Chen Pin-hung Makes First Career Start; Manager Jokes About Chang Yi's Luck

NEW TAIPEI — Fubon Guardians' left-handed pitcher Chen Pin-hung made his CPBL first-team debut today against the Wei Chuan Dragons. Chen pitched 3 innings, allowing 2 runs (1 earned) with 3 strikeouts and 3 walks. Manager Goto Mitsutaka praised his effort, noting it exceeded coaching expectations. The Guardians rallied in the late innings, securing a 4-3 victory with Kong Nien-en's walk-off hit in the 9th. Manager Goto also humorously noted pitcher Chang Yi's 'metaphysical' power, as the team frequently stages comeback wins whenever he takes the mound.
