Wang Earns a ND...

MLB:
Chien-Ming Wang had difficulty finding the strike zone on Sat. versus the Giants and ended up with a ND after relievers Myers and Bruney were unable to hold on to a 4-3 lead in the 7th inning. Wang was partly to blame as well - entering the 7th inning with a 4-2 lead - he allowed a solo HR and a single before being pulled. Of the 86 pitches Wang threw, only 46 were called strikes. Wang pitched 6.1 innings, allowing 4 runs on 6 hits - he had 2 walks and 0 K's. The Giants would eventually come out on top with a 6-5 win that lasted 13 innings. The ND snaps Wang's 4 game win-streak. Box/Recap

Wang didn't have his best stuff yesterday but still had a chance to win. I've seen Myers blow game after game for Wang and the Yankee bullpen in general is very weak.

So, after all the buzz about how many Wang fans would show up waving flags at Pac Bell, I only saw one of two. The game was broadcasted by Fox and they didn't really show anybody. I know Fox (since it's owned by Murdoch) is very pro China so maybe it has something to do with not showing any Taiwanese supporters? I don't know, maybe I'm just thinking too much.

I think there were a lot of Taiwanese fans at the game, but like u said, there wasn't too much airtime given to Wang's supporters. Here's a good photo of some proud flag-waving fans at the game: http://news.yam.com/news_photo/cna/images/
