Postseason stays open past mid-October due to frequent rain cancellations even after remaining schedule announced
Rain delayed game
A game between the Lotte Giants and Doosan Bears in the 2023 KBO at Jamsil Baseball Stadium in Seoul, South Korea, on the afternoon of May 25. 카지노사이트 Lotte players walk to the dugout after the game was suddenly suspended due to rain in the seventh inning.
The 2023 Korean Baseball Organization (KBO) regular season has been disrupted by unrelenting rain.
After a summer rainy season and a "secondary rainy season," autumn rains are falling on the 13th. The Korea Meteorological Administration predicts that the rain will continue through the weekend.
The KBO's struggle to prepare for the postseason is intensifying.
On Aug. 29, the KBO announced the remaining schedule of 116 games, including 50 unrescheduled games and 66 games canceled due to rain.
The goal was to finish the regular season on October 10 and play the wild-card deciding game, the first gateway to "fall baseball," 온라인카지노 two days later on October 12.
However, on the day the remaining games were announced, five games were canceled due to rain across the country, and seven more were not played.
With the carefully crafted schedule threatening to be upended again, KBO officials were understandably upset.
"If even one game is canceled per day, the regular season schedule will be extended by one day," the KBO explained. "As of the 12th, the regular season was scheduled to end on October 14 and the postseason on October 16, taking into account the later cancellations, but if it is canceled again due to rain on the 13th, the final game of the regular season will be moved to October 15 and the start of the postseason to October 17."
If the rain continues through the weekend, the worst-case scenario is that the wild-card series might not begin until October 20. Winter baseball is a reality.
The KBO is considering alternatives, such as playing a doubleheader and playing the remaining games between teams eliminated from the postseason during fall baseball.
In an effort to learn from this year's scheduling difficulties, which have been described as "epic," the KBO is set to finalize the outline of next year's regular season schedule at the Executive Committee, a meeting of the 10 clubs' presidents, on Nov. 19.
Based on the general consensus of the baseball world, it is expected that the regular season will start in the early 20s of March, more than a week earlier than this year, and will also discuss the possibility of scheduling Monday games instead of doubleheaders, as some on-field leaders have advocated.
As the third Premier 12, organized by the World Baseball Softball Confederation (WBSC), will be held from Nov. 10 to 24 next year, 카지노사이트존 the postseason schedule must end by the end of October to allow for national team training.
