The Fubon Guardians' farm team scored a big win over the CTBC Brothers' farm team in a game called early due to rain — good news for the Guardians' rookies and their new import pitcher.

• Fubon's No. 1 draft pick, Liu Cheng-yu, homered off the Brothers' 22-year-old right-hander Lu Meng-yang in his very first plate appearance for his first career farm-league home run, helping the team open the scoring.

• Liu went 2-for-2 with a walk, reaching base every time up, and raised his batting average to .221.

• Fubon's new import pitcher, Harleigh, started and threw three scoreless innings with four strikeouts, at one point retiring seven batters in a row to show his dominance.

• The Brothers' Lu Meng-yang pitched four innings, giving up seven hits and six runs, taking his fifth loss of the season and pushing his ERA up to 5.98.

Outlook: The game was ruled complete after five innings due to heavy rain, with the Fubon farm team taking the win 6-1.
