翻的很烂请诸位英文强者赐教～～ One irony in the trend of Dodgers injuries is that Hong-Chih Kuo is bucking it. Consider that a medical miracle. 尽管命运一再作弄人，郭泓志在经过一串的手术後仍能东山站起可说是一项医学的奇蹟。 The 24-year-old left-handed reliever from Taiwan struck out four of the six batters he faced in setting up Friday night's 5-3 Dodgers win over the winless Phillies. Brett Tomko got the win in his Dodgers debut and understudy closer Danys Baez saved the first game since Eric Gagne's most recent surgical procedure. 24岁来自台湾的左手救援投手在礼拜五的比赛中三振了他所面对六名打者中的四人。 Los Angeles scored five runs in the first three innings off Philadelphia starter Gav in Floyd, then had only one hit over the last 6 1/3 innings. Jason Repko, batting leadoff after Rafael Furcal's late scratch, went 2-for-4 with a run, walk, RBI and stolen base to raise his average to .438. Bill Mueller had a pair of doubles and the Dodgers stranded 10 runners. James Loney had an RBI triple, but also had a tight hamstring at game's end. Kuo emerged unscatched, nothing to be taken for granted. He's a rookie by baseball standards, but a veteran in elbow operations. He's had three, two of them of the severe Tommy John reconstruction variety. 郭展现出没有受伤之前的表现，这是理所当然的结果。他算是棒球界的菜鸟，但却是动手 肘手术的老鸟。他曾经动过三次手术，其中两次还是颇为严重的汤米约翰重建手术。 After a five-year rehab, his resiliency remains uncertain, especially in the chilly weather expected on this trip through Pennsylvania, one reason the Dodgers felt compelled to start the season with 12 pitchers. It's impossible, Kuo concedes, not to think about the potential for another injury. But he said Gagne, who underwent his third arm surgery Friday, gave him advice to pitch by. 经过了长达五年的复健，他还能否站起来真的很难预料，特别是这趟宾州之行要碰到这种 寒冷的气候，然而道奇决定今年球季开始要预备12名投手。郭泓志承认他不可能不去想还 会承担再一次手术的风险。但是他说刚爷在礼拜五动了第三次手术之前给了他一些宝贵的 投球建议。 "Gagne told me, 'If it happens, it happens. You can't worry about it,' " Kuo said. " 'If you think about it, you'll be scared and you're not going to pitch good. Just pitch.' I listen to Gagne. Whatever happens, happens." 刚爷跟我说，如果发生了，就让它发生吧！你不能为这种事情担忧。如果你一直在想它， 你就会恐惧然後投不好球。投球时啥都别去想就对了。於是我听从了刚爷的建议，发生的 事情就让他发生吧。 It first happened to Kuo in his professional debut in San Bernardino on April 10, 2000, a game that has become something of Dodgers Minor League folklore. Kuo faced 10 batters that night and struck out seven. He hit a batter with a pitch and induced two weak grounders. 郭泓志的故事要追溯到两千年四月十日他1A初登版，一场比赛後来演变成道奇农场流传的 民间故事。那场比赛郭面对了10名打者，K掉7人，打中一位打者，剩下两位击成软弱滚地 球。 Joe Thurston, now in Philadelphia's farm system, was playing shortstop behind Kuo that night. Joe Thurston，现在费城人队的农场球员，在郭主投的那场球守游击。 "It seemed like he struck out everybody," said Thurston. "I remember having a friend on the other team and he fouled a ball off. That was about the best contact off him -- a foul ball. In Single-A, you just don't see guys throw like that. It wasn't like they weren't getting a hit. They weren't touching the ball. And he was doing it so easy. You see guys throwing hard like that, but they're grunting and working hard. He looked like a natural." 我感觉那场比赛郭好像K掉了所有打者，Thurston说。我记得我一位朋友在那场比赛打了 一个界外球，那是他打到郭最棒的一球，是一记界外球。在1A，你从来没看过一个投手 像他那样投球，那些打者面对他时好像只为了碰到球，而不是想击成安打。可是郭做这种 事情却那样随意。你会看到有些人尽全力投球才能达到这种水准，可是郭做起来却那样自 然。 Kuo made it look so easy that few realized he struck out the final batter with an elbow that had blow out on the previous pitch. 很少人知道郭那一天轻易的达成任务，却在那天的投球过程中，报废了他的手臂。 "A scout told me that he could have pitched in the big leagues that night, and he was only 17," said Dino Ebel, Kuo's manager at San Bernardino and now the Angels' third-base coach. "But I remember that last at-bat, and he threw a 98-mph fastball and stepped off and shook his arm a little. He struck the guy out, but when he got back to the dugout he said he felt something." Dino Ebel,道奇当时一A的总教练说一位球探曾经跟他讲郭当时的表现足以站稳大联盟的 舞台，而当时郭泓志只有17岁。但是他记得当时郭面对的最後一名打者，投了一记98mile 的速球後就感受到手臂有点微恙。郭把那位打者三振了，但回到休息区郭就感受到事情大 条了。 Kuo said he actually heard something. 郭说他当时明确听到手臂发出声音。 "I heard it pop," he said. "It didn't hurt, but my arm felt weird. I didn't throw a fastball the next pitch, I threw a curve and struck him out." 我听到啪一声，郭说。不会痛，但是感觉很怪。於是我下一球没有拼速球，我丢了一记曲 球然後把他三振掉。 Kuo's next appearance was on Dr. Frank Jobe's operating table for what would be his first (and not last) Tommy John elbow reconstruction. He pitched in only seven games each of the next two seasons, but the arm never felt right, leading to an operation after the 2002 season to remove scar tissue. 郭泓志下一次露面就是在手术台动第一次汤米约翰手术，之後两个球季他只出赛七场，但 是手臂从来没好过，因此2002球季後又再次动刀来移除他伤疤组织。 During Spring Training in 2003, Kuo's rebuilt elbow ligament snapped again. So Kuo became the second pitcher in the Dodgers' clubhouse to undergo a second Tommy John procedure, joining Darren Dreifort. In 2004, Kuo pitched in only three games and was shut down again. 2003年春训其间，郭泓志的重建韧带又再次断掉。因此他成为道奇球团第二位二度接受 汤米约翰手术的球员，第一位是Darren Dreifort。2004年，郭也只出赛三场然後又故 障了。 Five years into his career, he had pitched in 18 games, undergone three operations and considered quitting "every day," he said. The pain was relentless and Kuo said, "I couldn't even remember what it felt like before the first surgery. It hurt so bad after I threw that I just didn't want to throw anymore." 总计五年下来，郭只出赛18场，经历三次手术，然後郭说他当时每一天都想要放弃棒球生 命。那种剧痛凡人无法想像，我甚至不记得第一次手术之前那种痛楚的感觉。当时那种无 以言欲的痛让我不想再投球了。 But with encouragement from friends and particularly Minor League pitching coach Marty Reed, Kuo kept at it. The discomfort persisted even early last season, when Kuo opened as a starter at Class A Vero Beach. He moved into the bullpen and around May, he said, the discomfort suddenly diminished. 但是朋友与小联盟投手教练Marty Reed的鼓舞，让郭泓志坚持下去。那种不舒服感在去年 球季初郭担任Vero Beach 1A先发投手时还依然存在，於是他就转为中继投手，然後到了 五月，不舒服感突然消失无踪了，郭如此说。 Meanwhile, Kuo was overpowering opponents, earning a promotion to powerhouse Double-A Jacksonville in July. After striking out 86 in 54 1/3 innings at the two stops, he skipped Triple-A and jumped to the Major Leagues. He made nine September appearances for the Dodgers, posted a 6.75 ERA, but struck out 10 in 5 1/3 innings. He appears to be the most dominant left-handed reliever the Dodgers have developed since Steve Howe. 同时期，郭泓志变成难以击倒的投手，於是七月份他就升到2A，1A加2A投了54又1/3局，K 掉86位打者，然後跳过3A直接晋升大联盟。他在九月份为道奇出赛九场，防御率6.75，5 又1/3局投球K掉10位打者。他变成了道奇历史上自从Steve Howe之後最有压制能力的左手 救援投手。 After returning from the World Baseball Classic, Kuo was nearly unhittable in spring games, overcoming his reputation for rehabs to make the Opening Day staff. 在代表台湾打完世界经典大赛後，郭在春训中的表现无与伦比，完全展现了复健的成果， 也因此进入了道奇开季的正选名单。 "All I knew about him was his injury history," said manager Grady Little. "We're still well aware we have to protect him. We can't use him day in and day out." 总教练Grady Little说对郭泓志的唯一印象是他受伤的历史，因此现在对他仍然仅记我们 必须好好爱惜保护他。我们绝对不能过度使用他。 --
