Rain was predicted throughout the afternoon. Raindrops are also falling on the scene.

Game 2 of the weekend series between the Lotte Giants and SSG Landers will be held at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 9th.

Busan is hot and humid with a small difference between the lowest temperature (25 degrees Celsius) and the highest temperature (27 degrees Celsius).




The management team of Sajik Stadium took out and covered the entire infield early on. Under the tarpaulin, several fans are installed to protect the lawn.

The weather at the site, where raindrops were scattered, quickly turned into rain. Lotte players came out in groups and started warming up early by playing catch, but it is hard to say that the weather is suitable for pitchers to warm up. Some of the pitchers who came out to the dugout to check the weather have entered the clubhouse again.

According to baseball officials, baseball players, especially pitchers, prefer to go outside when warming up despite the heavy rain. Since it is a sport with a lot of indoor training, such as batting training, bullpen pitching, and stretching, it is often out if outdoor training is possible.

However, the rain is quite thick and getting stronger, so it does not seem like the weather suitable for outdoor training.

According to the Korea Meteorological Administration, the probability of precipitation in the afternoon in Busan is 80%, and the hourly rain forecast is also predicted from 1 p.m. to the dawn of the next day.

Lotte's Park Se-woong and SSG's Kim Gun-woo were expected to be the starting pitchers on the day.




Both teams had bullpen consumption the day before. As Choi Min-joon failed to fill the fifth inning of SSG, a series of must-win groups led by Park Si-hoo, Kim Min-eui, and Noh Kyung-eun Cho Byung-hyun came out. Like Choi Min-joon the previous day, Kim Gun-woo is also a substitute starter for Mitch White, who was out of the rotation due to pain from Yang Eui-ji's hit. According to the rain announcement on this day, Choi Min-joon was lowered early the previous day and all the must-win groups were dispatched.

Lotte's Na Kyun-an filled the sixth inning, but Jung Chul-won, Yoon Sung-bin and Park Jin were responsible for one inning each in the seventh to ninth innings. As they are ahead of the starting match, they may want to continue the game on the day, but even if it is canceled, Gamboa can play in the first game against Hanwha instead of the substitute starter who was originally Davison's place.
