Things to Know Before Betting on the KBO
- The KBO is made of 10 teams
- Because there are only 10 teams, the league doesn’t have divisions or separate leagues
- KBO lineups include a universal designated hitter
- Games end in a draw after the 12th inning. 14 games ended this way in 2019, and there were 12 draws in 2018
- Only five teams make the playoffs in a rather unique postseason format. Click here for more KBO postseason details
