The Rakuten Monkeys, also known as First Financial Holdings Agan, La New Bears, and Lamigo Monkeys, are a professional baseball team competing in the Chinese Professional Baseball League (CPBL) in Taiwan. Their previous names include First Financial Holdings Agan, La New Bears, and Lamigo Monkeys.
The Monkeys, who were owned and operated by the shoe-making La New Corporation in Kaohsiung and later by the Japan-based electronic commerce and online retailing company Rakuten, made the playoffs for the first time in team history in 2006 and earned an automatic spot in the Taiwan Series by finishing the regular season with the best record.
From 2004 until 2010, the team played its home games at Chengcing Lake Baseball Field in Kaohsiung County, which is now a part of Kaohsiung City. Their home stadium was relocated to Taoyuan International Baseball Stadium for the 2011 campaign. The team was renamed the Lamigo Monkeys as a result, and current owner Rakuten still uses the “Monkeys” moniker.

Fubon Financial Holding Co. is the team’s owner, and they play their home games at New Taipei City’s Xinzhuang Baseball Stadium.
