The professional baseball game between the Samsung Lions and the Lotte Giants, scheduled to be held at Daegu Samsung Lions Park on the 28th, was declared a no game due to heavy rain.
Samsung, which started foreign pitcher Denny Reyes, composed its starting lineup with center fielder Kim Ji-chan, designated hitter Kim Sung-yoon, left fielder Koo Ja-wook, first baseman Lewin Diaz, third baseman Kim Young-woong, second baseman Ryu Ji-hyuk, shortstop Lee Jae-hyun, catcher Kang Min-ho, and right fielder Park Seung-kyu.
Lotte set its starting lineup with center fielder Jang Du-seong, second baseman Go Seung-min, designated hitter Víctor Reyes, left fielder Jeon Jun-woo, right fielder Yoon Dong-hee, shortstop Jeon Min-jae, first baseman Na Seung-yeop, third baseman Son Ho-young, and catcher Son Sung-bin. Right-handed pitcher Na Gyun-an started.
During Lotte's attack in the top of the first inning, with one out and one on base, the game was interrupted by a downpour. The entrance to the dugout for the first and third base became flooded, and puddles formed around the outfield. Given the heavy rain, it seemed unlikely the game could resume soon, even if the rain stopped because ground maintenance would take considerable time.
Ultimately, the game was declared a no game due to rain.
Meanwhile, Samsung will start Choi Won-tae, and Lotte will start Park Se-woong on the 29th.
