'Why aren't the games resumed?'

Doosan Bears manager Lee Seung-yeop strongly protested the declaration of the cold game of rainfall.

Doosan suffered a 0-67 rain cold game loss in the game against SSG Landers at Jamsil Stadium on the 29th.




Doosan starter Kim Dong-ju was crushed by SSG's momentum, which drove three home runs from the beginning. So Doosan was dragged and had a tough game.

On this day, there was a rain forecast due to the northward rain front from the evening. In fact, about an hour after the start of the game, it began to rain after 6 p.m., and the rain became thicker and thicker, and the decision to suspend it was made at 6:58 p.m. It was just before the start of the attack in the bottom of the seventh inning when Doosan was losing 0-6.

Half an hour has passed. The rain has thinned a little. So the judges waited another 10 minutes after checking the ground. And 40 minutes after the interruption, the final rainfall cold decision was made at 7:38 p.m.




Then coach Lee, who was in the dugout at first base, complained to the umpires. The question was why the game was not resumed when the ground condition was not bad. In the timing of Lee's protest, the actual rain had shrunk a lot.

Because of the cold sign of rainfall, SSG players greeted the away fans on the third base and left. However, the Doosan team at first base was unable to pack. Head coach Lee and head coach Park Heung-sik spoke with the referees for about 10 minutes. The judges persuaded Lee, citing the ground condition and the continuous forecast of heavy rain.

In the end, manager Lee agreed, and Doosan players also greeted home fans on the first base. And the rain became thick again like a lie. It was a six-point gap, but it is not a professional to give up the game with three innings left. Furthermore, he was about to attack in the bottom of the seventh inning. In a way, in a situation where the rain has decreased, it may have been a natural appeal that director Lee can make.
