The first showdown in 31 years between the English and South Korean teams.


The Korean series between KIA and Samsung will play in two games today after twists and turns.

The rest of the first game, which was suspended on Monday, will be played shortly from 4 p.m.

Let's talk in detail by connecting with the reporter. Reporter Lee Kyungjae!

Looking at the sky behind this reporter, I don't have to worry about the weather today, right?

[Reporter]
The weather is clear today and there is no forecast for rain.

As the sunny weather came in three days, the stadium was cleared of tarps, and the wet grass dried up a lot.

Today is a great day to play baseball in both weather and stadium conditions.

Since today's first game is 4, the players also came out earlier than usual to warm up.

The home team KIA players came out in short sleeves and prepared for the game. (The away team Samsung players are practicing on the playground now.)

In the first suspension of the postseason and the decision to postpone yesterday, the players of the two teams agreed to play their games calmly.

It's about KIA Kim Sun-bin and Samsung Kim Hun-gon, who showed the best batting performance until the beginning of the first game on Monday.

[Kim Sun-bin / KIA infielder: The atmosphere hasn't changed at all. I just think it's a suspended game, but the atmosphere itself doesn't seem to be affected much.]

[Kim Hun-gon / Samsung outfielder: It's hard. We can rest when it's over, so I don't think fatigue will be a big problem for the players in this area]

First of all, the first game will continue with Samsung leading 1-0, right?

[Reporter]
Precisely, Samsung leads 1-0 with no-out runners on first and second bases in the sixth inning, and the ball count will continue to play in one ball.

Jang Hyun-sik was on the KIA mound, and Samsung was Kim Young-woong's at-bat.

Of course, it's okay to replace pitchers or batters because the game continues as it is.

It is a good opportunity for Samsung to score additional points, and KIA must be prevented, so the result in the top of the sixth inning is likely to determine the outcome of the first game.

Therefore, both teams are expected to quickly put in the best bullpens.

Since today's game is similar to a doubleheader, the team that lost the first game has no choice but to fight with a lot of pressure in the second game.

In the second game, KIA predicted Yang Hyun-jong as the starter early, and Samsung is struggling with Hwang Dong-jae and left-handed Lee Seung-hyun, and it can be said that a player who does not play in the first game will take the mound.
