Taiwan's newest star in the major leagues 美國大聯盟最新的台灣明星
He's only 25 years old, yet he plays for one of the most famous sports teams in the world－the New York Yankees. His job is filled with enormous pressure, and millions of people watch him every time he pitches. This talented individual is Wang Chien-Ming, form Tainan.

At 190cm, Wang can be an imposing figure on the pitcher's mound. Apparently, he's a very quiet person who doesn't speak much. He always looks cool and collected. However, after his first game for the Yankees this summer, he admitted to a reporter that："Actually , I was quite nervous！" Who wouldn't be？

Wang is the second Taiwanese pitcher to make the major leagues(MLB) in America. He pitched for the Taiwanese Olympic team in Athens, and he was the Most Valuable Player for Taiwan at the 2002 Asian Games. He won an award for being the Yankees' minor league "Pitcher of the Year" in 2004；so getting a chance to pitch for the Yankees was a matter of time.

With MLB in America recruiting more and more overseas players, Taiwanese players are getting more "looks" from the scouts. Many other Taiwanese players are playing in the minor leagues now. One day we may get a chance to see more of them in action. For now, every fifth day we get to cheer Wang on！
