Kuo Lee Chien-fu (Chinese: 郭李建夫; pinyin: Guō Lǐ Jiànfū; Wade–Giles: Kuo1 Li3 Chien4-fu1; born March 24, 1969[2] in Taoyuan County, Taiwan) is a retired Taiwanese professional baseball pitcher and currently a baseball coach. He is best known for being the ace pitcher in the Chinese Taipei national baseball team in the 1992 Olympics where he was twice the winning pitcher in the two games against Japan, one in the preliminary round and the other in the semifinal. The two victories helped the Taiwanese national team win the silver medal that year. He was also a member of the team in the 1988 Olympics when baseball was a demonstration sport, but did not play in any of the tournament's games.
After the 1992 Olympics Kuo Lee joined the Hanshin Tigers. However, during his 6-year career with the Tigers he performed only moderately and was waived by the end of 1998. Right after the waiver Kuo Lee represented Taiwan in the 1998 Asian Games, but allowed 7 runs in within only 2 innings in game against South Korea, as the Chan-ho Park-led South Korean team routed Taiwan. His fame accumulated since 1992 suddenly vanished as Taiwan Major League immediately announced "we do not have any plan to acquire Kuo Lee" right after this fiasco. He later join CPBL's Chinatrust Whales and stayed with the team until his final retirement in late 2003. He currently coaches a college baseball team.
