⚾ Baseball | 2024 WBSC Premier 12 Baseball Tornament

Yes, it’s unfortunate they’re slashing the prize fund for athletic achievements in half.

I’m happy for the Amis, and grateful for their contributions, but where is 99.5 percent of the population?

Candid postgame BBQ.

Blue-whites want to slash the athletics budget. Might be the end of the analytics group. Sigh. @hansioux you have any latest news on that?

Anybody know what Pan is talking about here? What does 投手比較常對決的位置 mean?

Probably which location the pitcher likes to place his out pitch.

Is Iyang his given name or surname?

I’m trying to find some analysis of the HRs against Korea. Can’t find any. Everything is about Shosei Togo.

I think this tourney may have cured Taiwan of its little brother complex vs Korea.

Pan is Pangcah, so usually he would have a given name and a house name. Iyang is his given name.

Interestingly, Iyang is listed as a male given name for the Atayal and Truku peoples, but not as an Amis name.

Aciyang, Aliyang, and Siyang are male given names for the Kavalan people. Kusiyang, Maliyang,Samiyang, Siyang, and Usiyang are listed as Puyuma male given names. There are a couple other names that end with Iyang as well.

I wonder if that means Pan’s name is related or inspired by Atayal or Truku names, a shortened nickname for one of those longer names, or if the Council of Indigenous Peoples’ document simply failed to record Iyang as a Pangcah name.

Cool!

Jiang is back! And he’s throwing 93-95, faster than he the 92-93 in 2023. He can contribute in the Premier 12 2027.

If he manages to stay healthy, that’s a miracle recovery.
