KBO has taken preemptive measures in preparation for the heat of murder.
KBO announced on the 6th that it has decided to change the start time of the Sunday and holiday games to cope with the recent hot weather conditions.
As a measure to secure the safety of spectators, players, and field personnel following the recent heat wave and the issuance of special heat reports, Sunday and holiday games scheduled for August this season will begin at 6 p.m.
The games, which were previously scheduled to start at 5 p.m. on Sunday, August 11, 18 and 25, and Liberation Day on August 15, will be changed to 6 p.m.
However, the KIA-Kium match on the 15th and the LG-Kium match on the 25th, scheduled at Gocheok Sky Dome, will begin at 5:00 and 2:00, respectively. Gocheok Dome is a pleasant environment with air conditioning.
At the same time, KBO urged each club on the 6th to do its best to ensure the safe viewing of the audience in the event of an abnormal high temperature phenomenon.
In addition, KBO plans to reorganize related regulations and come up with detailed supplementary measures through expert advice for safe and smooth league operation for everyone in preparation for abnormal climate.
Meanwhile, for the game on the 11th, the club's admission ticket reservation channel will announce the related information separately in case it is inevitable to watch the game due to a change in the game's start time.
