(Central News Agency reporter Su Chih-she, Taipei 24th) Uni-President 7-Eleven Lions infielder Chu Jia-en today ran the 15,000th stolen base in CPBL history. He also hit a two-run homer, tying the game twice, and scored the walk-off run in the bottom of the 10th inning, leading the Lions to a 7-6 victory over the TSG Hawks and ending their 4-game losing streak.
The game was held tonight at the Tainan Asia-Pacific International Baseball Training Center Adult Baseball Stadium. Chu Jia-en first hit a single in the bottom of the 2nd inning. After one out, he attempted a stolen base and successfully reached second base, setting the 15,000th successful stolen base record in CPBL history.
In the bottom of the 1st inning, the Lions took the lead with a solo home run by Li Cheng-ling. In the bottom of the 3rd inning, Lin Tzu-hao hit a run-scoring single with no outs and runners on first and second. Chu Jia-en then hit a sacrifice fly, giving the Lions a 3-0 lead.
In the top of the 5th inning, the Hawks scored two runs with hits, walks, and errors, loading the bases with no outs. Wu Nien-ting then hit a two-run single. Later, Wang Po-jung drew a walk with one out, loading the bases again. Lions pitcher Li Chun threw a wild pitch, allowing the Hawks to score the tying run.
In the top of the 7th inning, foreign player Steven Moya hit a two-run homer to give the Hawks the lead, but in the bottom of the 8th inning, Chu Jia-en responded with a two-run homer to tie the score again.
The game went into extra innings. In the top of the 10th inning, the Hawks scored one run first. In the bottom of the 10th inning, Chu Jia-en again hit a timely single with one out to tie the score. Su Chih-chieh then pinch-hit and reached first and third. Chen Sheng-ping then hit a ground ball, relying on his fast legs to reach first base and avoid a double play, allowing Chu Jia-en to score the walk-off run.
In addition, the Lions sent Chen Chieh-hsien to pinch-hit in the bottom of the 7th inning. This was Chen Chieh-hsien's first appearance of the season, drawing cheers from the fans. Chen Chieh-hsien had fractured his left index finger after being hit by a pitch in this year's World Baseball Classic (WBC) and only returned to the first-team game today.
