Fall baseball is expected to change drastically from this season.
By increasing the number of teams participating in the postseason, we are promoting the introduction of a 'final 6 play-off' system like professional basketball.
The KBO held a board meeting and decided to introduce a new method to autumn baseball as early as this season.
By increasing the number of teams participating in the postseason to 6 teams, like in professional basketball, the 4 teams from 3rd to 6th play the semi-playoff first, and then meet the 1st and 2nd place teams in the playoffs.
The plan is to get the top teams to participate in the fall baseball early and increase the number of games to attract more fans.
