What they didn't know is if they would have enough starting pitching. 在进入 2007 球季时，大都会知道他们将连续两年在国联拥有强势的攻击火力。但他们 不知道自己是否拥有稳定的先发投手。 Thanks in large part to John Maine, that question has been answered. Maine earned NL Pitcher of the Month honors on Wednesday after finishing April with a perfect 4-0 record. The 25-year-old leads the Major Leagues with a 1.35 ERA, allowing just five earned runs in 33 1/3 innings. 多亏了 John Maine，这个疑问有了解答。Maine 在周三以他完美的 4-0 纪录夺得国联当 月最佳投手的荣耀。这位 25 岁的投手以 1.35 的自责分领先大联盟其他投手，在 33 又 1/3 局的投球中只有五分的自责失分。 It was an impressive start to the season, but Maine isn't about to let the early success go to his head, because he knows it's going to be a long season. 这是个令人印象深刻的球季开始，但 Maine 不会因现在的成功而自满，因为他知道这是 一个很长的球季。 "I've still got a lot of stuff to work on," Maine said. "I'm pleased, [but] I've got five more months. I've just got to keep it going. I've got to worry about May now." Maine 说，＂我还有许多方面需要努力。我很高兴，[但]这球季还有五个月。我必须打完 整个球季。我现在要担心的是五月。＂ Maine becomes the first Mets hurler to win the monthly award since Al Leiter in June 2000. Maine was 6-5 with a 3.60 ERA in the 2006 regular season and pitched even better in the playoffs, going 1-0 with a 2.64 ERA in three starts. Maine 成为大都会继 Al Leiter 在 2000 年六月获得当月最佳投手後再次获奖的人。 Maine 在 2006 年缴出了 6-5 的成绩及 3.60 的自责分，而他在季後赛的表现甚至更突 出，他在三场季後赛先发中缴出了 1-0 及 2.64 自责分的成绩。 "After what we saw [from Maine] in the playoffs ... a lot of us aren't that shocked," said Mets closer Billy Wagner. "He's got that ability." 大都会的救援投手 Billy Wagner 说，＂我们看到 [Maine 在]季後赛的表现之後 ...... 我们大都没有太过讶异。他拥有那样的能力。＂ One of the things Maine attributes for his hot start has been his ability to pitch late into games. Maine is averaging 6 2/3 innings per start so far this season. Maine 将他耀眼的表现归因於他可以吃下很多局数的能力。Maine 在本季每场先发可以吃 下 6 2/3 局。 "I'm learning to [stay in games] longer," Maine said. "I think I threw too many fastballs last year. Too many were getting fouled off and running up my pitch count. Now I'm in better shape and throwing better pitches. I think I get six more batters per game. If I'm still throwing well, that's two more innings. That really helps." Maine 说，＂我正在学习如何[留在场上]更久。我想我去年用了太多的速球。他们常被打 成界外，而使我的用球数增加。我现在拥有更好的状况，而且可以投更多球。我觉得每场 比赛我可以多面对六个打者。假如我投的不错的话，那样就可以多投两局。这样帮助很大 。＂ On Wednesday, Maine and Jose Reyes became the first Mets teammates to win the Player and Pitcher of the Month awards since Dwight Gooden and Gary Carter in September 1985. 周三，Maine 和 Jose Reyes 成为大都会继 1985 年九月 Dwight Gooden 及 Gary Carter 後再次同时获得当月最佳球员及最佳投手。 Other pitchers who received votes were Atlanta's Tim Hudson, who went 3-0 with a 1.40 ERA, and San Diego's Jake Peavy, who went 3-1 with a 2.06 ERA and 46 strikeouts. 其他获选的投手有，亚特兰大的 Tim Hudson，投出了 3-0 自责分 1.40 的成绩，圣地牙 哥的 Jake Peavy，投出了 3-1 自责分 2.06 及 46 次三振的成绩。 Gregor Chisholm is an associate reporter for MLB.com.
