Biographical Information

Wen-Ming Huang played for the Taiwanese national team and in the CPBL.

Huang was a third-string catcher in the 1991 Intercontinental Cup. He was retired by South Korea's Hong-jip Kim his first time up. His first hit was off France's Vincent Lhoste. He had a pinch-hit single off Epifanio Pérez in the 13-inning Bronze Medal Game loss to Nicaragua. He finished the event 3-for-7 with a double, two runs and a RBI, backing up Chi-Hsin Chen and Kun-Hong Pai at catcher and Cheng-Hsien Chang at DH. He had eight putouts, an assist and no errors and no one tried to steal against him. He was on the Jungo Bears in the 1993 CPBL, their first season. He hit .248/.313/.347 in 52 games, backing up Pai. He threw out 4 of 8 who tried to steal, handling 41 chances error-free (he was used mostly as a DH or PH, apparently, only getting ten games in the field). He was a coach in the TML in 1997 and 1998 with the Chianan Luka. He later coached National Tsing Hua University.
