Few additional points to add: Taoyuan: The stadium was built the wrong way round as the mayer back then wanted the facade facing the junction. So the home plate was facing west instead of east. Which made the batters have to face direct sunshine in the afternoon. Also the field was layered wrong so drainage after the rain is total nightmare. Xinzhuang: The wooden concourse at the front of the stand is actually dancing stage for the cheerleaders. Tainan The photos were outdated. Now the floodlight pylons have moved from the front ofbthe stand to ths back of the stand. Also seat pads were added 2 years ago in the outfield stands.
3:35 - The CPBL lost a few teams about 20 years ago after a game fixing scandal. The league was down to four teams for about a decade before the league's credibility was restored and expanded.
Got experience of all these, done 18 baseball stadiums in Taiwan. Tainan is practically my second home, the steep stands help. It’s outdated and a new stadium is well under construction which is sad because the existing stadium has its own charm and the new one is a long way out the city. Tianmu is a nice stadium with a beautiful back drop. Hsinchu is a national embarrassment as they went to reopen it and had to postpone the third game due to the amount of issues, in total over 150 problems found and the reopening was rushed due to an election… I wish my care was taken with construction of stadiums here.
Actually since the Tianmu Stadium is the Dragons's ONLY host venue de facto, the Weichuan company did a good job for making the stadium sticked with the Dragons's theme, both interior and exterior. I went to the stadium twice on August for the regular season and October for the Game 1 of the Taiwan series, which the Dragons champs the league 5th times after 24 years. The atmosphere was amazing.🎉
Oh, and Taipei Dome (40071 seats), the first domed baseball stadium in Taiwan will be officially opened soon in December 2, 2023. Its fixed roofs may be a bit outdated for those of you in North America, but for the people of Taipei, there is an urgent need to cope with the cold and rainy winter weather.
I've seen so many games at Intercontinental.....several in Tainan....handful at Xinzhuang....handful at Tianmu....about a dozen at Dou-Liu...one in Pintung (which was my 500th different field...now up to 974)
It's actually six, the dragons have two stadiums. Also, there only used to be four teams,which is even less. Each team just has to face each other very often.
It's Taiwan's baseball league, but called itself "Chinese" at the beginning back to 1990. It's because the formal name of Taiwan is actually Republic of China. (Different from PRC). People in Taiwan nowaday prefer to call themselves Taiwan, not ROC. But the baseball league hasn't changed the name. Actually Chinese (people of PRC) don't really play baseball.
So according to your mis-titled video logic, If there is a restaurant in America with the word German or Germany in it's name it actually, is in Germany. Gotcha.
Taiwan went crazy in the WBC, their fans are incredible 🔥😮💨
That atmosphere was amazing. Wish they would've advanced

You should do the stadiums of the Australian Baseball League :D
Yes
Baseball, the king of sports ❤️⚾️
Huh, have you ever heard about cricket?
@@sayedsadnamsakey9140 Cricket is great too, but I prefer baseball

Baseball was my first love ❤️ ⚾️🔥

I live in Taiwan as an expat so I can safely say you did a pretty good job with pronunciation.
Extremely cool, niche stadium stuff
they have the Taipei Dome but it was abandoned while under construction
Not abandoned. It was halted. Now schedule to complete by the end of 2023.
@@44song thanks, didn't know the project was continued
Taipei dome has hold the first game in late 2023. It seems to be a pretty nice one!
not to be confused with CBA stadiums in mainland China
Taiwan is a great country. i highly recommend a visit.
i hope that Pooh the bear will never attack them.
Please do a video on LIDOM stadiums
so great
Could you do Quirino province Inter-Barangay League 2023 stadiums please 🙏
Day 2 of asking to do the soccer league of Costa Rica stadium 🇨🇷😎
Come on man. Where is the Slovenian Football league 1?
Many stadiums to launch man pads against Chinese jets from the roof
They all look alike. Even that 🏟 from the 1930s.
Would love for a team to be called the Taipei Personalities
I don’t love the look of the round seating, but I hear the atmosphere is unbearable to opponents, so it makes up for it for sure
Can you do IPL STADIUMS 2023 please?? 🙏
Wait. it's a league with only seven teams in it? How does that work?
Taiwan is a pretty small island despite its large population
@@FireboltPrime I get that. Doesn't really answer my question.
It's actually six, the dragons have two stadiums. Also, there only used to be four teams,which is even less. Each team just has to face each other very often.
Why hasn't Taiwan got it's own league?
It's Taiwan's baseball league, but called itself "Chinese" at the beginning back to 1990. It's because the formal name of Taiwan is actually Republic of China. (Different from PRC). People in Taiwan nowaday prefer to call themselves Taiwan, not ROC. But the baseball league hasn't changed the name.
Actually Chinese (people of PRC) don't really play baseball.
The league could make a good Asian Division if the MLB had a "TRUE" World Series with them and the Latin Countries Pro Leagues!
2026 world cup stadiums!
Dragonflied and paneled
🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼
現在還要加上大巨蛋XD
This isn't China.
Indeed. But a lot of things in Taiwan still have China in their name. Like China Steel and China Airlines.
So according to your mis-titled video logic, If there is a restaurant in America with the word German or Germany in it's name it actually, is in Germany. Gotcha.
