The LG Twins-NC Dinos match scheduled to be held at Changwon NC Park on the 14th was canceled due to rain. The rain that had been falling since the day did not stop, and in fact, as the rain became more intense, the warning track in the outfield was filled with water to the point where puddles formed.
Supervisor Kim Si-jin came out several times to inspect the ground, and the decision to cancel was eventually made at 5:20 p.m. There is no reserve date for this game, so it will be scheduled at a later date.
After finishing a four-game series including a double header with the KIA Tigers on the 8th to 10th, LG took a three-day break until the 13th and came down to Changwon, but was unable to play the game due to rain. It’s like having a four-day break.토토사이트
LG will immediately move to Daejeon and play an away game against the Hanwha Eagles on the 15th, then return to Seoul to play a home game against SSG Landers in Jamsil on the 16th, and a double header against SSG on the 17th.
The starting rotation has also changed. Initially, Casey Kelly would start on this day, and replacement starters would be Yun-sik Kim against Hanwha on the 15th, Jeong-yong Lee against SSG on the 16th, and Chan-gyu Lim against SSG on the 17th in the doubleheader.
However, the rotation will be adjusted due to rain cancellation. LG coach Yeom Kyeong-yeop said, “Kim Yun-sik will pitch against Hanwha on the 15th, and Kelly will pitch against SSG on the 16th. Lee Jeong-yong and Lim Chan-gyu will pitch against SSG on the 17th.”
A substitute selection was also needed for the Gwangju KIA game on the 19th, and Coach Yeom decided on Lee Ji-kang. Due to the cancellation of today’s game, it became necessary to select the team against Suwon KT Wiz on the 20th, but Coach Yeom did not reveal the selection. Due to the cancellation due to rain on this day, LG’s schedule was disrupted as replacement starters had to enter next week’s KIA and KT games one after another. This is not an easy task for LG, who cannot yet secure the top spot as they have to use replacement starters against top teams with strong batting lineups.
I am also concerned that the four-day break may have helped strengthen the players’ physical strength, but it may not have helped their sense of game. The match against Hanwha and the subsequent three-game series against SSG over two days are important matches that LG must capture. Hanwha is a low-ranking team in terms of power, and SSG is a high-ranking team, but their performance has been declining recently. LG must win in order to secure first place, but if the four-day break helps and the pitchers show good pitches and the batters also show powerful hitting, they can widen the gap with the second-place teams again.
NC will play a two-game series against the Samsung Lions in Changwon on the 15th and 16th and then take a break on the 17th and 18th.
