Industrial Waste Found at Newly built Billion Dollar Hsinchu Baseball Stadium
#2

Plans to hold warm-up games for the national baseball team at the Hsinchu Baseball Stadium were yesterday scrapped after industrial waste was found to be buried under the turf, prompting local officials to request an investigation into the origin of the waste.

Disposed electrical cords and pieces of brick were on Thursday found at a depth of 15cm to 20cm, raising concern over player safety at the ballpark, which was reopened after renovations in July last year.

Newly elected Hsinchu Mayor Ann Kao (高虹安) of the Taiwan People’s Party yesterday said that no warm-up games for the World Baseball Classic would be held at the ballpark, which was slated to host at least one Taiwan game.
