The KBO League is the highest level league of baseball in South Korea. The KBO started play in 1982 with six teams. Four of them have since changed their names and one has relocated, while the league added four more along the way. Flash forward to 2017, there are 10 teams in the league, all working towards the goal of being one of five playoff teams and winning this fall’s Korean Series.

In Korea’s pro league, teams are affiliated with big conglomerates like Kia, Lotte, Samsung, etc. How does this positively or negatively affect the league?”
