    Chinese description writing HELP on a game used player hat

    Hi Forum,
    I have a 2008 Hung-Wen Chen (Daytona Cubs ’A’) BP minor league game used baseball hat. He is from Taiwan. I am trying to figure out the writing inside the cap. Can anyone help me? Here is the picture of the inside bill. Have a nice day. B.F.

      I"m Chinese but completely illiterate in it.

      I sent this writing to my contact in China who built the Mr. Met head for me and asked him for his translation.

        My daughter is taking chinese in middle school.

        Her attempt at a translation is

        First char "see"
        2nd char "3"
        last char could be "small", "petty" ,"young"

        Will wait to see what my man in Beijing says.

          Wow! Those middle school chinese lession are paying off.



          Here's the translation I got from Beijing.

          The words on the pictures may have no any meanings... first is "look" or " see", the second is "three", and the last is probably the "small", when they are placed together, may be someone's nick name on website, actually no any meaning.

              I showed this to a friend of mine. He said that it reminded him of a thing that some people from Taiwan write to "remind them of home." I should have written it down but it has something to do with "Seeing the 3 small links" and its regarding having a memory of traveling from Taiwan to China. I will ask him again and post. It doesnt make sense to me but I figured I would post it.

                Thank you Metsbats, your daughter, your contact in China, Flaco1801, & GarkoCollector. I thought it was the player last name and his uniform number under the bill. Have a nice night. B.F.
