(Central News Agency reporter Su Chih-She, Taipei, 3rd) The Chinese Professional Baseball League's Wei Chuan Dragons had a thrilling victory today, relying on 'Brother Chu' Chu Yu-Hsien's two home runs in a single game to tie the score, eventually defeating the Fubon Guardians 6-4. The tense game situation made head coach Yeh Chun-Chang not notice the second homer; Chu Yu-Hsien laughed and said, 'The coach was too focused.'
The Dragons' starting pitcher Bryan Woodall pitched 6 innings, giving up 8 hits and 4 runs, leaving the game with the team still trailing by one run. However, Chu Yu-Hsien, who hit a solo home run in the bottom of the 4th inning, hit another home run in the bottom of the 8th to tie the score, igniting a 3-run offensive in that inning, leading to a comeback victory.
This was Chu Yu-Hsien's 23rd time hitting two or more home runs in a single game in his career, and his first since joining the Dragons. When informed, head coach Yeh Chun-Chang looked puzzled and said, 'Did he hit two today? I only noticed one (the tying home run). He's really amazing, hope he keeps getting better.'
Regarding this, Chu Yu-Hsien laughed and said, 'The situation was quite tense today, everyone was very focused on the game, whether it's the coaches or the players.'
Yesterday, he also had 2 hits and 2 RBIs in a single game, but the team lost by one run. Today, Chu Yu-Hsien contributed to the victory with two solo home runs. He stated that players cannot control wins or losses at the moment, what they can do is play their roles well. He added that the team's base running has been good this year, creating pressure on opposing pitchers and leading to more missed pitches. 'The pitchers' performance has also been impeccable. Whether it's pitching, hitting, or fielding, the performance so far this year has been very good.'
Dragons outfielder Kuo Tien-Hsin previously revealed that there is a 'Dragon's Den' in the right field of Tianmu Stadium, where balls hit to a certain spot are less affected by wind and can clear the fence. Chu Yu-Hsien, who hit both home runs to right field today, looked puzzled when asked by the media after the game, 'I need to ask him about that, it's the first time I've heard that explanation. Today was just a tailwind.' (Edited by Wu Su-Jou) 1150503
