(Central News Agency reporter Su Chih-Hsieh, Taipei, 2nd) Chinese Professional Baseball League Uni-Lions infielder Su Chih-Chieh has regained his power-hitting form this year. Today, he hit a two-run homer, extending his streak to three consecutive games with a home run, and contributing to the team's 9-2 victory over the Rakuten Monkeys. Pitcher Chang Yu-Chien, who is under 20 years old, also made team history by becoming the second youngest starting pitcher to earn a win.
Su Chih-Chieh collectively hit 89 home runs from 2017 to 2020, showcasing his power-hitting prowess. However, from 2021 to 2025, he only hit a total of 27 home runs, which is even fewer than his single-season record of 28 home runs in 2020. This year, he started the season by hitting a home run in his first game on March 29.
Following that, Su Chih-Chieh also hit home runs in his most recent appearances on April 28 and May 1. Today, in the game against the Monkeys, after Lin Tzu-Hao hit an RBI single in the bottom of the first inning, Su Chih-Chieh blasted a two-run homer, giving the Uni-Lions a 4-0 lead by the end of the inning, which they never relinquished.
Today, Su Chih-Chieh had 3 hits in 4 at-bats, along with one walk. He continued his streak of hitting home runs in 3 consecutive games, which is the fourth time in his career. The first time was in 2016, and he achieved it twice in 2020. This year, he has accumulated 4 home runs, with 3 of them hit at the Tainan Asia-Pacific Baseball Stadium.
Young Uni-Lions pitcher Chang Yu-Chien pitched 5 innings, giving up 3 hits and 2 runs, along with 4 walks. With the strong offensive support from his teammates, he earned his first career win. At 19 years and 305 days old, he became the second youngest pitcher in team history to earn a starting win, surpassed only by Chiang Chen-Yan (now known as Chiang Cheng-Yen) in 2014, who was 19 years and 124 days old.
