On the day after Hong-Chih Kuo hit the first major league home run by a Taiwanese-born player, the big hit was still making news around the world. In Taiwan, accounts of the home run appeared on the front page of all major newspapers and led prime-time newscasts, according to Rex Lin, who grew up in South Pasadena and now lives in Taipei. In the clubhouse, as Takashi Saito giddily mimicked Kuo's bat flip, Kuo learned his batting helmet was bound for the Hall of Fame. "That's pretty awesome," Kuo said. After the game, Kuo said he had not hit a home run since high school. Turns out he hit one last year — a grand slam, in fact — at triple-A Las Vegas. "Oh, yeah," he said. "I didn't remember that. I'm a pitcher. You don't get to hit very often. You always bunt." http://www.latimes.com/sports/baseball/mlb/la-sp-dodrep14jun14,1,544114.story?coll=la-headlines-sports-majorbaseb --
