Dragons' Chen Szu-Hao and Two Others Travel with Team for Hualien Series; Tseng Jen-Ho Sent to Minors

Central News Agency (CNA reporter Su Chih-she, Taipei, 17th) — New faces appeared with the Chinese Professional Baseball League's Wei Chuan Dragons today, as Chen Yu-Hsun, Chen Szu-Hao, and Hsu Po-Hung are traveling with the team. Additionally, yesterday's starting pitcher Tseng Jen-Ho has been sent down to the minor leagues, while infielder Neng-Ju Yiu has been called up to the first team and will start at second base, batting second. Head coach Yeh Chun-Chang stated that considering the team's upcoming series in Hualien, they are bringing the three players along to handle any unexpected situations. Tseng Jen-Ho's move is part of a rotational adjustment for the first half of the season, where he will 'make one start, then go to the minors for one start.' 'From a statistical perspective, his starts have been a great help to the team, but it's only been two starts, so we need to observe more,' Yeh said. Chen Yu-Hsun has pitched 8 innings in the minor leagues this year with a 2.25 ERA and a 0.88 WHIP, and his ERA was around 1 for a period. Yeh revealed that the pitching coach had previously thought Chen could be called up, but he was sidelined by a stiff neck and rested. Therefore, they want to observe him for a few more games. 'He has experience in the bullpen, which we can make good use of at this stage,' Yeh added.
