[Reporter Gong Naishi/Tainan Report] CITIC Brothers and Uni-President Lions had a situational drama in the first game today. Because Huang Weisheng was found to have missed the ball cleanly and requested a TV replay to assist the decision. In the end, there was still no overturn. CITIC head coach Hirano Keiichi was very angry. He walked out of the lounge and spread his hands, waving to the players on the field to go back to the lounge.
In the first inning, Zhu Jiaen hit a grounder to second base. CITIC second baseman Yue Donghua intercepted the ball and passed to first base. Huang Weisheng initially caught the ball with his glove, but due to his unstable center of gravity after extending his body, he accidentally threw the ball out of his glove. The first base umpire Qiu Jingyan determined that the catch was not confirmed and ruled SAFE. CITIC proposed a replay to assist the decision, but in the end they failed to comeback.
Hirano was very angry about the decision of not being able to overturn the game. He waved the players back to the dugout and had a heated discussion with the referee for several minutes. Even Yue Donghua came to comfort him. Finally, CITIC accepted the decision. Later, CITIC's starting pitcher Felix did not give the Lions a chance to counterattack and defended the game without losing any points.
Seeing Hirano's big move, Pan Zhongwei, the sports commentator of the broadcast unit, also exclaimed, "Wow, did he ask the players to come back? Such a big move... or did he call the referee over?" Seeing Hirano's big move in the lounge, Unified Lions head coach Lin Yueping also widened his eyes, a little surprised by what happened on the field.
