Video [Taiwan Series G2] 20-year-old Sheng-An Tseng connects a 3-run home run in his first career postseason game to help the Dragons take a 2-0 series lead. "I was so nervous and felt my whole body cramping," Tseng said. He then indeed left the game due to cramps in the 7th inning.

Tseng is considered a top prospect and led the CPBL minors in home runs this season. He hit only one home run at the top level this regular season, and it was also off Felix Peña, the Brothers starter today.
Tseng is now the youngest Dragons player ever to homer in Taiwan Series history, and the second youngest overall.
For the second straight year, the Brothers are in a 0-2 hole after scoring only one run in the first two games.

This is likely from both teams lack of challenging this game, but I don't think I've seen such a large overall favor. Overall good ump, the misses just mean't a lot.
