Uni-President Lions (7-13) at Fubon Guardians (8-10)
Sunday, May 10, 5:05 AM EDT
Projected Starters
RHP Shi Tzu-Chien (2-1, 4.50 ERA) vs RHP Yu Ting-Wei (1-0, 6.30 ERA)
Game Preview
The Lions just keep losing, dropping their sixth straight game after falling to the Guardians 7-4 on Saturday. They'll turn to fourth-year pitcher Shi Tzu-Chien as they attempt to avoid a sweep. After struggling to a 6.42 ERA in 96.2 innings last season, he's been decent enough this year, recording a 4.50 through three starts. He's walked just one batter all season. His counterpart for the Guardians will be 22-year-old Yu Ting-Wei. Yu recorded a respectable 4.47 ERA in 44.1 innings as a rookie last year but has allowed seven runs in 10 innings thus far this year. Walks have been a major problem, as he's walked 22 percent of opposing batters through his first two starts.

Top Picks
Yu Ting-Wei, Guardians: The pitcher choice in this contest isn't an easy one. Shi Tzu-Chien has been the better arm early this season, but Yu was better over a larger sample last year. He also comes 2.5 credits cheaper and gets to face a Lions team that's been slumping lately.
Lin Yi-Chuan, Guardians: The first baseman has been on fire lately while occupying a key spot in the heart of the Guardians' lineup. He's grabbed nine hits in his last five games, recording three home runs, 10 RBI and six runs over that stretch.
Kuo Fu-Lin, Lions: Kuo may be the captain of choice for a Lions-heavy lineup in this game. He's recorded a hit in seven straight contests and in 10 of his last 11 games, homering six times over that stretch to bring his slugging percentage up to an excellent .810.
Kao Kuo-Lin, Guardians: At just 8.5 credits, Kao is a key part of any Guardians-centric lineup and is worth an inclusion regardless of which team you're predicting will win this contest. He has 12 hits in his last five games, giving him a .392 batting average on the season.
