TAICHUNG, Taiwan, Nov. 4 (UPI) -- Michael Morse hit a home run and doubled in another run Friday while pacing a team of MLB players to a 6-2 victory over the Chinese Taipei national team.
The decision improved the MLB team to 3-0 in the best-of-five series, which continues Saturday and Sunday in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.
Morse, from the Washington Nationals, had a first-inning double that drove in New York Yankees' slugger Curtis Granderson. MLB went up 2-0 on an RBI fielder's choice by San Francisco third baseman Pablo Sandoval, the next batter.
Both teams scored single runs in the second and Morse made the score 4-1 in the third with a long home run to center off Chinese Taipei pitcher Kai-Wen Cheng.
Arizona's Ryan Roberts and Florida's Logan Morrison chipped in run-scoring hits in the fifth. Chinese Taipei Kuan-Wei Yang drove in the game's final run with an eighth-inning double.
