For the first time in the 43-year history of professional baseball, suspended games are held in the postseason. Suspended games are temporary suspension games, which mean games that continue as they are suspended.메이저놀이터

Game 1 of the Korean Series between KIA and Samsung held at Gwangju-Kia Champions Field on the 21st was suspended due to rain in the top of the sixth inning and eventually failed to resume due to thick rain. Since the away team Samsung scored a point in the top of the sixth inning, the game was suspended without completing the attack in the bottom of the sixth inning and eventually failed to continue again, resulting in a suspended game.

The first game of the Korean Series on the day, when KIA and Samsung met for the first time in 31 years, started amid twists and turns that they laid a large tarpaulin three times even before the game began. KIA starter James Nail and Samsung starter Won Tae-in, who returned from injury, took the lead with outstanding pitching.

It was in the top of the sixth inning that the 0-0 balance was broken. Samsung's leadoff hitter Kim Hun-gon hit a superior solo home run by pushing Nail's fifth sweeper with a ball count of 2-2. The next batter, Diaz, took a walk to replace the nail, and Kang Min-ho also took a walk from Jang Hyun-sik of KIA who took the mound to get on base, and Kang Min-ho, the first and second bases with no outs and Kim Young-woong, the fifth batter of Samsung, picked the first ball, and the referee stopped the game.

With the away team scoring points and leading after the official game was established according to baseball rules, if the home team's attack on the next inning is not completed, a suspended game will be declared, not a cold game. This is because neither team had a fair chance to attack.

With the first postseason suspended game declared in the history of professional baseball, the first game will resume at Gwangju-Kia Champions Field at 4 p.m. on Tuesday with Kim Young-woong's at-bat ball count at 1B-0S, with no outs and runners on the first and second bases at the top of the sixth inning when Samsung leads 1-0. After the game is over, the second game will begin after an hour of rest. If the first game is completed before 5:30 p.m., the second game will start at 6:30 p.m. In fact, the two teams will have to play doubleheader.

However, rain is forecasted in Gwangju on Tuesday as well. If the game fails to proceed due to rain, it will be postponed to Sunday, and the overall schedule of the Korean Series will be postponed. Only the first game of suspended games may be played, and only the second game may be postponed.
