TVING’s KBO home page and October schedule list Game 1 of the 2026 semi-playoffs between LG and KIA for Saturday, October 17, at 2 p.m. in Gwangju. The game card lists Anders Tolhurst for LG and James Nail for KIA as the starters. The “scheduled” label indicates that the date and starting pitchers have been posted ahead of the game. It does not by itself confirm that the game has been played or indicate its result.
Reports specify Gwangju-Kia Champions Field as the venue
Newsis and YTN reported on October 16 that the game would be held at Gwangju-Kia Champions Field, with KIA’s Nail and LG’s Tolhurst named as the expected starters. Compared with TVING’s listing of “Gwangju,” the reports add the stadium’s name and specify which team each starter is listed for. Since these are announced starters, they can be distinguished from the game result.
Live coverage of the entire postseason and a Game 1 Super Match
According to TVING’s announcement, as reported by iMBC, every game of the 2026 KBO postseason will be streamed exclusively, and a TVING Super Match is scheduled for Game 1 of the semi-playoffs. The live-streaming announcement covers the entire postseason, while the Super Match announcement identifies the broadcast planned for Game 1. The schedule page provides the game time and listed starters; the coverage announcement specifies the scope of the live streams and the Game 1 broadcast.
