老爸是军人的红雀二垒手Brendan Donovan 对於明年代表美国打WBC很有兴趣 https://reurl.cc/3Kn5XO Donovan -- who hails from a life-long military family and is someone who spends loads of his own time supporting veteran causes and often wears a stars-and-stri pes headband under his hat -- wants that Team USA appointment dearly. Like, almo st more than he’s ever wanted anything in baseball. “To be able to put that USA across your chest … that’s something I would stro ngly consider,” Donovan told MLB.com. “Obviously, seeing my dad put on a very different kind of uniform every day -- that flag means everything to our family. My dad represented his country overseas and here in the states in a very differ ent way. But to be able to do something like that and represent my country, that would be extremely special.” “That would be the purest form of baseball … playing for your country,” Donov an said. “You’re not worried about money, you’re not worried about politics a nd you’re not worried about anything but, ‘How can I win this game for my coun try?’ “I heard Skenes talking about it when he said he wore that USA jersey with camo (while at LSU), and that’s something that would really resonate with me. I’d see my dad put on his boots every day, and it could be kind of the same with me. The boots and the cleats are different, but it’s the same kind of pride. So it would be special if that opportunity ever came.” Donovan 出身於一个军人世家，他经常利用自己的时间支持退伍军人相关的事业，并经常在 帽子下戴着星条旗图案的头带，他非常渴望能够加入美国国家队——几乎比他以往在棒球生 涯中渴望的任何事情都还要强烈。 「能够穿上印有『USA』字样的球衣……这是我会非常认真考虑的事，」Donovan 在接受 ML B.com 访问时说 「我每天都看到我爸爸穿上那种截然不同的制服——对我们家来说，那面国旗意义重大。我 爸爸以一种非常不同的方式在海内外为国服务，而能够做那样的事、代表我的国家，那会是 一件非常特别的事情。」 「那将是最纯粹的棒球……为你的国家而打球，」 「你不会担心金钱，也不会在意政治，更不会去想其他任何事，只会想着：『我要怎麽为我 的国家赢下这场比赛？』」 「我听到 Skenes 说他在 LSU 穿上那件带有迷彩图样的 USA 球衣时的感受，那真的让我很 有共鸣，我每天都看到我爸穿上军靴，而对我来说也许能有相似的体会，军靴与钉鞋不同， 但那份自豪是一样的。所以如果有机会参加，那真的会非常特别。」 本季成绩 .321/.384/.462 4HR wRC+139 --
