Chiang Kun-Yu Praises Chang Jen-Wei; Sung Sheng-Jui Sent to Minor League with Thigh Strain

Chiang Kun-Yu of the CTBC Brothers returned to the first team today. Chang Jen-Wei, who has been in good form, moved to third base, and Chiang praised Chang's performance, saying, "The team feels very secure with A-Wei (Chang) here." Meanwhile, outfielder Sung Sheng-Jui was sent to the minor league due to a minor strain on the front of his left thigh. The Brothers played against the Fubon Guardians at the Taipei Dome today. Key fielders Chan Tzu-Hsien and Chiang Kun-Yu returned to the first team, while Sung Sheng-Jui and Li Sheng-Yu were sent down. Brothers manager Hirano Keiichi stated that Sung Sheng-Jui has a minor strain near his left hip, but it is not serious, and he will be rested for a few days to monitor his condition. Chiang returned to shortstop, and Chang Jen-Wei, who filled in at shortstop, moved to third base. Chang has performed well in the first team so far, with 30 hits in 99 at-bats, including one home run, for a batting average of .303. Manager Hirano explained that the decision to put Chang at third base was to ensure he gets playing time, as putting him in the outfield might be too much of a burden. When asked about Chang's performance, Chiang praised him, saying, "He has always performed well. Whether at shortstop or other positions, he is always there when needed. The team feels secure with A-Wei here."
