[Reporter Xu Zhengyang/Kaohsiung Report] After joining Taigang through the expanded draft, Zhang Xikai changed his back number from 16 to 47. He said that his intention was to pay tribute to Liao Yucheng, who is also an undercut pitcher. Lost to Liao Yucheng's grades.

Zhang Xikai used No. 61 and then changed to No. 16 at Lotte Taoyuan. When he came to Taigang, because No. 16 was already used, he took advantage of the opportunity and changed to No. 47, which was used by idols. "I asked him to practice with him after the season. It’s not a big problem, but it taught me a lot.”

Zhang Xikai had problems with ball control last year, and he stayed in the Second Army for the whole season. He revealed that when he had the most exaggerated ball control, he could throw the ball to the next lane even in one of the two bullpens. Feeling good, not even bullpen."

After Zhang Xikai came to Taigang, he was looking forward to accepting the guidance of pitching coach Hisunori Yokota, "I know Liao Yucheng was transferred by him, and he should have some thoughts about me. I just give myself to him completely."
