Wang made his pro debut with the Uni-President Lions in March 2010, allowing one run in six innings. He finished the 2010 season 10–3 with a 3.83 ERA, tying for sixth in the league in wins. He won Rookie of the Year honors. In 2011, he was 10–6 with a save and a 3.90 ERA in 44 games. Had he qualified, he would have ranked 5th in ERA. He tied for fourth in wins, behind three foreign imports (Orlando Roman, Dan Reichert and Ken Ray); he was tied with Tyler Lumsden and rookie Ta-Yuan Kuan. He won games 2, 4 and 5 of the 2011 Taiwan Series to give the Lions the title (allowing one run in 9 1/3 IP for the Series); he was named Taiwan Series MVP. It was the fifth straight time the award went to a pitcher (following Luther Hackman twice, Nelson Figueroa and Jim Magrane) but the first time a Taiwanese player had won since 2006. In the Series finale, he was timed at 95 mph, a record for a Taiwanese native in a Taiwan Series (Hackman had been timed faster among all pitchers). No reliever had ever won 3 games in a Taiwan Series before.
