Uni-President Lions were defeated 2-1 by CTBC Brothers on July 7, with controversy arising when hitter Yue Cheng-hua hit a ball that got lost in the Taipei Dome seats, affecting the umpire's decision. The team's general manager Su Tai-an expressed concern over the seat color affecting judgment, stating it could impact international game results. The color scheme designed to create a visual effect was criticized for 'eating' the ball and affecting players' judgment, leading the Lions to be the first victims. Both teams contested whether it was a home run, and the decision was upheld after video review, sparking discontent among the Lions' coach Lin Yue-ping.
