Chinatrust Brothers (4-6) at Uni-President Lions (5-6), April 29th
Projected Starters
LHP Huang En-Sih (0-0, 4.50 ERA) vs RHP Donn Roach (1-1, 9.31 ERA)
Game Preview
The Lions enter the series on a high note, having climbed into second place after handing the Rakuten Monkeys their first two losses of the season over the weekend. Meanwhile, the Brothers are reeling from the loss of star hitter Lin Chih-Sheng, who fractured his finger in a home-plate collision in a loss to the Fubon Guardians on Sunday. The Brothers turn to second-year lefty Huang En-Sih as they look to get back into the win column. The 23-year-old struggled to a 7.47 ERA in his 68.2-inning debut last season but struck out seven in six innings in his only start of this campaign. American righty Donn Roach will take the hill for the Lions. He has 39 innings of major-league experience to his name but hasn't pitched at that level since 2016. Since then, he's pitched in Japan and South Korea before returning to the United States, where he remained stuck at the Triple-A level. He's failed to impress in his first two starts in Taiwan, posting a 9.31 ERA and a 2.07 WHIP.

Top Picks
Wang Wei-Chen, Brothers: The speedy leadoff man is a good bet to kickstart any rallies by the Brothers in this contest. He's already scored eight runs in 10 games this season while stealing four bases.
Kuo Fu-Lin, Lions: Kuo has been on a tear over his last two games, grabbing five hits, including two homers in Sunday's win over the Monkeys. He's hitting .367 and slugging .633 through his first 10 games of the season.
Chan Tzu-Hsien, Brothers: Chan is the most expensive hitter in the contest at 15 credits, but his performances have been worthy of a high price this far. The Brothers' cleanup bat has managed a pair of hits in each of his last three games.
Yueh Tung-Hua, Brothers: The Brothers' number two hitter comes in at a relatively cheap 9.5 credits. He's started the season well, hitting .333 with a .415 on-base percentage.
