KBO changed the opening time of the game between Kiwoom Heroes and SSG Landers, which was scheduled to be held at 1 p.m. at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on March 14-15. Playball will be declared at 6 p.m. on the 14th and at 2 p.m. on the 15th.
The game between the NC Dinos and the SSG Landers at SSG Landers Field in Incheon on March 18 has also been reorganized into an evening game, not a daytime game. The start of the game has been changed from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m.
KIA Tigers and Samsung Lions also added another night game during the exhibition game. The two teams are scheduled to face off at 6 p.m. on March 18 at Kia Champions Field in Gwangju. The initial start time of the game was 1 p.m.
The first home game of the Kia Tigers’ 2024 KBO exhibition game is against the KT Wiz on March 16. New manager Lee Bum-ho, who took the helm during the spring camp, will greet home fans in Gwangju for the first time.
Doosan Bears and Kiwoom Heroes will avoid long-distance expeditions. The two teams will play two consecutive games at Icheon Bears Park, Doosan’s second-tier stadium, from March 9 to 10.
Doosan and Kiwoom cannot afford to play at their home stadiums. Doosan has to go on an expedition to Jamsil Baseball Stadium in Seoul, which it is currently using with the LG Twins, in the early stages of an exhibition game. The exhibition game will begin on March 14 at the home turf against the KIA Tigers.
Kiwoom will play the entire exhibition game away with ground repair work as the opening game of the Major League between the LA Dodgers and the San Diego Padres will be held on March 20-21.
KBO originally organized the opening two consecutive games between Doosan and Kiwoom on March 9-10 at Masan Baseball Stadium, the NC Dinos’ second-tier stadium, but the Icheon Bears Park was recently finalized.
The 2024 KBO exhibition game schedule was organized in consideration of the stadium that cannot be used due to travel distance and ground construction by team (Jamsil: March 9 to March 13, Gocheok: March 9 to 19, Munhak: March 9 to 13, Daegu: March 9 to 10, and Gwangju: March 9 to 14). Masan Stadium was set as a neutral stadium.
Masan Baseball Stadium has been used for second-tier games since 2019 as Changwon NC Park was completed after the 2018 season and NC utilized it. Although it was an exhibition game, there was a possibility of holding an official game at Masan Baseball Stadium for the first time in six years, but it did not happen due to KBO’s schedule adjustment.
In the exhibition game, players and fostering players can participate, and there is no limit on the number of players participating. In addition, all exhibition games will begin at 1 p.m. and no overtime or doubleheader will be held. Cancellation games will not be reorganized, and video replays can be applied twice per team. However, if the judgment is reversed for two consecutive times, one additional video replays can be applied.
