(Central News Agency reporter Lin Honghan, San Diego, 30th) Taiwanese baseball pitcher Kai-Wei Deng was promoted to the major leagues and played with the team in San Diego. Local international students came to watch the game in the rain. They were interviewed and emphasized that it is not easy to be promoted to the major leagues. Taiwan Players need to be encouraged positively and encourage people to retreat.
Kai-Wei Deng, a 25-year-old right-hand pitcher from Taichung who played for the San Francisco Giants, was promoted to the Major League Baseball on the 29th, becoming the 17th major league player in the history of Taiwanese baseball. The Giants played against the Padres today. Although it was raining before the game, there were still Taiwanese fans who came to support Deng Kaiwei despite the rain.
He Jirui and Huang Yimin are Taiwanese students at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). One wears a Giants hat and the other wears a Padres hat, but they cheer for the Taiwanese players together.
He Jirui is studying in the doctoral class of the UCSD Institute of Electrical Engineering and has supported the Giants for 10 years. He learned that Deng Kaiwei was promoted to the major leagues and came to support on the 29th. Although it rained today, he still invited Huang Yimin to watch the game and looked forward to seeing Deng Kaiwei play.
He Jirui felt aggrieved for Deng Kaiwei. Deng Kaiwei performed abnormally in last year’s Classic and received a lot of abuse on the Internet. He Jirui said that Taiwanese players need more positive voices and do not need a negative attitude towards the people.
He Jirui said that studying and living in the United States can deeply understand that the challenges faced by foreign players are not only baseball itself, but also the life and culture that have to be adapted, which is twice as difficult. He believes that it is not easy for Deng Kaiwei to reach the major leagues. Deserves more encouragement.
Huang Yimin is a student in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at UCSD. He believes that everyone has a hard time in the United States. In addition to the performance pressure of athletes, they also bear the expectations of Taiwanese people. It is not easy to be promoted to the major leagues. Today Even if it rains, we still have to come to support. (Editor: Chen Chenggong) 1130331
