Kuo Lee Chien-Fu (Chinese: 郭李建夫; pinyin: Guō Lǐ Jiànfū; born March 24, 1969^[1] in Taoyuan County, Taiwan (now Taoyuan City)) 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 Chinese Taipei versus Japan matches, one in the preliminary round and the other in the semifinal. The two victories helped the Chinese Taipei team win the silver medal that year. He was also a member of the Chinese Taipei national baseball team in the 1988 Olympics when baseball was a demonstration sport, but did not play in any of the tournament's matches due to his juniority at that time.

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 the Chinese Taipei national baseball team in the 1998 Asian Games, but was allowed 7 runs in within only 2 innings in the Chinese Taipei versus South Korea match, only could see the Chan-ho Park-led South Korean team slaughtering Taiwan. His fame accumulated since 1992 suddenly vanished: Taiwan Major League immediately announced "we do not have any plan to acquire Kuo Lee" right after this fiasco. He later sought to join CPBL's Chinatrust Whales and stayed with the team until his final retirement in late 2003. He currently coaches local college baseball team.
