The 11th game of the season between the NC Dinos and the Hanwha Eagles, which was scheduled to be held at Cheongju Baseball Stadium on the afternoon of the 22nd, was canceled due to repeated rain. It started to rain after 4 p.m. at Cheongju Baseball Stadium on the day. The NC team hurriedly stopped training before the game. The game was about to proceed as the rain subsided ahead of the spectators' entrance. However, it rained again from around 6 p.m.
This series between NC and Hanwha in Cheongju has been repeatedly suspended due to rain. First of all, the game started to be delayed for 30 minutes on Tuesday, and at the beginning of the ninth inning, the game was briefly suspended for 24 minutes before resuming. The game on Monday started as scheduled at 6:30 p.m., but was suspended for 43 minutes at the beginning of the sixth inning. Even with 30 minutes left before the normal start of the game on Tuesday, there was a variable in which strong rain poured in.
A little after 6:10 p.m., the game management committee came to the ground to check the condition. In the end, they decided to cancel the game after deciding that it would be difficult to start the game. Players from both teams came to the ground to greet fans and announce the cancellation of the game. As there were not many opportunities to watch professional baseball games in Cheongju, the spectators who had already entered could not hide their regret.
Meanwhile, Cheongju games on Tuesday and Monday failed to reach full capacity. 8,429 spectators attended on Tuesday and 8,102 spectators attended on Sunday. The three consecutive games held from June 18 to 20 between Kiwoom and Hanwha sold out 9,000 seats. "There were many cancellations on the day of the game due to rain news," Hanwha said.
