[Sports Center/Comprehensive Report] The Tigers will face the Rockies at 0:10 a.m. on the 13th, Taiwan time tomorrow. The team announced the starting line-up earlier. The 23-year-old Taiwanese monster Li Haoyu will serve as the second base of the starting pitch and guard the second base. They will face off against the 25-year-old Rockies right-hander Gabriel Hughes, who won his first major league career victory.

The Tigers will start 24-year-old fireball giant Jackson Jobe, who has 1 win and 2 losses in 6 games this season, with an ERA of 4.45. The Rockies will start Hughes, who has started 11 of 12 games this season, with a record of 0 wins and 7 losses and an ERA of 5.81.

Li Haoyu exploded with firepower against the Rockies today. He hit 3 long hits in a single game and contributed 3 RBIs, helping the Tigers defend their home court 11:7 and ending their 3rd consecutive victory. Li Haoyu played 101 games this season, accumulating 72 hits, 8 home runs, 40 RBIs, 35 runs scored, 2 stolen bases, 25 slugging hits and 115 base hits. His hitting measurements were 0.262/0.321/0.418, and his overall offensive index (OPS) was 0.739.
