The Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) teams LG Twins and NC Dinos are scheduled to face each other on the 22nd at 6:30 p.m. at Seoul's Jamsil Stadium for the third match of the season.

However, it remains uncertain whether the game will be held as scheduled due to rain. Heavy rain has been falling in the Seoul area since the morning, and as of 2:30 p.m., thick rain is still pouring down.

According to the weather forecast, the rain is expected to lighten around 4 p.m., with a cessation around 5 p.m.

LG faced two rain delays in the game against SSG Landers on the 19th at Incheon SSG Landers Field, resulting in a total delay of 2 hours and 35 minutes (155 minutes) before playing the game. The game, which started at 2 p.m., ended at 8:13 p.m.

A significant amount of rain has fallen throughout the day, saturating the grass both inside and outside the field. Even if the rain stops, it seems unlikely that the game will proceed due to the conditions of the field.

It remains to be seen if the KBO will decide to push forward with the game after conducting ground maintenance if the rain stops, even if there is a delay.

If weekday games are canceled due to rain, they will not be held as doubleheaders the following day (Friday, Saturday), unlike weekend games, and will be rescheduled later.

The starting pitchers for both teams on this day are expected to be Im Chan-kyu for LG and Shin Min-hyuk for NC.

Im Chan-kyu has appeared in 4 games, recording 4 wins and an earned run average (ERA) of 1.80. He is currently tied for first place in wins and third in ERA. With a fastball velocity in the low 140 km range, he has demonstrated improved control and skill this season.

In his first appearance of the season, he recorded his first complete game win against Hanwha, and he has secured victories in all 4 games. His flawless pitching against Hanwha, KT, Kiwoom, and Samsung resulted in scores of no runs-1 run-1 run-2 runs.

Shin Min-hyuk has recorded 1 win and 1 loss with an ERA of 3.60 in 3 games this season. After ending last year's season early in September and undergoing elbow bone fragment removal surgery, Shin has completed 5 innings in each of his 3 games. He became the losing pitcher against Lotte on the 12th, allowing 2 runs on 7 hits and 2 walks over 5 innings.

NC is missing home run king Davidson and 300 career hitter Park Gun-woo due to injuries.
