Wei-Chieh Huang burst onto the prospect scene last year while pitching for the Kane County Cougars and has been hit hard this year in Visalia. This time, he was able to limit damage despite a lack of strong command. Huang was on the winning end of a pitcher's duel before late fireworks cemented his win.
