Wednesday, May 13, 6:35 AM EDT
Projected Starters
RHP Liao Yi-Chung (1-1, 7-71 ERA) vs RHP Bryan Woodall (1-2, 9.35 ERA)
Game Preview
This matchup includes a pair of teams struggling to stay within striking distance of the streaking Monkeys, who have opened up a 6.5-game lead at the top of the CPBL's first half standings. Both sides will send out a shaky starting pitcher in this battle for second place. 24-year-old Liao Yi-Chung takes the mound for the Brothers. After posting a respectable 4.36 ERA as a rookie, he's struggled to a 7.71 mark this season, striking out just 14.7 percent of opposing batters. The Guardians will turn to veteran American right-hander Bryan Woodall. He appeared to be turning a corner with decent outings in his third and fourth appearances of the season before being blasted for five runs in 2.2 innings his last time out against the Monkeys.

Top Picks
Su Wei-Ta, Brothers: Su has seen his price rise to match his performance level, but he's still a worthy investment even at 16 credits. The first baseman has seven hits in his last five games, scoring seven times and driving in seven runs.
Wang Wei-Chen, Brothers: The Brothers' leadoff man makes for another strong captaincy candidate. As usual, he's hit for minimal power, but it's hard to complain about his .370 batting average or 18 runs scored through 20 games.
Kao Kuo-Lin, Guardians: Kao could be the strongest captain choice for the Guardians this game. He was mostly a part-time player prior to this season but has now taken over as the Guardians' cleanup hitter, hitting five runs and slugging .745 through 16 games.
Wu Tung-Jung, Brothers: Wu makes for a solid budget choice as long as he's batting near the top of the Brothers' lineup. He's hitting .341/.400/.585 in 14 games this season.
