Fubon Guardians pitcher Tseng Chun-Yue attended the CPBL All-Star Game press conference today, expressing his hope to face off against his in-form teammate, Yu Chang, if the opportunity arises. He also spoke about wanting to "get back up where he fell," hoping to recreate the iconic scene from the World Baseball Classic (WBC) at the Tokyo Dome during the upcoming All-Star event.
The CPBL All-Star Game will be held on July 18-19 at the Taipei Dome. Tseng represented the Guardians at today's press conference. The teams for this year's event are "TEAM STAR," determined by fan voting, and "TEAM TAIWAN," primarily composed of the roster from last year's Asia Professional Baseball Championship.
Tseng also participated in the 2023 Asia Professional Baseball Championship, but he described it as a bad memory. At the time, he ignored the fatigue accumulated over the season and tried too hard to perform, leading to poor results. However, Tseng stated, "You get back up where you fell." When he stepped into the Tokyo Dome for the WBC this year, some memories surfaced, but he told himself that three years had passed and it was a fresh start, eventually delivering a strong performance.
When asked about the scene during the WBC where Taiwanese fans sang his entrance song and lit up their phones, Tseng said it felt like being back at a home game in Taiwan and hopes to recreate that atmosphere at the All-Star Game.
Asked who he would like to face if selected for the All-Star Game, Tseng laughed and named his teammate Yu Chang. He noted that Yu has been in great form lately, joking, "Yu Chang has been so fierce lately, it's scary to watch," while wishing for him to maintain his hot streak.
