这篇主要在讲这位记者先生认为洋基季後赛应该采取的调度方式.. 有几个地方不懂其典故 还要请各位指教 ^^" ※ 引述《yyhong68 (come every now and then)》之铭言： : WANG'S THE ONE : RIGHTY SHOULD OPEN PLAYOFFS 小王理应排在季後赛一号先发 : Joel Sherman : September 16, 2006 -- IT was raining hard enough in the pregame yesterday : for Joe Torre to abandon his familiar perch in the home dugout and instead : chat with the media in the corridor outside the Yankees' clubhouse. 昨日一场滂沱大雨, 使得Torre并不像往常一样在室内, 而是选择在休息室外的走廊接受 媒体的采访. : For nearly 13 minutes, Torre talked about injuries, seeing Hideki Matsui : play left field, and the current benefits of having Sal Fasano catch : Jaret Wright. The Red Sox were down the hall, and Torre hardly mentioned : them. What a powerful statement - and non-statement - about where we are : now. It is mid-September and, really, all that matters for the Yanks is : October. 在将近13分钟的受访中, Torre谈到了松井秀喜重回左外野守备的问题, 以及起用捕手Sal Fasano和Wright搭配後所收到的良好效果. 当时红袜队就在不远处的大厅休息, 而Torre 显然并不关心对手的存在. Torre的行为说明了一件强而有力 - 或者说理所当然的事情: 即使现在才不过是九月中旬, 但洋基球团已经将展望目标全数放在十月的季後赛了. : A month ago that would have been impossible to believe. But the Yanks : stormed into Fenway in mid-August, swept five games, and reduced this : current series to what feels like the most meaningless Red Sox-Yankees : matchup since Dooley Womack was trying to retire Joe Foy : (ask your fathers). 在一个月以前, 我们很难想到洋基竟能在这个时节如此从容不迫. 其中最大的关键点便在 八月中旬於芬威球场进行的基袜五连战 - 洋基在红袜家中五连胜, 狠狠地将主人扫地出 门, 而这也使得明天开始即将登场的基袜四连战, 成为本球季最无关紧要的一次系列战. 你看, 就连Dooley Womack都想让Joe Foy退休了. (看不懂? 去请教父亲吧.) (译注: 这到底啥意思? ....我很确定我家老爸不会知道XD) : That has permitted Torre to treat the rest of the schedule as a testing : ground for the playoffs, to gather the final crumbs in shaping his : roster, lineup and pitching staff. Torre and pitching coach Ron Guidry : each said they would not establish a postseason rotation until they know : their first-round opponent. 於是Torre今年有非常充裕的时间准备迎接季後赛, 包括找出目前状况最好的投打名单, 从而确定季後赛的最佳组合. 但是Torre和投手教练Ron Guidry也一致声称: 直到他们确 定季後赛第一轮对手是谁, 他们才能敲定季後赛的先发投手轮值. : But why wait until the Tigers, Twins and White Sox sort themselves out? : To me, the only interest left in Red Sox-Yankees is this: Due to a rainout : yesterday, the teams will play doubleheaders today and tomorrow. If the : Yanks sweep today and win tomorrow's opener, they will clinch the AL East. : At that point, the Yanks could celebrate between games, permitting Torre : to deliver a salvo against an entity he hates, ESPN, by either starting : a drunk team or a club full of Andy Cannizaros and Kevin Thompsons in : the nightcap for the network's prime-time game. 但是为什麽一定要等到老虎, 双城, 和白袜分出最後胜负呢? 对我来说, 这次基袜系列战 还是有唯一值得关注的重点: 因为昨天下雨的关系, 使得两队将在今明两天短兵相接连战 四场. 而假若洋基今天连胜两场, 明天又拿下午场胜利的话, 他们就封王了! 果真如此的 话, 那麽洋基将可在明天两场比赛的间隔中大肆庆祝, Torre甚至可以赏给他讨厌的ESPN 一个颜色瞧瞧, 比如说在明晚比赛恶搞, 让整队的醉汉上场打球, 或者让一大堆戴着睡帽 的Andy Cannizaros和Kevin Thompsons上场比赛.... (这後半段到底是在讲啥....orz) : For now, Torre is planning to go with Chien-Ming Wang followed by : Randy Johnson in today's doubleheader and Jaret Wright followed by : Mike Mussina tomorrow. Those are the four guys who should comprise : the Division Series rotation, and here is the order they should pitch : and why: Torre打算在本次系列战推出小王打头阵, 接下来则依序是RJ, Moose, 和Wright. 而这四 名投手也被认为将是洋基季後赛的先发投手群. 以下我分别说明他们应该在季後赛中担纲 第几场先发及其理由: : WANG IN GAME 1 -He has pitched much better at home than on the road, : and whoever starts the opener would, if necessary, also start a decisive : Game 5 at Yankee Stadium. A few weeks back there was concern about Wang : far exceeding his highest inning total ever. He has tempered those frets : by pitching well recently and actually now projects as the Yankees starter : most capable of handling a heavy workload. If his signature hard sinker : is on, it does not matter if a team sees him twice in a series. There is : little adjustment that could be made to that pitch. 小王排第一场 - 首先, 小王主场战绩比客场好太多了, 而且通常排在第一场的先发投手, 在第五场关键战(如果有必要的话)将会二度於洋基主场登板. 就在数周之前, 许多人关心 小王投球局数的问题会否影响其表现, 因为在本季之前他从未投过如此多局数. 而小王近 来几场表现仍旧优异, 这不但打消了许多人的疑虑, 也证明了他确实是洋基目前阵中最能 担纲重任的投手! 只要小王那招牌式的伸卡球威力能够正常发挥, 那麽即使他第二度面对 同一队伍, 相信对手也是讨不了好处. : JOHNSON IN GAME 2 -He actually has performed better on the road. Still, : there are benefits to pitching a lefty at the Stadium. Also, as he showed : again in last year's Division Series, there are advantages to having Johnson : available in relief in the postseason. If he starts in Game 2, he could be : available out of the pen in Games 4 or 5. RJ投第二场 - 其实巨怪今年在客场投的比较好. 但是让他留在洋基主场先发仍有其好处. 首先是左投优势, 其次, 就像去年季後赛的表现那般, 若将他排在第二场先发, 那麽如果 有必要的话, RJ将可在第四或第五战中登板中继. : MUSSINA IN GAME 3 - Torre always has thought this is the most important : game in a series, more so if the game is on the road, which it would be : here. Torre would want his pitcher most likely not to be impacted by that : kind of outside distraction, and that probably is Mussina. Moose负责第三战 - Torre总认为第三战将会是最关键的一战, 而如果第三战是在客场作 战, 则其角色将更形重要. Torre在此需要一个无惧於客场压力的稳定投手, 而这名人选 毫无疑问地是穆帅. : WRIGHT IN GAME 4 - Cory Lidle has tendinitis in his pitching hand, which : Torre said has robbed some effectiveness from the righty's splitter. Wright : has pitched better recently teamed with Fasano, peppering the strike zone : more. This might be a close call, but the nod goes to Wright because his : stuff is better, he has more postseason experience than Lidle : (including starting a World Series Game 7), and when a decision is close, : loyalty should matter. Wright has been part of the team all year, caused : no problems when he was bounced in and out of the rotation and - unlike, : say, Carl Pavano - has gained clubhouse-wide respect for working through : myriad injuries. There is some enticement when it comes to rookies Jeff : Karstens and Darrell Rasner, but way too much mystery to trust them in : October over Wright. Wright投第四场 - 在Cory Lidle些微手伤, 而Wright则在与捕手Fasano搭配表现优异的 情况下, 显然地後者将在季後赛最後一个先发名额的竞争中胜出, 再加上Wright经验较为 丰富, 他甚至有在世界大赛第七战先发的经验. 如果战况吃紧的话, 一个投手心脏够不够 大颗将会成为胜负关键. 另外, 虽然Wright在今年先发名单中载浮载沉, 但他至少不像那 位闻名遐迩的Pavano先生一样, 拥有让队上全员为之动容的伤病史....XD 至於两名菜鸟投手Karstens和Rasner, 在十月之前应该也是拼不赢Wright才对. : [email protected] : http://0rz.net/9c1Rh --
