Purcey to attack strike zone in rematch
Toronto (75-66) vs. Tampa Bay (85-55), Sunday, 1:07 p.m. ET

TORONTO -- David Purcey has already dominated the Rays once this season. Less
than two weeks ago, the Blue Jays rookie simply overpowered Tampa Bay's lineup,
using pinpoint control and a knee-buckling curveball to spin the first complete
game of his career.
就在不到两周前,Purcey 对光芒队投出生涯代表作。他用绝佳的控球和大幅度曲球成就自
己生涯第一场完投。
The only thing lacking from that outing was a place in the win column for
Purcey, who was outdueled by Rays right-hander Matt Garza in that 1-0 affair on
Aug. 27. On Sunday, Purcey and Garza will match wits again in the finale of a
three-game set between the clubs at Rogers Centre.
那场比赛唯一的遗憾是没拿下胜投,对方投手 Matt Garza 表现一样出色,蓝鸟以 0-1 败
北。本周日,相同的投手对决将再度於蓝鸟主场上演。
Following a rough start his last time out, Purcey will be aiming to regain the
form he displayed during that performance against Tampa Bay. On Tuesday, the
6-foot-5 left-hander struggled with his control in an abbreviated effort against
the Twins. Shortly after his three-inning outing, Purcey identified what went
wrong.
上一场比赛 Purcey 投得不好。明天的比赛,他必须找回封锁光芒队那场比赛的表现。本周
二对双城的比赛,他控球不好,三局投完就被换下。赛後他马上找出缺点。
"I dropped my arm slot a little bit," Purcey explained after his start against
the Twins. "I went back to check the film on that and I was slinging the ball up
there a little bit, instead of driving it to the plate like I have been. That's
why I was falling behind in the counts.
Purcey:我的手肘有点低。我後来看了录影带,发现挥臂不像以往,那正是为何球数落後的
原因。
"It was hit and miss. Occasionally, I'd get my arm right up to where I wanted it
to be and then I'd go right back to slinging it. I was trying to be too fine,
trying to hit the corners instead of just going right after them."
有时候我的挥臂到位,但有时候就会低一点。我太求好心切,试着想投得边边角角而迁就着
挥臂,而不是自然地投球。
Purcey's arm slot certainly wasn't an issue in his earlier start against the
Rays. In that appearance, the soft-spoken southpaw tied a Toronto rookie record
with 11 strikeouts, including eight on four pitches or fewer. Purcey registered
20 first-pitch strikes to the 29 hitters he faced that night, and he threw three
balls to a hitter just once.
显然地,对光芒的那场比赛,他的挥臂就很 OK。那场比赛中,这位说话温柔的南面爪平了
蓝鸟队史新秀的单场三振记录。11 次三振中有 8 次用不到 4 球就解决打者。他面对 29
名打者,有 20 次第一球就是好球,且只对一位打者投出过 3 坏球。
Purcey finished with 92 pitches -- just 22 for balls -- in that eight-inning gem
in St. Petersburg. On Tuesday, Purcey never found that kind of command, needing
86 pitches (47 strikes) to get through three frames. When it was all said and
done, Purcey had allowed five runs on seven hits with four strikeouts and two
walks.
整场比赛 8 局,他只花了 92 球,其中仅有 22 球是坏球。但星期二队上双城的比赛,他
3 局的投球就花了 86 球,其中 47 球好球,被敲 7 安,责失 5 分,4 次三振,2 次四
坏。
"I was just consistently falling behind in counts," Purcey said. "I was trying
to nibble too much at the corners of the plate instead of just going right after
hitters like I have been doing."
Purcey:整场球一直处於球数落後的情况。我就是太在意要投得边边角角。
Lesson learned. Expect Purcey to go right after the Rays again.
他又学到了一课。让我们期待 Purcey 再展球威!

Bird seed
The Blue Jays have opened September with a 5-0 record for the first time since
1998. ... Toronto's seven-game winning streak is the team's longest run since
winning seven in a row from Sept. 22-29, 2002. ... With a base hit in the second
inning on Saturday, Blue Jays catcher Gregg Zaun snapped an 0-for-21 skid at the
plate, dating back to July 30. ... Zaun's walk-off grand slam in the 13th inning
on Saturday was Toronto's first walk-off home run since Sept. 15, 2006. It also
marked only the second walk-off grand slam (first in extra innings) in team
history. George Bell also accomplished the feat on Sept. 4, 1988. ... Toronto
ace Roy Halladay is the club's all-time leader with a .668 (129-64) winning
percentage. ... Jays right fielder Alex Rios leads the team with 63 extra-base
hits this season. On Saturday, Rios clubbed his 43rd double of the year,
matching his single-season career high, first set in 2007. ... Toronto is 6-7 in
extra-inning games this season.
蓝鸟 1998 年以来第一次九月份的头五场比赛全胜。目前的七连胜是 2002 年七连胜以来最
长的连胜场次。蓝鸟捕手葱哥在第二局的一垒安打结束了他自 7/30 以来 21 打数没安打的
低潮。葱哥在延长赛 13 局的再见炮是蓝鸟 2006 年 9/15 号以来的第一发,同时也是队史
第二支 (延长赛的第一支) 再见满贯弹。另一支是 George Bell 在 1988 年 9/4 击出的。
[按:几乎隔了十年耶~] 蓝鸟王牌好乐迪是队史上胜率最高的投手。右外野手 Rios 本季
63 支长打为全队最高,在昨天的比赛中,他打出平自己单季最多二垒打的记录。本季蓝鸟
在延长赛的胜败记录为 6-7。

我来念歌 请您仔细听,那个永公街上 说有一个奇怪的人。他每天行来行去 面黑黑又打赤
脚,不过他都行去满满的垃圾桶,找垃圾桶里面别人抛弃的东西
他只在附近游荡,全村的人都知道他,我喜欢这样称呼他,说他是永公街的街长
他不痴 也不是傻瓜,他不狂 也不常说话,他的世界里用着吊诡文法,他是永公街的街长
