'With the rain, Samsung and Doosan cried' No game of controversy, cold game...I trust the forecast and cancel it. Is it realistic

Samsung Lions manager Park Jin-man and Doosan Bears manager Lee Seung-yeop were angry. It's because of the rain.
Rain cancellations, rainfall colds, and no-game issues that are repeated every year during the rainy season. Is there a solution. Is it impossible.
Coach Park Jin-man made a determined statement ahead of a double header against KT Wiz at Suwon KT Wiz Park on the 30th.
The game was leading 7-1 in the fourth inning against KT on the 29th, but the game was declared no game due to rain. On the day of the game, I was angry that he did not continue the game, even though the rain became a little thinner. When the rain died down, it would have been possible to win the rainfall cold if it was only up to the 5th inning. The reason why the game did not resume was because of the rain forecast.
Why did the game, which had so much rain forecast, suffer the players by pushing ahead with the game without making a decision to cancel it before the start of the game.

During the game, the referees canceled it, saying that even if it rained less, it would rain more considering the forecast and radar observation, but they asked why they didn't use the forecast before the game. It was a reasonable point. Other coaches, including LG Twins manager Yeom Kyung-yeop, made similar claims.
Coach Lee Seung-yeop was in a similar situation on the same day. It was losing 0-6. Just before the attack in the bottom of the seventh inning, the game was suspended. When the judges decided to cancel, the rain decreased a lot. But the decision was a game of rainfall cold.
This was also largely due to the forecast. Not long after the actual cancellation decision, a huge amount of rain poured down.
However, Doosan's bench claims that there is no way to cancel due to forecast. When the rain decreased, it was right to make an inset first, and when the rain increased again, it was right to decide to cancel it. Due to the unilateral cancellation, the same seven attack opportunities were not guaranteed. It was natural to feel unfair because I was able to make one more opponent use the winning team.

The team saves power, and the audience does not have to walk in vain, so the cause is good.
First of all, the cancellation of the game is judged by the game supervisor until the start of the game and by the referee after the start of the game.
From the supervisor's point of view, it's a great adventure to cancel the game when it's not raining right away. No matter how advanced the technology is, the forecast is literally just a forecast.
We don't know when or how the weather will change. It may be said that we should cancel in advance only when forecasting probability and precipitation, which may also be misleading as the situation may vary from region to region.
If it doesn't rain or can play with less rain, you should think of a case of rainfall cold, not a no-game. In principle, the game should be played if possible, and unlike Suwon on the 29th, a formal game can be established like Jamsil, but it is difficult to cancel it prematurely.

However, the cancellation according to the referee's forecast during the game should be supplemented. Taking Jamsil as an example on the 29th, it would have been a big controversy if it had not rained much again even though it had been canceled even though the rain had tapered based on the forecast.
It is natural to refer to the forecast in a situation where it is raining heavily, but in a situation where the game can be resumed, a judgment such as 'It will rain a lot anyway, so let's finish it early' can create a big misunderstanding.
For reference, according to KBO regulations, weather forecasts can only be used as a basis when special weather reports such as typhoons and fine dust are made. Rainfall forecasts are literally just one of the referees' notes and cannot be all grounds for cancellation.
