The Chinese Professional Baseball League All-Star Game, CPBL All-Star Game is being played the weekend of 30–31 July. The postseason started on 29 October, followed by the first game of the Taiwan Series on 5 November.

The winner of the Playoff Series faced the half-season champion with the higher winning percentage in the Taiwan Series.Draft
From 2022, foreign-born players can be considered domestic draft picks if: they have attended a Taiwanese high school for three years, a Taiwanese university for four years, or have lived in Taiwan for five years, while playing for a Taiwanese semi-professional league for three years.Milestones
On Opening Day, Lin Chih-sheng, who was released by the CTBC Brothers at the end of last season, hit the 290th home run of his career, breaking the league record held by Chang Tai-shan, who is a coach for his newly adopted team, the Wei Chuan Dragons.Controversies
On the opening weekend of the second half of the season, the high expectations for the re-opening of the Hsinchu Baseball Stadium, Hsinchu Municipal Baseball Stadium were dashed when the league announced that the stadium was to be closed temporarily due to player safety issues. Injuries to players in both games played showed inadequacies in the stadium, including the nature of the dirt in the infield. The stadium was to have been a second home to the Wei Chuan Dragons for the second half of the season, but as of this time it is unclear when games will be played in the stadium again.Standings
