Heavy rain poured into Sajik Stadium in Busan, where three home runs were hit from the first inning.

Game 2 of the week-on-week series between the NC Dinos and the Lotte Giants is being held at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 7th.

NC slept in the lineup with Park Min-woo (designated hitter), Seo Ho-chul (second base), Davison (first base), Kwon Hee-dong (left wing), Kim Hwi-jip (third base), Kim Sung-wook (center fielder), Chun Jae-hwan (right wing), Kim Hyung-joon (catcher), and Kim Joo-won (striker). Play with the same lineup as the previous day. The starter is veteran Lee Jae-hak.

Lotte's Kim Min-seok was canceled from the first team, and Shin Yoon-hoo was registered instead. Hwang Sung-bin (center fielder), Ko Seung-min (second base), Jeon Joon-woo (designated hitter), Reyes (left fielder), Son Ho-young (third base), Na Seung-yeop (1st base), Yoon Dong-hee (right fielder), Park Seung-wook (striker), and Son Sung-bin (catcher) will stand against each other. Only Na Seung-yeop and Yoon Dong-hee's batting order has changed, Lotte is also virtually the same as the previous day. Kim Jin-wook is the first choice.

At the start of the game, cannons exploded from both teams.

In the first inning, NC's foreign hitter Davison fired a two-run shot in the middle of the month. The distance of 135m was taken at a batting speed of 178.4km.

Davison's 34th this season. The gap with Kim Do-young (KIA Tigers), who ranks second in home runs, widened to five.

Lotte immediately turned the game around in the bottom of the first inning.

Leading hitter Hwang Sung-bin got on base with a double to the right-center, and Ko Seung-min hit a tiebreaking two-run shot over the right fence. It was a home run with a batting speed of 166.8km and a distance of 130m. NC starter Lee Jae-hak's change-up, which was in the middle, was not missed. Yoon Dong-hee's come-from-behind three-run shot followed.

However, during NC's attack in the top of the second inning, rain suddenly poured as if there was a hole in the sky. The rain quickly thickened before even the fans, let alone the referee, could react, and soon turned into heavy rain.

At this time, the Lotte Stadium management team's quick response stood out. Although it was in the first inning, he exchanged three home runs, showing his willingness not to make a game with a 5-2 lead and no game.

About 10 officials, including the stadium's security guards, rushed to the ground all at once and laid out an ultra-large tarpaulin covering the entire infield at a high speed.
