Uni-President Lions is currently competing for the first-half championship in the Chinese Professional Baseball League (CPBL). Despite being the top of the league standings, they faced a five-game losing streak before a game on June 16. The Lions made changes in their pitching coaching staff and manager Lin Yueh-Ping explained the strategy of assigning strong reliever Blake despite a significant lead of 11-2, hoping to inspire local pitchers. The team's pitching has struggled recently, even when starting pitchers perform well, leading to multiple blown saves by the bullpen. These changes aim to contribute to the team's success and provide opportunities for local talents.
