其实类似标题还可以来个Warren Spahn and Willie Mays :P
1951 年初
还是个青涩二十岁小子的Mays 在Minneapolis (?) 开季第一个月打了.477
使得春训就对Mays 惊为天人的Leo Durocher
总算有机会把他要上来
传说中两人的对话:
Willie: Skip, I dont think I'm ready yet....I'm still not good enough
Leo: How much did you hit down there?
Willie: Four-hundred and seventy seven I think
Leo: Fine. Now listen kid. Just got that god-damn two hundred fifty
for me and you'll be alright.
You are my centerfielder no matter what.
可是上来之後Mays 连续三场十三个打数全部杠龟
Mays 的信心越来越动摇
甚至希望Durocher 把他送回去 (Durocher 当然不可能鸟他)
回到Polo Grounds 第一场比赛又碰上成名以久的Warren Spahn
结果Mays 第一个打席打了Spahn 一只飞出Polo Grounds 的大号全垒打
生涯第一只安打, 第一支全垒打
And there would be another 3282 and 659 that will follow
事後Spahn 的感想:
1. (Right after the game)
You know, a weakness of a young player just spreads like wildfire.
The words about Willie is that low-and-away will kill him
So I made a perfect pitch to that kid...for the first 60 feet.
2. (many years later, jokingly)
If I could strike out Willie at that time, I'll save a horse shit lot
of trouble for all National League pitchers for the next 20 years.
What a pity....
