高速翻~ Kennedy stars, but Yanks' streak ends By Bryan Hoch TORONTO -- At this stage of Ian Kennedy's young career, every start is an opportunity to try out new approaches, test his limits and see what outcomes he might have to deal with. 今日剧场：阿甘"正"传 No one was expecting Kennedy to throw seven innings of one-hit ball. Once he did, few would have predicted it would end up in a Yankees loss. 孰知煮熟鸭子一样插了翅膀飞走 (拍~拍~) Frank Thomas' ninth-inning single off reliever Chris Britton scored Alex Rios with the winning run as the Blue Jays defeated the Yankees on Thursday, 2-1, snapping New York's seven-game winning streak and spoiling Kennedy's terrific third Major League start. 二度"重伤害" 让不理登砸了锅 "The third game felt a lot more like I was pitching anywhere else, like anywhere in the Minor Leagues," Kennedy said. "With one run, you're not going to win too many ballgames, scoring one run." 阿甘遥想往日小柠檬旧时光 As sharp as Kennedy was, Toronto starter A.J. Burnett brought a performance to match, scattering four hits over eight innings, striking out eight. He made just one glaring mistake: Johnny Damon tied the game in the sixth inning with his 11th home run, a soaring shot that landed in the second deck of seats in right field, beneath the restaurant windows. 蓝鸟A.J.B跟阿甘一样威 不过大门更秋 "I was just fortunate to be able to tie up the game," Damon said. "The guy is one of the best pitchers around. We had some chances. ... It seems like every time he pitches, he's pretty good. Tonight, he was spotting his fastball inside, up and down. His curveball is one of the best, also." 讨了便宜卖起乖 说你可爱就傻笑之大门说： 有啦...有啦...其实他直球跑进来也是跑上跑下滴...滑球也是滑Q的很..... After Luis Vizcaino recorded three outs in relief of Kennedy's seven-plus-inning gem, and Melky Cabrera grounded out with two aboard to end the top of the ninth inning, the Yankees turned to the right-hander Britton for the bottom half. 精品再现 尊爵不凡 Most of Britton's action has come with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season, but the Yankees were unable to use Kyle Farnsworth due to a neck injury. Vizcaino had not pitched recently due to various injuries, and Joba Chamberlain was unavailable after throwing 35 pitches in Wednesday's victory. 阿火伤了 精品最近刚修复 乔巴法则运作中 故诸君今日就看到不理登上来投 Had the Yankees taken the lead in the ninth inning, manager Joe Torre said he would have gone to closer Mariano Rivera, but instead he chose Britton over September callup Jose Veras because of the former's strike-throwing ability. 魔人替自己搬台阶 Unfortunately for Britton, two of his strikes caught too much of the plate. Rios started the inning with a sharp single and stole second before Thomas ripped a bouncing ball up the middle, scoring Rios ahead of Cabrera's throw on a slide into the plate. 呜呼哀哉 不理登两次都被抓到 "It's very disappointing," Britton said. "Nobody wants to lose." 不理登："武告虽".... The tough defeat stained Kennedy's impressive performance, though only in finality. For the first seven innings, Kennedy shone, showing Toronto the full arsenal of talent that prompted the Yankees to make him a first-round selection in 2006 from the University of Southern California. 阿甘在鸟群面前展示：瞎咪叫作 "真男人" "They're a good fastball-hitting team, so I tried to throw a lot of changeups and curveballs," Kennedy said. "Mix it up. That's what I've got to do. I don't throw 97 [mph], like Burnett." 接着说：鸟儿很会打快速球 所以我都马用一堆变速球跟曲球来钓小鸟 After the Thomas double, Kennedy retired 15 batters in a row before issuing a two-out walk to Adams in the sixth, then continued to blank the Jays before leaving with one runner on in the eighth. 重伤害尻一支二安之後 阿甘连续解决15只 离开投手丘之前 只留一只鸟在喘 "He seemed pretty poised," Thomas said. "He wasn't afraid of the strike zone like most young guys. He didn't seem intimidated at all. He pitched his game, hit his spots in and out. He kept the guys off balance, and that's big league pitching." 重伤害说："金奇怪捏 他看起来拢不惊 就...丢他的球" "I looked at the replay, and you could see the wall was right there as the ball was getting there," Torre said. "I'm sure he probably could have caught it, but I'm not saying he should have." 魔人说：咦?! 牛奶弟好像是可以接到这球的说 不过我没说他一定要接到啦..(装好人ing) Yet the Yankees could not get anything going. Derek Jeter followed the Damon sixth-inning home run with a single and Bobby Abreu walked, but Hideki Matsui lined out to first baseman Lyle Overbay, ending the threat. 大门之後 队长 阿布 马祖通通无功而返 In the end, though, the lack of run support couldn't be blamed on Kennedy, who continues to exceed all expectations after a quick rise this season all the way from Class A Tampa. Kennedy's performance will create a pleasant but difficult set of problems for Torre and pitching coach Ron Guidry, who plan to meet in Boston to discuss -- among other options -- the concept of utilizing a six-man pitching staff that includes Kennedy. 阿甘威起来 魔人跟古椎却苦恼 先发第六人 (放?不放?) With just 16 games remaining before the completion of the regular season, innings could grow tight, especially with Roger Clemens insisting that his right elbow is ready for duty and Mike Mussina all but begging for another chance to prove his revival. 火箭说："来吧我准备好了" 穆帅曰："教练我只想投场好球" Kennedy said he won't concern himself with such issues, preferring to leave any pondering over the difficult decisions to the Yankee brain trust. 阿甘场面话初登版："我没要紧啦 不计不较...." "If I keep doing well, they hopefully will find a way to put me out there," he said. "I can't really think about that." "就...把球投好咩"..... "应该很快就可以进去跟他们一起玩了吧" (洒花转圈~) http://newyork.yankees.mlb.com/index.jsp?c_id=nyy 洋基官网 --
