Pregame Press Conference

Q. We heard Li Haoyu is out of the roster. And this happened the day before the opening game, and I guess that your entire team are disappointed. So how do you maintain your emotion right now?

NIEN-TING WU: Yes, he got hurt when he swing and miss day before yesterday's game in Miyazaki. Since then we all knew that he got hurt on his rib.

So he's a very solid player but we are trying to focus on what we can do as one team to represent Chinese Taipei.

Q. Tell us about Wu Nien-Ting. He has experience in the previous tournament, and he also was the member of the winning Premier12. So he's quite a player for your Chinese Taipei team.

NIEN-TING WU: Yes, he has a great experience and each different international by the time or WBC or Premier12 all has different stories, and we all know we are supported by the Chinese Taipei country, and we are currently focusing on opening game which starts in a couple hours.

We will try to hustle and we will try to put it all out there and we are ready for the four games from today.
