4/19 Virus Outbreak: English-language CPBL broadcasts a ray of hope for sports fans amid coronavirus

As the COVID-19 pandemic shutters sporting events around the world, English-language broadcasts of Taiwan’s Chinese Professional Baseball League (CPBL) this week provided a lifeline to deprived sports fans, with veteran US sports commentator Keith Olbermann featuring among them.
The push to share Taiwanese baseball with a wider English-speaking audience has been led by the Eleven Sports network, the broadcaster for the Taoyuan-based Rakuten Monkeys, which has been streaming the games free of charge via its Twitter account since the season opened last weekend.
More than 1 million people on Friday tuned in to view its English-language broadcast, even though the game was played to empty stands in compliance with Taiwan’s social distancing guidelines, the network said.

and follow up we would like to introduce Uni-President Lions 



The Uni-President Lions also known as Uni-Lions (Chinese: 統一獅) is a professional baseball team based in Tainan City, Taiwan. The organization is named after the Uni-President Corporation, one of Taiwan's largest conglomerates, whose sub-company Uni-President Baseball Team Company oversees operations of the team. The Lions play their home games at Tainan Municipal Baseball Stadium in Tainan City.

The team was first established as amateur Uni-President Baseball Team (Chinese: 統一棒球隊) in 1989 for the purpose of training and preparation for eventual professionalization in the next year. The corporation originally intended to recruit players from Taipower Baseball Team, an amateur baseball team based in nearby Kaohsiung, but faced many difficulties in the process.

If you are new to CPBL and want to know more about Uni-President Lions famous player, I would suggest you start from following these 3 players
18  Pan Wei-Lun (潘威倫)



Pan Wei-lun (Chinese: 潘威倫; pinyin: Pān Wēilún; Wade–Giles: Pan1 Wei1 Lun2; born 5 March 1982 in Pingtung County, Taiwan) is a Taiwanese professional baseball pitcher for the Uni-President Lions of the Chinese Professional Baseball League (CPBL).

After brief amateur career in the Taiwan Cooperative Bank baseball team he was drafted by the Uni-President Lions of the Chinese Professional Baseball League in early 2003 and remains with this team to date. He has been considered an ace for the Lions and has also been a key member of the Chinese Taipei national baseball team since 2002.

He held the CPBL record of pitcher with the longest winning streak by scoring 21 victories between March 1, 2007 and June 18, 2008. Furthermore, he scored his first career no-hitter on July 10, 2008 against Chinatrust Whales, but failed to achieve perfect game due to a fielding error by first baseman Kao Kuo-ching.[citation needed]

He played in the All-Star Futures Game during the All-Star break in 2006, with another Taiwanese player Chin-Lung Hu. After the season ended, he competed in the 2006 Intercontinental Cup and Baseball games of 2006 Asian Games. He won the best second baseman award of 2006 Intercontinental Cup, and gold medal of Asian Games.

the 3rd one is a rising star 77 Lin An-Ko (林安可 )

77 Lin An-Ko (林安可 )

Lin is a Two-Way Player, however this season Uni-Lions Will Not Use Lin An-Ko as Two-Way Player in 2020 The 23-year-old Lin An-Ko, who is already a competent hitter, will instead focus on being an outfielder.

Although we can't find more English related blog discuss about Lin at this moment, you will see his high standard performance in the recent games. Once we have more collection, maybe write another article only for him.
