Outfielder Lin Shu-yi, who was promoted to the first team after transferring to the Fubon Guardians, hit a go-ahead triple in the 7th inning against his former team, the CTBC Brothers, helping his team secure a 4-2 victory and earning MVP honors. Lin joined the CTBC Brothers in the 2016 draft but was not retained after last season, leading to his move to the Guardians. Lin stated, "We are friends off the field, but there are no friends on the field." He expressed gratitude for his time with the Brothers and shared how advice from teammate Liu Shih-hao helped him overcome the pressure of transferring. When talking about his wife's support, Lin choked up, saying, "My wife told me it didn't matter where I went, she would take care of the home. I want to work hard and show them my performance when we return to Kaohsiung."
