The Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) and SK Shields' physical security brand ADT Caps held a signing ceremony at KBO Studios on the 24th and signed an official sponsorship for the 2026 Shinhan SOL KBO League.

KBO explained, "By comparing the value of 'safety' kept by ADT Caps, Korea's leading physical security brand, to 'defense' that prevents runs in the KBO league, we will participate as an official sponsor of the 2026 KBO League."

ADT Caps will deliver the value of defense to KBO league fans through various programs such as daily "Caps Play" content, "Monthly Caps Play" awards, and participation in KBO defense award naming sponsors.

"Caps Play" is a content in which KBO and ADT Caps select good defense scenes from KBO league games and produce and introduce them as short-form videos, which will be posted on KBO's official Instagram the day after the game.

KBO League fans can see the impressive defensive scenes from each game again through "Caps Play."

In addition, the 2026 KBO League "Monthly Caps Play" will be established with the ADT Caps, and the award ceremony will be held at the player's home stadium with 1 million won in prize money for the player who showed the best defense every month six times from April to September.

The "Monthly Caps Play" selects the player who made a defensive play that broke the highest point during the period by comprehensively evaluating the contribution to the probability of victory and the consumption index by the official record committee.

The first monthly Capsplay winner goes to the player of defensive play, who scored the highest during the KBO League games in March and April.

In addition, at the end of the season, the "2026 ADT Caps KBO Defense Award" will be presented to players in each position who showed the best defensive ability in a season.

"It is meaningful to share the value of 'keeping' through the KBO league with 12 million spectators," SK Shields CEO Min Ki-sik said. "Like a defense that prevents runs on the ground, ADT Caps will protect customers' safety with tight security."
