Why It Matters
Since 2010, CITIC Brothers has been continuously appointed as the G1 starter of the Taiwan Competition by Foreign Investment, which has reached 11 times so far.

[Reporter Gong Naijie/Reporting from Taipei] The Taiwanese Competition will stage the first "Dragon-Elephant Battle" in the history. The first game will almost certainly be a duel between the foreign starters. If it comes true, the brothers will have foreign players carry the Taiwanese Game G1 starter for the 12th consecutive time, setting the longest record in the history of the league.
Counting from 2010, when the brothers were together, CITIC Brothers has been carried by McGlone, Cody, Clarty, Wu Duo (twice), Nuvilla, Rogers, DePaula (three times), and Rogo respectively for 11 consecutive games. This year, it is no surprise that foreign investment will start and carry the team, which is expected to set a league record of 12 consecutive games. The last time a local player started G1 in the Taiwanese competition dates back to 2009 when Liao Yucheng.

Before CITIC broke the record, the longest consecutive G1 starting team in the past was the Peach Monkeys. Since 2011, they have been carried by Rui, Luo Li, Taiba, Mingxing, Shibowei, Kern III, Liz, Kuangwei, Wei Nengdi, and Mo Shenle for 10 consecutive times. Like CITIC, the record is still continuing.
The Wei Quan Dragons' rotation defensive rating in this year's regular season is only 2.54, second only to the 2.42 of the Unified Lions in 1995 in the history of secondary school. The Dragons have a super rotation, and it is no surprise that a foreign investment will start G1. Last time, the Dragons unexpectedly selected Xu Ruoxi to carry G1 in the 2023 Taiwan Competition, becoming the second local pitcher in team history since Huang Pingyang in 1991. This year, they return to the foreign pitching showdown.
