6 years ago - Sportingbase
According to Ralph Jennings of the Associated Press, fans are now being allowed into the stadium for professional baseball games in Taiwan. Under rules that were instituted this past weekend, 1000 spectators are permitted if they sit three seats apart and do not have a high temperature. Also, every second row at every baseball stadium in Taiwan will remain empty, just in case someone coughs.
Spectators are not allowed to eat at the ballpark and concessions are closed. In fact, all spectators are expected to wear masks. The only people in the stands without masks are cheerleaders.
The largest baseball park in Taiwan has 19,000 fans and the smallest baseball park has 11,000 fans. There are currently four teams in the Chinese Professional Baseball League. The top team is the Rakuten Monkeys, which currently have a record of 15 wins and four losses.
The other three teams in the league are all currently under the .500 mark. The Chinatrust Brothers have a record of nine wins and 11 losses. They are followed by the Fubon Guardians at eight wins and 11 losses and the Uni Lions at eight wins and 14 losses.
In Taiwan, it is common to see high scoring games. On May 12, the Monkeys beat the Lions 17-10. The 27 runs scored on Tuesday was tied for the highest-scoring game of the season. On May 2, the Monkeys beat the Brothers 16-11. In fact, there have been 20 occasions where teams have reached the double digits in runs for a particular game. The most runs scored in a game this season was 18 as the Brothers beat the Lions 18-8 on May 6.
