There was a problem with the ABS equipment, and the game reverted to 'old baseball.' The officiating crew made the strike/ball calls.

On the 5th, during the eighth game of the season between the LG Twins and NC Dinos at Changwon NC Park.

At 6:30 p.m., while the NC players were preparing to start the game on the field, the officiating crew did not go to their positions. The officiating crew instructed the starter, Riley, who was on the mound, and the NC players to come into the dugout.

"The game has been delayed due to ABS equipment checks," was the message displayed on the electronic board. After about 4 minutes, the officiating crew announced, "We will proceed with the game based on our own judgments." The game started at 6:35 p.m., delayed by 5 minutes.

The game was officiated by chief umpire Na Gwang-nam, first base umpire Kim Seon-soo, second base umpire Kim Jeong-guk, and third base umpire Lee Yong-hyeok.

LG's starting lineup included Shin Min-jae (2nd baseman), Park Hae-min (center fielder), Austin (1st baseman), Moon Bo-gyeong (designated hitter), Moon Sung-ju (left fielder), Moon Jeong-bin (3rd baseman), Song Chan-ui (right fielder), Lee Ju-heon (catcher), and Lee Young-bin (shortstop).

Kim Hyun-soo was substituted during the previous day's game due to discomfort in his right side and is still not in normal condition. Park Dong-won will miss the game due to sudden back pain. Oh Ji-hwan was substituted during the previous day's game due to a batting slump and has decided to increase his training volume for the time being.

NC's starting lineup included Park Min-woo (2nd baseman), Kim Joo-won (shortstop), Park Gun-woo (right fielder), Davidson (1st baseman), Kwon Hee-dong (left fielder), Kim Hwi-jip (3rd baseman), Oh Young-soo (designated hitter), Kim Hyung-jun (catcher), and Cheon Jae-hwan (center fielder). It is the same lineup as the previous day.

LG's starting pitcher is Hernandez. He returned from a 6-week rehabilitation due to a thigh injury after making his first start on April 15 against Samsung. He performed admirably in his return against Samsung on the 30th, allowing 1 run (unearned) over 6 innings. This marks his first start against NC this season.
