Brothers win third straight but manager sees flaws

The CTBC Brothers continued their winning streak with a decisive 10-2 victory over the TSG Eagles, powered by a strong offensive performance that produced 18 hits. This marks their third consecutive win, with players like Tseng Sung-en and Huang Wei-sheng delivering multiple hits. Huang Wei-sheng, in particular, has maintained his hot streak after earning MVP honors the previous day.

However, manager Eichi Hirano stressed that the team must not overlook persistent errors despite the string of victories. He emphasized the need for players to confront and rectify these flaws. "We still see misses and repeated failures in these three games," Hirano stated, urging players to face these imperfections and improve.

Hirano specifically called out third baseman Chang Shih-lun's struggles with fly balls. While acknowledging Chang's overall improvement in handling fly balls, Hirano pointed to a specific error on a foul ball as a result of a bad habit. "This is his bad habit: he keeps looking at the distance to the wall when catching a foul ball, which causes his vision to shift," Hirano explained. He noted that Chang is becoming more familiar with the spin of third-base fly balls but needs to correct this ingrained behavior to avoid future mistakes.
