good to be fair to each other, he actively agreed with the KBO's decision.




The criteria for judging are the same as those currently being applied by the Futures League. When the batter swings the bat (swing) with the intention of hitting the ball thrown by the pitcher, it is judged as a swing strike when the angle of the bat (judged based on the end of the bat) moves in the direction of the pitcher rather than the baseline parallel to the front of the home plate.

Reading opportunities are two per team apart from traditional video reading opportunities. Retain opportunity in case of reversal. In extra time, one more chance to read will be added in addition to the remaining opportunities. Retain opportunity in case of reversal. The offensive team can only apply if it is judged to swing and the defensive team to be judged to be North Wing.
