The professional baseball game between the Samsung Lions and KT Wiz, which was scheduled to take place at Daegu Samsung Lions Park on the 13th, has been postponed due to rain.
Rain began falling in the Daegu area in the afternoon, leading to the eventual cancellation. The game that was canceled will be rescheduled. Samsung, which had anticipated starting pitcher Hwang Dong-jae on the 13th, will now send foreign pitcher Ariel Hurado to the mound on the 14th. KT has replaced Ko Young-pyo with William Cuevas.
Hurado has recorded 6 wins and 5 losses with an earned run average of 2.45 over 14 games this season. He achieved a scoreless victory against KT on May 15, pitching 6 innings, allowing 2 hits, 3 walks, and striking out 2. Cuevas has appeared on the mound 14 times this season, recording 2 wins and 7 losses with an earned run average of 6.17.
The game between LG Twins and Hanwha Eagles, which was scheduled to take place at Daejeon Hanwha Life Eagles Park, was also postponed due to rain.
On the 13th, a starting matchup was expected between Hanwha's Cody Ponce and LG's Song Seung-gi, but the postponement due to rain caused changes in the starting matchup. Hanwha will keep Ponce as their starter. LG has announced that Im Chan-kyu will be the starting pitcher instead of Song Seung-gi.
