Subway has found a new Jared, and his name is Hong-Chih Kuo. The Dodgers setup man is the sandwich chain’s pitchman in Taiwan and the star of this bizarre commercial in which he dons a No. 69 Subway jersey. If you’re wondering why, the six-inch subs cost NT$69, which comes out to two bucks in the states. If the advertising can be believed, it appears scarfing some Subway might help him come off the DL.
