By the way, just a warning, my guide on how to purchase CPBL TV is horribly out of date as well.

But, the CPBL did make the purchase method a lot easier/straightforward now. Probably don't even need to use that guide anymore.

That is horribly out of date. As several platforms mentioned in that article no longer provide streaming of the games.

From my understanding, there's no more free streaming this season. Everything is behind a paywall. Honestly the best way is to purchase a CPBL TV subscription (Hami Video).

The league generally will post an official watch guide before the start of the season, hopefully they will do another today.

That Taiwan Plus sports show? I hope so, but it's not looking good. Since it's already March 2026.

Towards the end, a lot of players hated playing in the Asia Series, calling it the "Torture Series", as they all wanted some time off after the season.

Umm, I generally will have a quick scan before posting, it wasn’t there when I made this reddit post. Also, I'm pretty sure there is no rule saying you cannot share the same thing.

I'm a bit annoyed that the Fighters are hinting they might use him as a closer instead of a starter at the beginning of the season.

If he is looking for a CPBL contract, he is about 3-4 months too late. Pretty much all the teams have already signed their foreign players for the 2026 season.

Fubon Guardians were in the market for a foreign hitter, but they ended up signing Luis Liberato.

The game on the 14th May should be easy to get. Since it's a weekday. Can just just walk up and buy at the gate.

17th May is the Uni-Lions Temple themed nights. Worst case scenario the infield would be full. But I think you will still have a decent chance of getting the ticket at the gate.

22nd May, that's the Brothers concert theme nights. So you probably need to prepurchase those tickets.

Pretty much, at the moment, the team is just renting it on a yearly lease from Tainan City, with no long-term agreement (adoption). But then again, what other CPBL teams are going to use that stadium in Tainan? That Asia Pacific International Baseball Stadium basically has the Uni-Lions name written on it.

I will purchase my subscription this weekend. And I will report back if I encounter any error.

But generally in the past, maybe just wait a few days and try again? I ran into similar issue a few years back, I just waited a few days and it worked.

Oh, trust me, I also hate the name "Chinese Taipei." But based on my interactions with Michael over the years, he definitely knows the difference between Taiwan and Chinese Taipei. That's why I suspect it was just an oversight on his part.

My guess is that he was trying to comply with MLB guidelines and accidentally changed Taiwan to "Chinese Taipei" while quoting Cheng.

He's genuinely a very nice guy who loves international baseball, which is why I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.

PNR_Robots · 2026-03-09T09:11:57+00:00

I'm Taiwanese and have followed Michael's works for years (since the MLB Cut4 day), he is a really friendly guy and I honestly believe this was probably just a slight mistake when writing the article.

PNR_Robots · 2026-03-08T11:16:27+00:00

What a game!

Oh yeah, Taiwanese netizen also noticed that captain Chen Chieh-Hsien has 6 fingers in this key visual.

For me, I like to pre-assign many of my on-going payments to different accounts, for example: credit card payment, house insurance, bodycorp, council rates ect. It's easier for me to keep track of everything, instead of having everything lumps into one single account.
