There are more cancellation games than during the rainy season. Will the fall baseball schedule be really good.

The first game of the doubleheader between SSG Landers and NC Dinos, which was scheduled to be held at Changwon NC Park on the 17th, was postponed due to rain. This game was organized as a doubleheader due to the rain delay on the 9th. However, just before the start of the first game, heavy rain poured down again, declaring a rainstorm. There is no preliminary date, so it will be organized later.

The game between the LG Twins and the KT Wiz, which was scheduled to be held at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on the same day, was also postponed due to rain. Suwon, where a large amount of rain poured in the afternoon, was also judged to be impossible to start normally. However, this game was organized as a doubleheader on the 18th because there was one more game left the next day.

Unpredictable weather is continuing due to climate change. It rather did not rain much during the rainy season in July. Fewer-than-expected games were canceled, and clear days continued, leading to the rest of the games.

However, more games are being canceled in September. A total of 11 rainy pure smoke came out in September alone, including the 17th. Some of the games were scheduled on the preliminary day and were organized as double headers, but five games are still unorganized.

KBO has already announced the remaining game schedule assuming September 30 as the last day of the regular season. This means that the five games that have not been scheduled will eventually have to be played after October 1. On top of that, there is another rain forecast around the Seoul metropolitan area this weekend, so there is a possibility of more cancellation games. In that case, the entire first week of October may have to be spent on organizing canceled games.

Naturally, the start of the postseason is also postponed. If all regular season schedules are completed by September 30, fall baseball can start as soon as October starts, but considering the unorganized games now, it seems possible to start the second week of October at the earliest.

If the game is not related to ranking, it is possible to double the number of games, but most of the unorganized games are teams with a possibility of reaching the top five, such as SSG, KT, NC, and Samsung, so it is expected to be watched until the end.
