South Korea's provisional roster for the baseball competition at this fall's Asian Games will be unveiled in early April, the country's professional league office said Wednesday, with the final roster expected to follow in early May.

The Korea Baseball Organization (KBO), which oversees professional competition, said it will work closely with the Korea Baseball Softball Association (KBSA), the amateur governing body, in putting together the preliminary national team.

The Korean Sport & Olympic Committee (KSOC), in charge of the national delegation for the Sept. 10-25 Asian Games in Hangzhou, China, has recently set an April 7 deadline for provisional teams in all sports.
