Taipei, Dec. 2 (CNA) Former New York Yankees pitcher Chien-Ming Wang (王建民) of Taiwan said after a training camp session in Taipei Saturday that he feels that coaching players is even tougher than learning how to pitch.

The 37-year-old right-hander, who helped train local players in a five-day pitching camp hosted in Taipei by the Florida Baseball Ranch (FBR), said a pitching coach must first be able to recognize the faults in each of his pitchers, and then come up with plans to help them improve.
