Central News Agency (Reporter Su Chih-she, Taipei 13th) The Chinese Professional Baseball League's Rakuten Monkeys today secured a 3-1 victory against the TSG Hawks, relying on pitcher Kyle Marman's excellent 7-inning, 1-run performance and capitalizing on opponent errors to score 3 runs in the top of the 6th inning. Hawks starting pitcher Huang Tzu-Peng, despite pitching 7 innings and allowing 3 runs, none of which were earned, suffered a tragic loss.

Then, Lin Hung-yu drew a walk, loading the bases. Chen Chia-le hit a single to tie the score, and Liu Tzu-chieh and Sung Chia-hsiang followed with sacrifice flies, each adding a run to take the lead.
