KBO 2020
« Topic Start: May 03, 2020, 11:08:27 AM »
The season starts Tuesday.  Haven't seen anything further about ESPN televising games.  If I figure out a way to catch games on line I will post it here.  I believe the opening day games are all afternoon over there so they would be very early AM here.

Good to see.  Surprised they are showing them live. Assume there will be some replays during the day.

Ok, I bet $5 to win $6.50 on the Samsung Lions who will be the home team but the underdog.  I have a soft spot for them since that is the stadium we visited for a game last September.

Atlanta actually had a minor-league baseball club called the Crackers (1901-65; when the Braves arrived the following year the Crackers moved to Richmond and became the Braves' top farm club).

Here’s Eric Thames giving commentary on KBO. I like the guy.

I should know better but I am betting on Samsung again. Also betting on LG over Doosan which is like taking the Mets over the Yanks in their crosstown rivalry. That’s the TV game so maybe I can catch some of that in the AM. I believe it starts at 5:30 am.

I’m just not good at this KBO stuff. Luckily got my stimulus money today so I’m flush with cash.  Bring on NASCAR and the PGA Tour.

ESPN2 seems to be showing the weekday games on replay at 2:30 each afternoon. Have to see if I can catch some of today’s game.

Kia is up to 9-7. So can't fire Matt yet.

Matt Williams team lost 5 in a row to fall out of a playoff spot.  Not sure when the regular season ends.  They are a game out.

Matt and Kia fell short despite winning their final two games.  Standard decisions no doubt.

My bad. The season does not end until October 18. So still time for Matt and his crew.
