La New’s Chen Feng-Ming Wins Gold Glove at Catcher

November 7th, 2007 Jackson · 3 Comments

Catcher Chen Feng-Ming, the official CBPL player of the EWC, was awarded the league’s gold glove award for the second consecutive year. Congrats to Chen, whose stellar defense behind the plate mitigated an, er, less than stellar .206 batting average. A full list of the 2007 CPBL award winners can be seen at the always invaluable Taiwan Baseball.

As an added bonus, for those tens of thousands or readers who have been feverishly clamoring to see what EWC writer Jackson Broder looks like, here is a youtube clip of him at Chen Feng-Ming’s wedding banquet in his first of several national TV appearances in Taiwan, accompanied by his significant (ly better looking than he is) other, wife, the lovely Chen Pi Chen.

    Didn’t they get angry you snuck in just so you could eat free food?

    I got some dirty looks. But the raw chicken feet and apple cider were well worth it.

    yeah, significantly looking is quite correct.

    Also, don’t you just love how at the end the reporter HAS to add a piece of commentary like “hopefully Chen’s parents will have grandchildren by next year?”

    I mean, now he’s got to go deep BOTh at home and on the field.
