http://0rz.tw/012RU MLB官网针对这两场中区领先者的对决写了一篇好玩的文章 有点酸XD 全文尝试翻译如下 *************************************************************************** Mark Shapiro hasn't paid much attention to the Tigers. Maybe he should. "It would probably be healthy for me to do, actually," the Indians' general manager said. Mark并没有太在意老虎的近况，嗯..他应该要那麽做的 "事实上，这（对老虎留意）也许会让我好过一点" 这位印地安人的经理说道 It's healthy because the Tigers' recent struggles have helped offset those of Shapiro's Tribe, which has been laboring throughout the second half. As the two teams endure their most woeful stretch simultaneously, they have both been able to remain within striking distance of each other in the American League Central standings. 会使他好过一点原因是，老虎们最近的低潮，对下半季陷入窘境的笑脸人 而言是好事一桩。 "We're similar," Shapiro said, "in that we're both probably disappointed in our play the last few weeks." "在低潮这件事上，我们两队都差不多"Shapiro说道"我们都不满意全队最近的状况" As the two clubs meet up at Jacobs Field for an important two-game series that begins Tuesday, they'll be looking to right their respective ships and gain some ground in the standings. 当两队要在Jacob's Field正面对决时，两队都期望要将状况调整回来并且在分 区中能取得领先的地位 A look at those standings reveals some surprises. The AL Central hasn't been as competitive as had been imagined at the start of the year. "When we play other teams, I don't feel our division is any worse," Shapiro said. "But when I look at the records, I'm a little surprised." 人们看了战绩排名後才发现，美联中区并不如季前众人所期待那般的充满竞争力。 "当我们与其他球队交手时，我完全不觉得我们分区的球队不如别人" Shapiro说着 "但是当我看到纪录时，我有点吃惊" The Indians' rotation is lined up perfectly for this two-game set. The club will be throwing its two top arms -- C.C. Sabathia and Fausto Carmona -- at the Tigers. Though division games obviously carry the most weight, the Indians have tried not to treat any one series as any more important than the others. That's the same focus the club will take in these two games. "Our fate is not going to be determined by who we play," Shapiro said. "It's going to be determined by how we play." 笑脸人接下来两战的先发轮值分别是C.C. Sabathia和Fausto Carmona，是目前阵中 最好的两位投手，这对於二连战而言是最好的安排。 虽然对上同分区的球队在胜负上对排名有很大的影响，笑脸人们会试着不要把某个 系列赛看的太重要。这表示接下来的两战笑脸人会抱持着平常心去应战。 "我们的命运不是掌握在对手手中" Shapiro如是说 "我们的表现才能决定球队的命运" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 以上，如有错误 语意不通 辞不达意之处，请版上先进不吝指正并多多包涵 --
