針對Lamigo桃猿總教練洪一中責罵義大犀牛外籍教練「帶來什麼棒球文化?」義大犀牛打擊教練大威今天(8日)反駁,並無指示投手投出故意觸身球,但也不會在大比分領先時下戰術,他說:「我們不會在場中指著對手球員罵,這才是板凳清空的主因。」
桃猿林泓育7日6局上單場2次觸身球,引發桃猿及義大兩隊板凳球員清空,洪一中賽後生氣的說:「顯然是故意砸人,這是什麼棒球文化,前5局領先7分不能盜壘、下戰術嗎?」

義大犀牛打擊教練大威今天在個人臉書粉絲團貼文,說明並未指示投手故意去砸林泓育,也不會這樣做,他很懷疑洪一中會不會打棒球,看不看得懂棒球,更要讓了解棒球的人,知道什麼是棒球的「潛規則」。
大威除了在臉書上貼文,更說明為什麼板凳會清空?他表示,自己的小孩自己教,不管什麼原因,教練都不要上場指著對方的球員罵,這會引起板凳清空,「我們也不會板凳清空,但為了保護自己的球員,」教練應該去跟裁判及對方教練溝通。
他表示,通常在大比分領先時,不管是第幾局都不會下達戰術,包括短打或盜壘,這才是正確的,不會要球員進行任何作戰,「不管我在台灣會待多久,我都還是會這樣教導球員。」
大威在臉書上貼文如下:「You know, I have a very good friend that is from Taiwan, obviously he speaks Chinese and reads the newspaper. He told me that the GM from Lamigo said that I bring the wrong baseball culture to Taiwan. I'm going to respond to that to the people who want to know baseball and the hidden rules in it. I doubt the GM played baseball so he probably has no clue. He and those who claim this forgets that the game of baseball was invented in the USA! A situation in yesterday's game almost caught a disturbance with the players. They bunted what a seven run lead late in the game and that pissed off several of the Rhino players.
They claim that out manager called for our pitcher to hit #11. We're more professional than that to "order" a pitcher to throw at a hitter but the players took the situation into their own hands because we manage and coach the game the right way! Then for their manager run out on the field and start screaming at OUR player was as about as unprofessional and weak as you can get!
They've done things like steal a base with a six run lead in the late innings a couple of times to I guess try to run up the score and embarrass the players. You just don't do that. It's called baseball integrity and that's not playing with protecting the game and proper sportsmanship! You will NEVER see our players do that because we respect the dam game! To all of you young players, coaches and all who strive to make the CPBL one of the respected leagues in professional baseball around the world, teach the kids about playing right! For however long I'll be in Taiwan coaching baseball, I will help command that our players play the game hard and with respect to the game!」
