Mariano Rivera was there, too, sitting helplessly without a save opportunity against the Athletics. And starters Roger Clemens, Andy Pettitte and Mike Mussina were all present, watching as the Yankees came back from that deficit to beat the A's and ultimately advance to the World Series. 队长和波杀大在2001年也曾在分区季後赛陷入2-0的落後 Mo也无助地在那儿对运动家 没有救援机会 先发投手老克派帅穆帅也在 看着洋基逆袭 一路杀进世界大赛 "That is the first thing that we looked to [Friday] night in the clubhouse, and the first thing that goes through your mind is, you know, we've done this," Pettitte said. "We can do this. We can pull this off." 派帅说 我们以前做过 我们可以做到 Pettitte lost Game 2 of that series, and he didn't get another chance. But the Yankees did, thanks in large part to Derek Jeter's now-fabled flip play in Game 3. With his team leading, 1-0, and Jeremy Giambi chugging home on a potential game-tying hit, Jeter raced across the diamond and grabbed Shane Spencer's errant relay throw, then shoveled it home for Posada to apply the tag and preserve the lead. 当年赛况的回顾 The Yankees went on to win three straight games and come within outs of winning their fourth consecutive World Series. And that's where so much of Pettitte's value finds its roots. He's a link to those days, at a time when the Yankees very much need to draw on any optimism they can. 派帅扮演重要角色 Pettitte -- like Jeter, like Posada, like Rivera -- has seen firsthand that impossible situations don't always have to be just that. 就像队长波杀大Mo 都曾亲身办到不可能的逆袭 "We've done it before," Pettitte said, "so I feel like we can do it. My mind will not allow me to go there and say that we're not going to pull this series off." 派帅还是说 我们以前做过 我们可以做到 Do the shuffle: Yankees manager Joe Torre said he has given thought to shaking up his lineup for Game 3, though he's "not sure where." He noted only Jason Giambi as a possibility to crack a starting nine that remained unchanged over the first two games. 老托表示 他要调整第三场的打线 可能把大吉放进来 On paper, Torre seemingly can't go wrong. Giambi owns a .429 lifetime average off Cleveland starter Jake Westbrook and a .500 mark off Indians pitching this season. And Hideki Matsui, who had been starting at designated hitter thanks to his sore right knee, holds a .455 average off Westbrook. 现在老托没空间犯错 大吉生涯对Westbrook打击率 .429 本季对印地安人的投手是.500 松井生涯对Westbrook打击率.455 If Matsui is not well enough to play the field, Torre would have to forgo Doug Mientkiewicz's defense and start Giambi at first base, which he hasn't played in more than two weeks, or he could elect to simply sit Matsui and start Giambi at DH. 如果松井没法上场守备 老托可能牺牲小明的守备让大吉守一垒 或者让松井休息 让大吉打DH "I'm just thinking about getting his bat in there, and the fact of what he brings to the table," Torre said of Giambi. "Just because he hasn't played doesn't mean we necessarily ignore what he can do for us." 老托说 他在想办法 要用大吉的棒子 Job security: Should the Yankees lose this series to the Indians, there's little doubt that Torre -- again -- will take some heat. His contract is up after this season, and there's plenty of uncertainty -- again -- as to whether he'll be asked back or not. 如果洋基输掉这个系列赛 今年合约到期的老托......... Pettitte, for one, has a $16 million player option on his contract for next season, and he made it clear on Saturday that Torre's job status would have an influence on his own situation. "That would definitely be something that would factor into it," Pettitte said. 派帅明年有16M的合约选择权 星期六表示老托在不在会影响 Bug eyed: Clemens spoke out against the decision to play through the swarms of insects that descended on Jacobs Field on Friday night, and he said that had it been his choice, events might have unfolded differently. 老克对星期五的虫虫危机发表意见 "It's hard enough for our young kids to go out there and concentrate in that situation to have something like that happen," Clemens said. "I would have probably pulled us off the field. If you got to see it up close on TV, which I happened to see [for] half-inning on the television, you could really see how annoying it was, and you had to really heighten your concentration through something like that." 他说 我们家的年轻人在那种状况下很难专心 如果是他 可能会把大家都叫下场 他刚好看到电视 发现那些虫虫实在恼人 Concentrated or not, Joba Chamberlain threw more than half of his pitches for balls while bugs swarmed around him, and he allowed the tying run to score on one of his two wild pitches. 小张丢了一堆坏球 包括两次暴投 丢了那分追平分 "It's easy to say now because it only lasted about 40 minutes," Clemens said. "But if you're in the dugout or watching as a fan there at the game, you really didn't really see. I don't know how much you all saw. I don't watch replays or any of this stuff, but I did see it on TV in close-ups of the guys, and it was incredible. Like I said, it was hard enough." 老克说 现在讲是很容易啦 那持续了40分钟 但在休息室或现场的球迷真的没看到 我是没看到 但我在电视的特写镜头上看到 很夸张 真的很难专心 All hands on deck: With the Yankees facing an elimination game on Sunday, Torre said he would consider using any pitcher other than Chien-Ming Wang, who threw a regular bullpen session on Saturday. 星期天要面临淘汰 老托表示 牛棚里他会考虑除了王建民之外的所有投手 Torre specifically mentioned Phil Hughes and Mike Mussina as possibilities to provide long relief. Should Mussina pitch, that would knock him out of the equation for Monday's Game 4 -- should there be a Game 4 -- and all but force the Yankees to start Wang Monday on short rest. 包括穆帅和大帝担任长中继 也表示第四战要在短休息天数中 使用王建民 The Good Sheppard: General manager Brian Cashman gave his regards to public-address announcer Bob Sheppard, who will miss his first playoff game since 1951 with the bronchial infection that also sidelined him for the last seven home games of the regular season. 现金人问候Sheppard The Yankees all signed an oversized "get well" card last week and sent it to Sheppard's house. They hope he'll be healthy enough to return, should the Yankees advance beyond the ALDS. 全队也签了问候卡片 希望他早日康复 在分区季後赛後回来播报 "We're hoping to see him sooner than later," Cashman said. "But he means a great deal to this place and this franchise -- a special individual. One of the best people I've ever met, and we'll miss him." 现金人场面话 Bombers bits: The Yankees didn't take their scheduled batting practice on Saturday, but they will hit before Sunday's Game 3. "We just decided to bag it for today," Torre said. "We just have to go out and win a game." ... Pettitte said he would be ready to pitch Game 5 on regular rest, which would likely happen only if Wang started Game 4. "I told them I'd pitch whenever they want me to pitch," Pettitte said. ... Melky Cabrera's home run on Friday night was the first postseason hit of his career. He's now 1-for-11 in the playoffs. 星期六没有打击练习 但星期天第三场赛前有 派帅说他准备好第五场的先发 星期五的全垒打是小卡布季後赛的第一发安打 Anthony DiComo is an associate reporter for MLB.com.
