A 'head-to-head matchup of foreign starters from Incheon' has materialized. At Incheon Landers Field, where rain is falling, a direct clash between the two teams' ace foreign pitchers will take place.

The '2026 Shinhan SOL KBO League' game between SSG Landers and Samsung Lions, originally scheduled to be held at Incheon SSG Landers Field on the 26th, was cancelled due to rain. Cloudy weather persisted from the afternoon, and as the game time approached, the raindrops grew heavier and did not stop, leading Game Supervisor Park Jong-hoon to ultimately decide on the rain cancellation effective at 6:01 p.m.

Both team managers have announced their starting pitchers for the game to be held at the same venue on the 27th: Anthony Benigiano (SSG) and Ariel Huardo (Samsung). SSG kept its original starter, while Samsung changed from Won Tae-in to Huardo.

Due to the rain, both teams' bullpens have been granted a sweet respite, making the 27th game a potential all-out bullpen battle. Especially for SSG, which has fallen into a seven-game losing streak, this provides a much-needed break.

Meanwhile, the cancelled game will be rescheduled as part of the remaining game schedule at a later date.
