"Any time they give me an opportunity to throw, I'm going to say, 'Yes.'" 他说　他坐在牛棚15 天都没工作　所以一有机会　他就说　好 The 25-year-old left-hander's reward for 2 2/3 innings of nine-run, eight-hit ball? An option to Triple-A, as the Yankees restocked their bullpen for Boston by promoting right-hander Chris Britton from Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. 韩恩的成绩...送回去3A 叫上Chris Britton Britton returned to New York for his fourth stint with the Major League club this season, lending the Yankees a durable arm that had excelled in Minor League duty. Britton was 4-2 with eight saves and a 2.51 ERA in 37 appearances at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. 这是他本季第四次回到大联盟 "I was just going to go back down there and keep on doing what I'm doing," Britton said. "I was trying to stay sharp, just in case I got a call back up." Britton场面话 Though optioning Henn leaves the Yankees without a left-handed reliever, Torre said the team would be able to lean upon right-hander Luis Vizcaino in a tight spot to get a left-handed batter out if necessary. Historically, Vizcaino has held lefties to a .230 batting average, though this year they have hit him at a .248 clip. 虽然牛棚没有左投手　但老托说必要时可以用LV 他被左打平均打击率.230 但今年是.248 In the meantime, the Yankees are moderately curious to see what they can garner from Britton, a pitcher with a husky build who limited opponents to a .236 average at Triple-A. 洋基队也好奇Britton的表现 "He seems to get people out," Torre said. "We noticed that here last time; even though he's not overpowering, he must have late movement on the ball. They weren't hitting it on the fat part of the bat." 老托说　他似乎可以让打者出局　 Britton, who learned of his promotion Monday after Scranton/Wilkes-Barre completed its 11-2 victory over Ottawa, had been the subject of much discussion among fans on Internet message boards and blogs, citing his solid Triple-A numbers as a reason to consider his promotion. 很多网路乡民讨论Britton But Britton, who appeared in 52 games last season for the Baltimore Orioles before coming over in the Jaret Wright trade, said he was unaware of the frequent posts, which gained momentum as Yankees relievers slogged through a disappointing 2-5 road trip to Anaheim and Detroit. Britton是和金莺队交换Jaret Wright来到洋基 "I really don't use the Internet too much, except for sending e-mails back home," Britton said. 他说　除了Email回家　他不上网 Home, to Fort Worth, Texas, is where Henn is believed to be heading. His wife, Tiffany, expects to give birth to the couple's first child, a daughter named Tatum, on Sunday. Unable to pitch for at least two days because of his extensive workload on Monday, Henn said he hoped to be present for the birth before joining the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre club. 韩恩要回家　因为老婆快要生了　 Moose pushed out: Before Tuesday's game, Torre and Guidry had a conversation with Mike Mussina to evaluate the struggling right-hander's physical and mental state, revealing to the veteran that his next start will be skipped in favor of highly touted prospect Ian Kennedy, who has impressed at Triple-A recently after beginning this season at Class A. 老托和老古和穆帅讨论他的状况　但要从3A拉上甘乃迪 "He was disappointed," Torre said of Mussina. "That's one of the tough conversations to have to have. He was down about it. But he's a teammate -- he was out there at the end of the game, shaking hands like everybody else." 老托说穆帅很失望　这样的谈话很难　但他还是球队的一员　赛後还是和大家握手 就像其他人一样 Mussina was hit hard for the third consecutive start on Monday at Detroit, lasting just three innings and allowing six runs, marking the first time in his career that the 38-year-old has surrendered at least six runs in three consecutive starts. 穆帅最近三场被打得很惨　可说是生涯最惨 Most baffling to Torre, the manager said, is that Mussina's pregame warmups in each of the three starts -- one at New York, one at Anaheim and one at Detroit -- were all considered good and as close to normal as possible. Mussina did not speak to reporters before Tuesday's game, but his postgame comments in Detroit left the impression of a pitcher with shaken confidence. 这三场的赛前　穆帅都感觉不错　他和记者的谈话可以感觉到他的信心动摇 "Right now, I let go of [the ball] and I don't feel anything good is going to happen," Mussina said before boarding the team charter flight. "It's tough to pitch that way. You can't play the game that way, to feel you have no control over anything, and that's how I feel right now." 穆帅发表谈话 Torre suggested that because Mussina appeared to have little physically wrong -- he did hint that the strained right hamstring that sidelined him in April is still "sore" -- the recent struggles could have more to do with the veteran's mental standing. 虽然穆帅曾表示四月受伤的部位还有点酸痛　但最近的挣扎应该和心理状态比较有关 "It could be an emotional thing, trying to come into the game and trying to do too much," Torre said. "It's easy for me to be that voice of reason saying, 'Forget about that last start.' You still have to go out there and make it better." 老托说　这跟情绪有关　太用力　说忘掉上一场比赛继续下去　这很简单 That's the life: Hideki Matsui has spoken of the designated hitter role as a nice treat, something that he enjoys in moderation. But with both of his knees aching, Matsui is getting more of a taste of DH than he may have anticipated. 松井因为膝盖痛　所以还蛮喜欢打DH Johnny Damon assumed Matsui's spot in left field while Matsui gave DH a whack again on Tuesday, the fourth time in the last six games that Matsui has served that role. Matsui has been more productive in his limited designated hitter duty, batting .338 with five home runs and 23 RBIs in his first 19 games there. Matsui is batting .299 with 18 home runs and 67 RBIs in 99 games where he has played the outfield. 松井打DH 大门就守左外野　而松井打DH成绩很好 Bombers bits: The Yankees are 29-11 in their last 40 home games. ... Monday's game at Detroit marked the Yankees' largest margin of defeat in club history for a road shutout loss. ... Scranton/Wilkes-Barre established a franchise record for attendance on Monday and will finish its first season in the Yankees system with a total attendance of 580,908. 洋基最近40场比赛29胜11负 星期一的比赛是队史上....(**不想提**) 农场3A观众人数创纪录 Coming up: The Yankees continue their mid-week series with the Red Sox on Wednesday, sending right-hander Roger Clemens (5-5, 4.34 ERA) to the mound for the first Boston start of The Rocket's New York reprise. The Red Sox counter with right-hander Josh Beckett (16-5, 3.21 ERA), with first pitch from Yankee Stadium scheduled for 7:05 p.m. ET on the YES Network and ESPN2. 接下来　还是对红袜 老克vsBeckett (**洋基打线请让Beckett胜投维持在16 并重温一下去年当全垒打王的快感吧!**) Bryan Hoch is a reporter for MLB.com.
