Why MLB teams -- and players -- want ballparks to keep getting louder 为什麽 MLB 球队──以及球员──希望球场持续变得更加喧闹 Jorge Castillo Aug 17, 2026, 07:00 AM ET https://shorturl.at/HGeGb LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- The organ serenaded fans as they filed into a humid Louisville Slugger Field on July 8, a seemingly typical home game for the Louisville Bats, the Cincinnati Reds' Triple-A affiliate. But two words displayed on a pair of screens overlooking the outfield promised something very different: Nothing Night. 肯塔基州路易斯维尔（LOUISVILLE, Ky.）──7 月 8 日，球迷陆续走进潮湿闷热的 Louisville Slugger Field，风琴声为他们奏起乐曲。这原本看似只是路易斯维尔蝙蝠队 ──辛辛那提红人队的 3A 附属球队──一场再普通不过的主场比赛。 但球场外野上方的两个萤幕却显示了两个字，预告这将是截然不同的一晚：「Nothing Night」。 Nothing, as in nothing but the traditional sounds of a ballpark: an organ, a public address announcer, the players, the fans, the crack of the bat, the pop of the mitt. No stadium DJ, no walk-up songs, no between-pitch sound effects, no between-inning shenanigans, no in-game advertisements, no flashy LED light shows. The scoreboard was there to show the score, the ball-strike count ... and not much else. 这里的「Nothing」，意思是除了球场传统声音之外，什麽都没有：风琴、现场广播员 （public address announcer）、球员、球迷、球棒击球的清脆声，以及手套接球时的啪 声。 没有球场 DJ、没有打者登场音乐、没有每一球之间的音效、没有局间花招、没有比赛中 的广告，也没有华丽的 LED 灯光秀。记分板的功能，就是显示比分、坏球与好球数…… 除此之外，几乎什麽都没有。 It was a purposeful, if gimmicky, zag from professional baseball in 2026, a product increasingly inundated by persistent, blaring noise. 这是一次刻意为之、尽管带有些许噱头的反向操作，与 2026 年的职业棒球形成鲜明对比 ──如今的职业棒球比赛，越来越被持续不断、震耳欲聋的声音所淹没。 "Today's game is all about noise, entertainment, constant action coming at you," said Vincent Zielen, the Bats' director of marketing. "How can we keep people engaged, especially at a baseball game? It's Savannah Bananas on steroids." 「今天的比赛讲究的就是噪音、娱乐，以及不断有各种动态刺激迎面而来，」蝙蝠队行销 总监（director of marketing） Vincent Zielen 说。「我们要怎麽让人们持续投入其中 ，尤其是在一场棒球比赛里？这就像是吃了类固醇的 Savannah Bananas。」 Savannah Bananas - 萨凡纳 香蕉棒球队 The move toward an arena-like game presentation is not limited to the flourishing barnstorming "Banana Ball" outfit or Major League Baseball's minor league affiliates. It extends to the highest level, where the soundscape has become louder and more constant as teams across MLB, with the blessing of their players, seek to attract fans and maintain their focus once inside the ballpark. 这种朝向「体育馆式」比赛呈现方式的趋势，并不只限於蓬勃发展、巡回各地表演的「香 蕉棒球队」团队，也不只是 MLB 的小联盟附属球队。 它已经延伸到最高层级的 MLB。如今，球场里的声音环境变得更加喧闹，也更加持续；全 大联盟各队在获得球员支持的情况下，都希望藉此吸引球迷，并让球迷进入球场後持续保 持注意力。 "It feels bigger," said Kansas City Royals first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino, who played on Nothing Night while on rehab assignment with the Omaha Storm Chasers but was left unimpressed by the experiment. "They feel like bigger moments when the crowd starts going crazy when there's two strikes or late in the game and it's loud. Both the pitcher and hitter are feeling it. You can't deny it. When it's louder, it definitely locks you in a little bit." 「感觉比赛规模更大了，」堪萨斯市皇家队一垒手 Vinnie Pasquantino 说。 当时他正在 Omaha Storm Chasers（奥马哈风暴追逐者队）进行复健赛程，因此参加了 Nothing Night，但对这项实验并没有留下太深刻的印象。 「当比赛进入两好球，或者到了比赛後段，现场变得非常喧闹、观众开始疯狂起来时，那 些时刻会让人感觉更加重大。投手和打者都能感受到那股气氛。你无法否认这一点。当现 场更吵的时候，它确实会让你更加专注一些。」 Among the most prominent examples is Yankee Stadium, where a striking shift has occurred in recent years. The organ has not been completely abandoned, but recorded music now blares even before pregame batting practice begins and continues, along with lighting and sound effects, throughout the game, seeming to pause only to allow pitches to be thrown. 其中最显着的例子之一就是洋基球场，近年来那里发生了非常明显的转变。 球场并没有完全放弃风琴，但如今，在赛前打击练习甚至开始之前，录制音乐就已经大声 播放；比赛期间，音乐也会与灯光及音效一路持续，似乎只有在投手要投球时才会暂停。 New York Yankees spokesperson Jason Zillo said that the team added speakers near the dugouts in 2022 and behind home plate in 2023 and that the angles of other speakers were changed, though he said the volume of each wasn't cranked up. The team then tweaked its in-game presentation during the 2024 season to add more music, including an in-house DJ spinning tunes during every game. 纽约洋基队发言人 Jason Zillo 表示，球队在 2022 年於休息区附近增设了喇叭，2023 年又在本垒後方增加喇叭，同时调整了其他喇叭的角度；不过，他表示每个喇叭本身的音 量并没有被调高。 之後，球队在 2024 年球季进一步调整比赛期间的呈现方式，加入更多音乐，包括每场比 赛都由球队内部的 DJ 现场播放音乐。 The decisions were made after team officials visited other stadiums for inspiration and with input from players -- led by former first baseman Anthony Rizzo, slugger Giancarlo Stanton and captain Aaron Judge. Judge told the New York Daily News earlier this season that he'd been requesting a more booming atmosphere since he arrived in the Bronx because it motivates players and creates a more intimidating environment for opponents. 这些决策是在球队官员走访其他球场寻找灵感之後做出的，同时也参考了球员们的意见， 其中由前一垒手 Anthony Rizzo、重炮打者 Giancarlo Stanton，以及队长 Aaron Judge 带头。 Judge 本季稍早接受《New York Daily News》访问时表示，自从他来到布朗克斯之後，就 一直要求球场营造更加震撼、更加喧闹的气氛，因为这能激励球员，也能为对手制造更具 威吓性的环境。 "For the past several years we have undergone a reimagining of our in-game entertainment programming to create an atmosphere with more tempo and pace, including chant prompts, sound effects, deejays and music drops," Zillo said in a statement. "Between pitches, between innings -- we are looking to fill idle time with lively and diverse engagement. We want Yankee Stadium to be loud and boisterous and exciting -- and so do our players." Zillo 在一份声明中表示：「过去几年来，我们一直重新构想比赛期间的娱乐内容，希望 打造一个节奏更快、更有活力的气氛，包括带动观众喊声的提示、音效、DJ，以及音乐突 然播放的桥段。」 「在每一球之间、每个半局之间——我们希望用活泼且多元的互动来填补比赛中的空档时 间。我们希望 Yankee Stadium 充满声音、热闹、令人兴奋——我们的球员也是这麽希望 的。」 Zillo said the Yankees' baseball operations department calculated that 17.2% of pitches in their games last season resulted in a ball in play -- down from 19.7% in 2009, the franchise's last championship campaign. As a result, Zillo said, the team is combating fans' cellphones for their attention on nearly 83% of pitches. He compared the phones' attention-smothering quality to the One Ring in "The Lord of the Rings." Zillo 表示，洋基队的棒球营运部门计算後发现，球队上季的比赛中，只有 17.2% 的投球 最终形成场内击球（ball in play）；这个比例低於 2009 年的 19.7%，而 2009 年正是 球队上一次夺得冠军的球季。 因此，Zillo 说，球队其实是在与球迷的手机争夺注意力，因为将近 83% 的投球都没有 形成场内击球。 他甚至把手机吞噬注意力的特性，比作《魔戒》（The Lord of the Rings）中的至尊魔戒 （One Ring）。 "We've got to fight against 'my precious,'" Zillo said. 「我们必须对抗那个『我的宝贝（my precious）』，」Zillo 说。 For some players, the effort is still not enough. 但对某些球员而言，这样的努力仍然不够。 "I want it louder," Yankees utility player Amed Rosario said in Spanish. "We can barely hear the music. Dodger Stadium, now that's loud." 「我希望再大声一点，」洋基队工具人（utility player） Amed Rosario 用西班牙语说 道。 「我们几乎都听不见音乐。Dodger Stadium，那才叫吵。」 Dodger Stadium has become famous (infamous?) for its earsplitting sound system, which, coupled with a capacity crowd of more than 55,000, creates a rowdy atmosphere for the two-time defending World Series champions. Fox and Dodgers play-by-play broadcaster Joe Davis said his directors "hate" the light shows that have become customary across the majors because it's difficult to see the players. But nothing compares to the volume in Chavez Ravine. Dodger Stadium 已经因为其震耳欲聋的音响系统而闻名（或者说臭名远播？）。再加上 超过 55,000 人的满场观众，让这座球场成为这支连续两届卫冕世界大赛冠军球队最喧闹 的主场之一。 Fox 以及 Dodgers 球赛实况播报员（play-by-play broadcaster） Joe Davis 表示，他 的导播们「讨厌」如今已成为大联盟各球场惯例的灯光秀，因为那会让人很难看清楚球员 。 但即使如此，还是没有任何地方能比得上 Chavez Ravine（查维兹峡谷）的音量。 "I think part of the thing at Dodger Stadium is where they're located," Davis said. "Dead center bank of speakers directed right at you. The directional aspect of those speakers and its location probably amplified how loud it is there." 「我认为 Dodger Stadium 的部分关键，在於那些喇叭的位置，」Davis 说。 「正中央那一整排喇叭，就直接朝着你。那些喇叭的指向性，以及它们所在的位置，很可 能放大了那里的音量。」 Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Max Scherzer, at 42 years old, is the second-oldest active player in the majors. Including the Dodgers, the future Hall of Famer has played for seven franchises from coast to coast -- and across the border -- over a 19-year career that spans back to 2008, when the organ still reigned and light shows remained exclusive to late-night establishments. Scherzer, a three-time Cy Young Award winner known for his intense demeanor on the mound, welcomes the amplification of the senses. 42 岁的多伦多蓝鸟队右投手 Max Scherzer，是目前大联盟第二年长的现役球员。 包括 Dodgers 在内，这位未来的名人堂球员在 19 年职业生涯中，已经效力过 7 支球队 ，足迹从美国东岸到西岸──甚至跨越国境。 他的职业生涯可以追溯到 2008 年，那个年代球场仍以风琴声为主，而灯光秀还只是深夜 娱乐场所的专利。 Scherzer 曾三度赢得赛扬奖，以投手丘上强烈而充满侵略性的神情闻名；而对於如今这种 更加放大感官刺激的比赛环境，他相当乐见其成。 "I love it. I love it. Make it louder," Scherzer said. "I love pitching in that type of environment. To me, it adds to the atmosphere of the game. Makes the fans engaged. Fans are loud. I want to be in that type of environment." 「我喜欢。我非常喜欢。让它再大声一点，」Scherzer 说。 「我喜欢在那种环境下投球。对我来说，这让比赛的气氛更加强烈，也让球迷更加投入。 球迷就是要大声。我想要的就是那种环境。」 In Queens, the New York Mets unveiled a 17,400-square-foot jumbotron at Citi Field in 2023. Mets games now feature live DJs, an in-game emcee, dancers and a segment called "Mid-6th Mayhem" where an elaborate light show and electronic music briefly turn the ballpark into a festive nightclub no matter the score. 在皇后区（Queens），纽约大都会队於 2023 年在 Citi Field 启用了面积达 17,400 平 方英尺的超大型电子看板（jumbotron）。 如今，大都会队的比赛会安排现场 DJ、比赛主持人（in-game emcee）、舞者，以及一个 名为「Mid-6th Mayhem」 的环节；在这个环节中，精心设计的灯光秀搭配电子音乐，短暂 地将球场变成一间充满节庆气氛的夜店，而不管当时的比分如何。 Mets pitcher Sean Manaea, an 11-year veteran with four teams, said he recently came across a Reddit thread of fans complaining about stadium noise. He sympathized. 大都会队投手 Sean Manaea 是一名效力过 4 支球队、拥有 11 年大联盟资历的老将。他 表示，自己最近看到 Reddit 上有一则球迷抱怨球场噪音的讨论串。 他对这些球迷的感受表示理解。 "I am indifferent towards it," Manaea said. "I think it's a way to motivate the crowd, you know? It's cool, but sometimes it can be a little too much. Like when it's just every pitch, every AB with different kind of music or a clap chant thing going on. I'm going to lean more towards turn it down." 「我对这件事没有特别的感觉，」Manaea 说。「我想这是一种激励观众的方法，你知道 吗？这很酷，但有时候可能会有点太过头了。 「比如说，每一球、每一个打席都搭配不同种类的音乐，或者一直有拍手、带动喊声之类 的活动。我会比较倾向於──把音量调小一点。」 Other ballparks have increased their efforts to create arena-like atmospheres in their quests to engage spectators. The Atlanta Braves hold an immersive show when opposing relief pitchers are summoned, using strobe lights and encouraging fans to turn on their cellphone flashlights while taking part in the chop chant to music. 其他球场也加大力度，试图营造类似体育馆的气氛，以吸引观众投入其中。 当对手启用後援投手时，亚特兰大勇士队会举办一场沉浸式表演，利用频闪灯光，并鼓励 球迷打开手机的手电筒功能，同时配合音乐参与「Tomahawk Chop」应援。 战歌 In Arizona, the sound system at Chase Field is noticeably louder this season, Davis noted. Same goes with the system inside the recently restored Tropicana Field, home of the Tampa Bay Rays, which Mets TV color analyst and former pitcher Ron Darling highlighted on a recent broadcast. Davis 注意到，在亚利桑那州，Chase Field 本季的音响系统明显变得更加大声。 最近完成修复、作为坦帕湾光芒队主场的 Tropicana Field，里面的音响系统也是如此。 大都会队电视转播的色彩评论员（color analyst）、前投手 Ron Darling 最近在一次 转播中，特别提到了这一点。 "The sound is so loud there, louder than Dodger Stadium," Darling warned broadcast partners Gary Cohen and Keith Hernandez, with the Mets scheduled to play at Tropicana Field in early September. "They play a tune or part of a tune between every pitch. So, get ready." 「那里的声音真的非常大，比 Dodger Stadium 还要大声，」当时大都会队预计在 9 月 初前往 Tropicana Field 比赛，Darling 提醒他的转播搭档 Gary Cohen 与 Keith Hernandez。 「他们每一球之间都会播放一段完整或部分的音乐。所以，做好心理准备吧。」 Not all ballparks are playing along to that extreme. Wrigley Field and Fenway Park, the two oldest major league stadiums, remain loyal to the sights and sounds synonymous with baseball games, though both ballparks recently installed LED lighting that allows for those dynamic in-game light shows. 并非所有球场都把这种做法推向如此极端。 Wrigley Field 与 Fenway Park 是大联盟历史最悠久的两座球场，至今仍忠於那些与棒 球比赛密不可分的传统视觉与声音元素。 不过，这两座球场最近都安装了 LED 灯光系统，因此也能够进行这类充满动态效果的比 赛期间灯光秀。 "I don't care, but I do notice it," Pittsburgh Pirates starter Paul Skenes said. "The only difference it makes is I have to put my glove up to my hat to make sure I hear the PitchCom. I think if anybody tells you that they don't hear it, they're lying. Like, 'I'm so in the zone, I don't hear anything.' You're full of s---." 「我不在乎，但我的确会注意到，」先发投手 Paul Skenes 说。 「它唯一造成的差别，就是我必须把手套举到帽子旁边，确保自己能听见 PitchCom。 「我认为，如果有人告诉你，他完全听不到那些声音，那他就是在说谎。比如说，『我太 专注在比赛状态里了，什麽都听不到。』拜托，那根本是在胡扯。」 This is the fourth year the Bats have held a Nothing Night. They originally had just one scheduled this season, on May 12, but the reaction on social media this time was so overwhelming that the team decided to add another one. 今年已经是 Bats 举办 Nothing Night 的第四年。 球队原本只安排本季的一场 Nothing Night，日期是 5 月 12 日，但这一次活动在社群 媒体上引发的反应非常热烈，因此球队决定再增加一场。 Left-handed reliever Caleb Ferguson, an eight-year major league veteran, was on rehab assignment with the Bats for that May game. 拥有 8 年大联盟资历的左投後援 Caleb Ferguson，当时正在 Bats 进行复健赛程，并参 加了那场 5 月的比赛。 "It was just kinda weird," said 30-year-old Ferguson, whom the Reds traded to the St. Louis Cardinals earlier this month. "You heard everything. If your dugout's chirping the umpire, you could hear that. It's literally silent. I didn't like it." 「就是觉得有点奇怪，」30 岁的 Ferguson 说。 本月稍早，红人队将他交易至圣路易红雀队。 「你什麽都听得到。如果你们休息区正在对裁判碎念，你都听得见。现场真的安静到一点 声音都没有。我不喜欢那样。」 Bats manager Pat Kelly spent most of his 14-year playing career in the minor leagues, outside of appearing in three games with the Toronto Blue Jays in 1980, before embarking on a managerial career in 1986. Four decades later, Kelly, now 70, understands the evolution and yearns for yesteryear's ballgame atmosphere. 蝙蝠队总教练 Pat Kelly 的 14 年球员生涯大多是在小联盟度过；除了 1980 年曾代表 多伦多蓝鸟队出赛 3 场之外，他几乎都在小联盟打球。 1986 年，他开始了自己的执教生涯。 四十年後，如今已 70 岁的 Kelly 理解棒球环境正在不断演变，但他仍然怀念昔日的球 场气氛。 "I compare it to cellphones," Kelly said. "I grew up without cellphones. Now we have them and you can't walk out of the house without it. Same thing here. The players are now just used to it." 「我会把这件事拿来跟手机相比，」Kelly 说。 「我是在没有手机的环境下长大的。现在我们有了手机，甚至没有它就没办法走出家门。 这里也是一样。现在的球员就是已经习惯这些东西了。」 The return of Nothing Night last month ended with infielder Michael Chavis, a five-year MLB vet, coming off the bench to belt a walk-off grand slam to beat Omaha, a loud conclusion to a quiet affair. 上个月 Nothing Night 的回归，最终以内野手 Michael Chavis 代打上场，轰出一支再见 满贯全垒打击败 Omaha 作收。 Chavis 是一名拥有 5 年大联盟资历的老将，而这支全垒打也为原本安静的一晚，画下了 一个震撼而喧闹的句点。 For Al Greener, the Bats' organist, it was an opportunity to take center stage and relive the game he fondly remembers. 对蝙蝠队的风琴手 Al Greener 而言，这则是一个重新站上舞台中央、重温他所深深怀念 的昔日棒球比赛的机会。 "There's a whole lot of plaques in Cooperstown that I've never heard a walk-up song," Greener said. "And they did all right." 「在 Cooperstown，有一大堆名人堂牌匾所代表的球员，我从来没听过他们的打者登场曲 ，」Greener 说。 「而他们一样打得很好。」 --
