Dodgers rally past Mets *[1;30mKuo fans eight in relief; DeWitt hits inside-the-park homer By: Ken Gurnick / MLB.com ================================================================== Unhittable is a word too loosely thrown around to describe pitchers, but in the middle innings of Tuesday night's game, it described Hong-Chih Kuo and it was no exaggeration. The Dodgers reliever, possessor of the electric yet brittle arm, won a game his team seemed destined to lose. He took over for Hiroki Kuroda with two on and two out trailing by a run in the fourth, and put down the inning by striking out Carlos Delgado and Angel Pagan on three pitches each. 用打拢否这个词来形容投手已被滥用，但在星期二晚上比赛的中段， 这样形容郭泓志，一点都不夸张。 道奇的中继投手，用他震撼人心却脆弱的手臂， 替他的球队赢了一场本似大势已去的比赛。 When Blake DeWitt's two-run, inside-the-park homer gave the Dodgers the lead and an eventual 5-4 comeback decision over the Mets, it resulted in Kuo's second victory in a week, giving him four career wins, which equals the number of operations he's had on that left elbow. Kuo struck out Brian Schneider leading off the fifth, caught Jose Reyes and Ryan Church looking that inning, then fanned three of the next five batters. His final line: 3 2/3 innings, eight strikeouts, no hits. His first 10 pitches were strikes. It took 11 batters and 45 pitches until a Met put a pitch into play in fair territory. Kuo's radar-gun readings topped at 98 mph and were consistently at 96. Blake DeWitt的两分打点场内全垒打帮道奇取得领先， 且最终後来居上以5-4强取大都会队。 这成就了小小郭本星期的第二场胜投，也是他生涯的第四胜； 跟他左手肘动过的手术次数一样。 郭在五局上先以三振Brian Schneider起头， 又在该局让Jose Reyes跟Ryan Church分别拿香。 并接连三振了之後的五名打者。 他的最後成绩：3 2/3局，八个三振，没有被安打。头十个球都是好球。 大都会用了十一名打者还有四十五个球数才把球打进界内。 雷达枪显示郭的最快球速为98mph，并持续的在96间游走。 Pitching coach Rick Honeycutt undercut the wow-factor when he said that the club had the Dodger Stadium radar gun re-calibrated this week and the readings went up, but Kuo's results were impressive enough. "He came in and just threw fastballs and went after us," said Mets manager Willie Randolph. "He's what made the difference in the game. After they brought him in, he really kind of shut us down." 投手教练Rick Honeycutt泼了大家一点冷水。 他说球团这礼拜在校准道奇球场的雷达枪，而数值变快了； 不过郭的表现已经够精彩了。 『他进来然後就用速球对付我们』，大都会总教练Willie Randolph说。 『他是这场比赛改变的原因。在他们派他上场後，他基本上把我们给关机了』。 Kuo must like pitching against the Mets because three of his four career wins are against them. His maiden victory was Sept. 8, 2006, a gutsy six scoreless innings in raucous Shea Stadium against a powerhouse team. He tried to duplicate that win in Game 2 of the NL Division Series at Shea that year and was the losing pitcher, charged with two runs in 4 1/3 innings while the Dodgers were scratching out only one run off Tom Glavine in a 4-1 defeat. Kuo made history that night for starting a postseason game with the fewest Major League wins (one). He beat the Mets again last year, when he also slugged his only Major League homer and did it with a flourish, flipping the bat like Reggie Jackson. 郭一定很爱对上大都会，因为他生涯四胜有三场来自於他们。 他的处女胜是在2006年九月八号，在Shea Stadium球迷的喧嚣里， 用六局无失分好投在强打部队手中夺下一场有Guts的胜投。 他试过在同一年的国联分区赛，再度在大都会主场复制这样的胜利， 他是该场的败战投手，4 1/3局，两分自责分。 道奇只在葛拉文手上拿下一分，以四比一输球。 郭在那场比赛写下历史，成为季後赛最少胜的先发投手（一胜）。 他在去年又打败大都会一次，那场比赛他也在打出大联盟生涯第一只全垒打後 像Reggie Jackson那样的华丽的甩棒。 Excuse Kuo if the satisfaction occasionally shows, because nothing about his career has been ordinary. He was signed out of Taiwan for $1.25 million as a teenager, blew out his elbow in his first professional game after striking out seven of the 10 batters he faced and it's been a nightmare ride ever since, including the first five years he spent trying to get healthy, when he pitched a total of 42 1/3 innings (averaging less than nine innings a year). He's nothing if not persistent. He signed in 1999, meaning he's been in the organization longer than any current active Dodger. That year, Kevin Malone was general manager, Davey Johnson the field manager and Gary Sheffield and Eric Karros hit 34 homers each. 别用好投只是偶然的出现而怪罪小小郭，因为他的职业生涯一点都不平凡。 他签下一百二十五万美金的签约金时还是个青少年， 在第一场职业比赛就把手肘投爆，虽说他面对的首十位打者有七个被他三振。 这之後就是一场恶梦之旅，包括花了前五年复健， 其中只投了42 1/3局（每年平均投不到九局）。 只能用自强不息来形容他。 1999年签的约，这代表了他是现今道奇球团最老鸟的人。 那时候Kevin Malone还是球队经理，Davey Johnson是总教练， 而Gary Sheffield跟Eric Karros各打了34只全垒打。 Kuo's journey to the Major Leagues hit one pothole after another. He missed 2003 entirely, was taken off the Major League roster at one point and could have been selected by any club in the Rule 5 Draft. When his rehab stalled for the umpteenth time, he had to be talked out of quitting the game. He's has often credited Darren Dreifort (two Tommy John elbow reconstruction surgeries) and Eric Gagne (one) for their advice and counsel to keep him going. Now, here he is, accepting of the relief role he previously said made him uncomfortable because it did not allow enough time to warm up his elbow. "I've gotten used to it," he said. "I feel very comfortable right now." 郭踏上大联盟的旅程一路坎坷。错过了整个2003球季， 曾被拿出大联盟名单并可被任何球团用『Rule 5 Draft』挑走。 在经过数不清的复健挫折後，他曾需要人苦劝才打消退休的念头。 他常把他的继续努力归功於Darren Drifort（两个TJ手术）， 还有Eric Gagne（一个TJ）两位的劝告跟建议。 现在他接下了他曾说不适应的中继角色（热身时间不够）。 『我已经可以习惯了』，他说。『我现在感到非常舒服。』 So does manager Joe Torre, who in Kuo has a second left-hander who can pitch multiple innings and overpower left-handed hitters as well as right-handers. "I really like him where he is," Torre said when asked if Kuo, who's already made three starts this year, might make more. "A weapon like that in the middle of the game -- as a starting pitcher, the thing is, he barely got to the fifth inning. Innings four to seven are so important." Joe Torre也是。加上郭，他有了第二个可以吃局数， 又对左右打者都有压制力的左投手。 『我对把他放在这个位置非常满意』，当Torre在被问到郭今年是否可能再度先发时说。 『在比赛中段有这样的武器---，事实是，他在当先发投手时老投不过五局， 第四局到第七局的比赛太重要了』。 Honeycutt said Kuo had been using too many off-speed pitches earlier this year. "Maybe now he's just raring back and letting it go," he said. "Sometimes he likes to show he's a control guy. I haven't seen that look in his eye in a long time until tonight." Honeycutt说郭在今年一开始时投了太多变化球。 『他现在渴望回来并敢放手一搏』，他说。 『他有时候想要表现他有掌控比赛的力量，我在今晚的比赛前， 已经很久没有在他的眼中看到这样的眼神了』。 Kuo provided the bridge to the back end of the Dodgers bullpen, where Jonathan Broxton and Takashi Saito closed it out, but not without some drama. Broxton allowed a two-out double to Ryan Church in the ninth, but caught David Wright looking at a 99-mph strike three and showed a rare display of emotion with a fist-pump. Saito allowed a pair of two-out singles in the ninth, then caught Luis Castillo looking at a strike-three slider for his fourth save. 郭为道奇的牛棚舖好了路，让Jonathan Broxton跟Takashi Saito关了门， 虽然说还有有剧场出现。 Broxton让Ryan Church在八局上两出局时打出二垒安打， 但让David Wright看着99mph的速球拿香。 这个三振时的拉弓让Broxton露出了少见的情绪。 Saito在九局上两出局的时候连续被打出两只一垒安打， 接着用一个滑球让Luis Castillo拿香，也拿下了自己的第四次救援成功。 --
