All-Time Taiwan Players

I found this on the main Taiwan baseball website (in Chinese; I
translated the names for all here).  It's their selection of the 20
best hitters, all time.  I think you'll see that there are some
curious inclusions.  Since some of these stats were obviously
compiled in only one season, I've found a number of one-season stats
from the 2002, 2003 and 2004 seasons that beat those
ridiculous .259,.279 and .291 entries.

Format will be Name – ABs – H – 2b – 3b – HR – BB – K – Avg  (no
positions were given, nor was there any data of year[s] or steals
included in the stats)

1. HUI Han-chou – 1,048 – 253 – 45 – 0 – 29 – 134 – 182 - .371
2. CHEN Lie-hung –  770 – 193 –  34 – 1 – 14 – 100 – 130 - .382
3. CHIU Ch'ang-jung – 480 – 109 – 19 – 0 – 13 – 45 – 113 - .322
4. CHEN Chin-feng – 363 – 103 – 23 – 1 – 23 – 53 – 61 - .430
5. CHANG T'ai-shan – 334 – 93 – 16 – 1 – 16 – 22 – 44 - .344
6. P'ENG Lien-min – 430 – 93 – 19 – 3 – 18 – 80 – 98 - .406
7. LI Chih-chieh – 435 – 89 – 21 – 1 – 6 – 59 – 76 - .345
8. CHUNG I-huang – 332 – 89 – 12 – 3 – 6 – 37 – 26 - .382
9. P'AN I-sung – 280 – 72 – 11 – 1 – 5 – 9 – 53 - .291
10. CHEN Chien-hui – 311 – 71 – 14 – 3 – 3 – 41 – 51 - .360
11. WANG Ch'uan-chia – 299 – 70 – 15 – 1 – 9 – 39 – 53 - .365
12. CHEN Kuan-jen – 227 – 68 – 17 – 2 – 7 – 18 – 23 - .379
13. HUANG K'uei-yu – 244 – 56 – 10 – 3 – 9 – 26 – 52 - .336
14. CHEN Huai-shan – 237 – 51 – 5 – 2 – 0 – 21 – 45 - .308
15. WANG Chin-yung – 170 – 42 – 12 – 1 – 6 – 14 – 26 - .329
16. WANG Chun-wen – 163 – 40 – 3 – 1 – 2 – 15 – 31 - .344
17. CHEN Jui-ch'ang – 165 – 35 – 7 – 0 – 5 – 17 – 29 - .317
18. LIN Hung-yuan – 189 – 35 – 7 – 0 – 5 – 14 – 24 - .259
19. LIN Chih-sheng – 97 – 21 – 2 – 0 – 4 – 9 – 20 - .309
20. CHEN Chih-yuan – 61 – 18 – 4 – 0 – 0 – 3 – 15 - .344

Dear Rob:

This is an article I had wrote for the Emil Rothe Chapter Newsletter. I am working on the second half of it now. I am not sure if it is what you are looking for. I do have images to go with it.:





We are going back to Japan in July and will tour from one ball park to the next. I still have that card that you wanted. Do you still want it?

I collect stats from pro baseball leagues around the world.  I use them to create player cards (we refer to them as discs because they are round shape) for use in an old-time baseball game that was originally known as Ethan Allen All Star Baseball.  Allen was an active major leaguer at the time he developed and marketed the game.  It later became known as Cadaco All Star Baseball.  It was in production, with new player discs, every year from 1941 through 1993!  It was issued again twice in the last few years but had few buyers.  We do have a "neighbor" Yahoo group for the game with over 200 members, many of whom, like myself, have been with the game since the very first edition or shortly after.
 
Anyway, I have the stats from Japan, Taiwan and Korea.  The Japanese stats are easy enough to come by, in English, on the internet.  Not so for the Korean stats, at least not in English, but I am fortunate in being able to deal with the language aspects of both the Taiwan and Korea baseball stats websites, as well as the Japanese sites for needed info that's not available in English.

I would like the best of two worlds; info and stats on
Asian baseball, and historical and informative
articles.
I would like to contribute, but I would need time to
do some research, so I have no idea of exactly when I
could contribute.

I collect stats from pro baseball leagues around the world.  I use them to create player cards (we refer to them as discs because they are round shape) for use in an old-time baseball game that was originally known as Ethan Allen All Star Baseball.  Allen was an active major leaguer at the time he developed and marketed the game.  It later became known as Cadaco All Star Baseball.  It was in production, with new player discs, every year from 1941 through 1993!  It was issued again twice in the last few years but had few buyers.  We do have a "neighbor" Yahoo group for the game with over 200 members, many of whom, like myself, have been with the game since the very first edition or shortly after.
 
Anyway, I have the stats from Japan, Taiwan and Korea.  The Japanese stats are easy enough to come by, in English, on the internet.  Not so for the Korean stats, at least not in English, but I am fortunate in being able to deal with the language aspects of both the Taiwan and Korea baseball stats websites, as well as the Japanese sites for needed info that's not available in English.

A piece on your experience as a coach in China would be awesome.  We are releasing the next newsletter in early May, but if you want to shoot for the Fall newsletter that would be fine too.

We are starting to put together the first issue of the new

To refresh your memory, the new newsletter will be designed more

We are looking for writers. Articles can be on anythingthing about
Asian baseball -- Bios of asian players, commentarries on the state
of the game, statistical studies, book reviews. We especially are
interested in updates of current research projects. Articles can,
and should, be republished elsewhere after appearing in the

If you would like to write for this newsletter or the next please

When's the deadline?  I coached the Shanghai Dragons in '92 or so, and if I can find my notes I can do a piece.  It'll be original, not mere rcycled material. I taught Western Studies/Media Studies at Jaotong University and there was an opening for a baseball coach and...

I would like the best of two worlds; info and stats on
Asian baseball, and historical and informative
articles.
I would like to contribute, but I would need time to
do some research, so I have no idea of exactly when I
could contribute.

Alberto,
 
This is the link to the forum where you submit membership request:
 
 
Be aware, though, as I just explained to Rod, you won't find Asian stats there.  I'm probably the only one of the 200+ members with Asian baseball as the primary interest.  As I complete them, I do make my disc sets available to the members who might want them. 
 
For the 2006 season, I have completed Japan, am working on Taiwan and then have Korea left.  For Japan, I make one set for the top hitters and pitchers for each league and then a set for both league champs.  For Taiwan and Korea, I similarly make an all star set and then a set for the first and second place teams.
 
Gene

Rob:

Japan Times Jack Gallagher says if SABR is going to
take it verbatim, then  they should say
republished with the permission of The Japan Times.
If this is on website, Gallagher advises them to link
it to the JT site so that people can see  all of the

Scott,
 
That's fascinating.  I assume you studied Chinese before you went.  I was trained in Mandarin, Japanese and Burmese. 
 
The baseball website for the Chinese pro baseball league is a real bear.  Pages take forever to load, and I've never been able to complete the registration process.  Do you by any chance have access to complete stats from the 2006 season?
 
Gene

Below are links to Robert Whiting's very interesting articles on the future of Japanese baseball.

The future of Japanese baseball would make an ideal theme for either this newsletter or the next one. 

After reading these articles, would anybody like to write a piece commenting on what Bob's has to say?  We could include 4-5 such pieces along with Bob's articles in the newsletter.  I would especially like to hear the views of some native Japanese.  I would be happy to help anybody with editing to reduce the amount of time needed to create a newsletter article.

Asian Baseball Scholar to Speak Here April 19

Released: 4/9/2007

 

    Rob Fitts, an historian on Japanese baseball and culture, will speak on Thursday, April 19, at SUNY Cortland.

 

    Fitts will deliver a two-hour presentation titled “An Oral History of Japanese Baseball” at 2:30 p.m. in Studio West, Room 101. Presented by the SUNY Cortland Sport Management Club, the talk is free and open to the public.

 

    Fitts, who chairs the Society of American Baseball Research (SABR)’s Asian Baseball Research Committee, received his B.A. in history and anthropology from the University of Pennsylvania and his M.A. and Ph.D. from Brown University. He has written numerous articles on Japanese baseball and culture.

 

    Following his presentation, Fitts will sign copies of his book, Remembering Japanese Baseball: An Oral History of the Game, for which he received the 2005 Sporting News-SABR Baseball Research Award. Signed copies can be purchased for $20.

 

    Fitts, who lives in New York City, is president of Rob’s Japanese Baseball Cards, which sells cards, autographs, and memorabilia associated with Japanese baseball. Baseball cards and other items from his store will also be available for purchase at the event.

 

    In 2006, David Snyder, an associate professor in SUNY Cortland’s Sport Management Department and the vice chair of SABR’s Asian Baseball Committee, was named editor-in-chief of the committee's official newsletter, the Asian Baseball Newsletter. With encouragement from Fitts and the committee, Snyder created opportunities for students to help produce the newsletter.

 

    Fitts’ appearance corresponds with research presentations to be given by several SUNY Cortland students during the College’s Scholars’ Day on Wednesday, April 18. The students will discuss their part in the newsletter production.

 

    The lecture is partially funded through a Campus Artist and Lecture Series grant. For more information, contact Snyder at (607) 753-5504 or by e-mail at snyderd@....

EDITORIAL

Dark cloud over baseball

 

An investigative committee has found that the Seibu Lions, a Pacific League baseball club, paid from 100,000 yen to 10 million yen to 170 managers and others affiliated with amateur baseball teams for 27 years until 2005 as rewards for helping the pro baseball team acquire new players. The revelation of organized improper conduct of this nature over a long period is a huge blot on the worlds of both professional and amateur baseball.

 

(snip)

 

The report cites a Seibu Lions official in charge of scouting as saying, "I feel that other clubs are doing similar things; therefore, we cannot afford to fall behind them." This is a grave statement that casts a dark cloud over Japan's professional and amateur baseball. A pro baseball scout is reported to have said that some people in amateur baseball teams demanded cash gifts. It goes without saying that those who made the payments are to blame. But those who received the payments should be blamed, too, for violating the Japan Students Baseball Association's charter, which forbids providing or receiving cash gifts.
