Kuo Tien-hsin Extends Consecutive Stolen Base Streak to 22, Setting a New CPBL Record

Wei Chuan Dragons outfielder Kuo Tien-hsin successfully stole a base in the bottom of the first inning today, achieving 22 consecutive stolen bases across seasons, breaking the Chinese Professional Baseball record. This also brings his career total stolen bases to 90.

The Dragons played against the CTBC Brothers at Tianmu Baseball Stadium today. Kuo Tien-hsin, batting first, hit a single and quickly attempted a stolen base. The game was briefly paused, and Kuo removed the second base bag for the team to keep as a memento of this historic moment.

Kuo has not failed a stolen base attempt since May 23 last year, breaking the previous league record of 21 consecutive stolen bases set by Chen Jui-chen between 1998 and 1999, which was 26 years and 193 days ago. (Edited by Hsieh Ya-chu) April 17, 115
