3/24 Result

The Lions beat the Elephants 3-1 in Chiayi due to some strong pitching and clutch hitting. Wang Jing-Ming threw six innings of one run ball to get the win in his CPBL debut. Marshall McDougall hit his second home run of the season while Wang Song-Xian went 3 for 3 with an RBI.

Hurler Orlando Roman picked up the loss in his first CPBL start since 2007, when he was a member of the China Trust Whales.

On a side note, it looks like the Elephants released Ryan Murphy (unconfirmed) to free up a roster spot for Roman. Murphy gave up four runs over 3 1/3 innings in Sunday's loss to the Lions. This was his only CPBL appearance.
