Baseball Fandom that can't be Stopped by Strong Winds or Scorching Sun... KBO All-Star Game Fever
Uniforms start to change in an hour.
Lotte-SSG, Summer Race Clash
There is a fable about the sun and the wind making a bet to see who could take off a traveler's coat first.
The confident wind came first and caused a strong wind, but the traveler held on to his coat tightly, and the sun shone with warm rays, forcing the traveler to take off his coat himself.
However, if Incheon SSG Landers Field, where the KBO All-Star Game was held on the 6th, had been the setting of the fable, the sun and the wind would not have been able to decide the winner. 카지노사이트 모음
Incheon SSG Landers Field, which was originally forecast to have monsoon rain, was covered with dark clouds and a strong wind advisory was issued, and around 2 p.m., the intense sunlight poured down and it became a steaming hot place for a moment.
However, the fans of the 10 professional baseball teams gathered from all over the country did not care.
Even if it was windy or scorching hot, they enjoyed various off-field events such as the batting zone and pitching zone from five to six hours before the game started, wearing various uniforms.
Umbrellas to block the rain were transformed into parasols, and in the other hand, hand fans and hand fans that they had brought along just in case were spinning diligently.
In particular, a long line literally snaked out in front of the booth selling All-Star uniforms.
The line, about 40-50m long, was ten layers deep, forming an S shape.
The booth, which opened at 1pm, had to put up a sign saying that all the Hanwha Eagles and SSG Landers uniforms were sold out within an hour.
Kwon A-in (16), from Asan, Chungcheongnam-do, had been waiting since noon, but was upset because she could not get the All-Star Hanwha Uniform.
Kwon Yang, who was trying to console his disappointment with a small keychain, said, "I'm most looking forward to Ferraza (Hanwha) and Dawson (Kiwoom Heroes) today.
Dawson is hot these days with his performance, and I heard Ferraza has prepared a lot too."
Kwon Yang, who was wearing a Hanwha Noh Si-hwan uniform, covered his mouth and said, "I'm really sad" when he heard the news that Noh Si-hwan would be out due to shoulder pain.
At 3:10 PM, a fan signing event was held at the outfield ground.
After that, the 'Summer Race', an obstacle course relay race between players and fans, was held.
Last year's winning team, Lotte Giants and SSG Landers, both showed off fantastic teamwork and advanced to the finals.
The finals seemed to end with Lotte's victory, but due to an issue raised by SSG.
The selection of the winning team and prize money distribution will be discussed at a later date.
An SSG official explained the situation at the time, saying, "The last section is where a female fan throws a ball and hits the bat.
If you watch the video, you can see that the ball thrown by the Lotte fan hit the bottom of the bat support, while the ball thrown by the SSG fan hit the bat directly."
A KBO Official said, "There are some ambiguous parts to the situation, so we will discuss it at a later date."
