(Central News Agency reporter Hsieh Ching-wen, Taipei, 3rd) TSG Hawks infielder Wang Bo-xuan had a slow start to the Chinese Professional Baseball League (CPBL) season and was previously sent to the minor league for adjustment. He revealed that he has had a similar trait since college, performing exceptionally well starting in May. He joked that with new pants in May, everything feels new, and he faces challenges with positive energy.
Wang Bo-xuan's performance at the start of the season was not as expected. He was sent to the minor league for adjustment on April 18 and returned to the first team on April 28. Before today's game, he had already hit 3 singles in 3 games since returning to the first team, raising his batting average above 20%, to 21.7%.
Hawks manager Hung I-chung chuckled, saying that Wang Bo-xuan seems to be in a similar situation almost every season, with a batting average in the 10s at the start of the season, gradually climbing to nearly 30% by the end of the year.
Wang Bo-xuan said that when his condition was not ideal at the start of the season, he was mentally prepared for a possible minor league adjustment. In the first team, because his condition was not ideal, he spent most of his time preparing. Going down to the minor league was also a break, where he would ask more questions of teammates, senior players, and coaches, as everyone might see different problems, and he tried more things through practice.
Wang Bo-xuan revealed that the slow-starting situation did not happen only after he entered professional baseball; it has existed since college. The college league season usually runs from December to January or February of the following year, and he would not play well in the college league, but he would play exceptionally well in the spring league held from March to May.
Wang Bo-xuan chuckled, saying he doesn't know why he has such a "seasonality." Knowing he has a slow start to the season, he used to be very eager for success. After 1 or 2 weeks without improvement, he would become more and more concerned, and his performance and mindset were intertwined, eventually making it difficult to get out of the slump.
Wang Bo-xuan said that his mental preparation this year is also different. His roommate Chen Wen-chieh encourages him, telling him he has no problem and giving him positive energy. Although it's still a bit difficult not to care, starting in May, a new month, everything is new, and he also replaced his old torn pants, hoping for a fresh start. (Editor: Chang Ya-ching) 1150503
