Former Yankee : hurler and current YES analyst David Cone said he believes the key for the : soft-tossing Kennedy is throwing first-pitch strikes. Kennedy本周六即将面对印地安人的强力打线。前洋基投手，目前的YES球评David Cone说 :球速不快的Kennedy能否抢下第一个好球数是关键。 : "He is falling behind consistently and finding himself in a lot of hitters' : count," Cone said. "That's kind of recipe for a disaster if you are not a : power pitcher - a pitcher that cannot make a hitter swing and miss." Cone说:他跟打者对决时总是球数落後。如果你不是个能让打者挥空的强力投手，那抢下 第一个好球数就是你的窍门。 : The struggles of Kennedy and Hughes were emphasized earlier this week when : Hank Steinbrenner insisted the Yankees' best young gun, Joba Chamberlain,be : moved from the bullpen to the rotation. though he supported Kennedy and : Hughes, a statement like that is not likely made if they were both 3-0 with : 2.80 ERAs. 这星期稍早，当Hank Steinbrenner嚷着要把Joba Chamberlain移回先发时，这凸显了 Kennedy与Hughes投不好的问题。虽然Hank先前是支持他们，但如果他们拿得出像是3胜0 负2.80防御率这种成绩，他现在也就没话说了。 : "It's a real welcome-to-New York moment for the pitchers," Cone said."That's : why it is different playing with the Yankees than anybody else. With Hank : taking over, I think people are all trying to get a feel of what the chain of : command is going to be." Cone说:这就是在洋基投球的震撼教育，而这也是为什麽在洋基打球跟在其他地方打球不 一样的原因。当Hank接掌後，我认为每个人都想知道他到底要怎麽做。 : Kennedy is 0-2 with a 9.64 ERA in his four starts. Cone does not think Kennedy : should be yanked from the starting rotation. But a bad start against the : Indians, and the 23-year-old could be in trouble. Kennedy开季四场的成绩为0胜2负9.64的自责分率。Cone仍不认为Kennedy应该被拉出先发 轮值，但如果接下来对上印地安人又投不好，那麽这个23岁的小子可就有麻烦了。 : "It is probably too soon to panic, but at the same time you don't want to see : these young pitchers go backwards," Cone said. "That's the dilemma." Cone说:现在担心还太早，但同时你也不愿看到这些年轻投手被下放。这实在是个两难。 : "If you can't get out of the third inning and you're hurting the team and : your emotional development, then possibly an adjustment may need to be made." 如果你没有办法撑过三局那你就是在扯球队的後腿，而且你也不会好受。那麽阵容可能就 会有所调整了。 : The Yankees and their fans clearly remember the last time they had one of : their young studs on the mound in Cleveland. In Game 2 of the ALDS, : Chamberlain came in to protect a 1-0 lead, but allowed the tying run after : being attacted by an infestation of Lake Erie midges. 洋基跟他们的球迷都还清楚记得Chamberlain去年在克里夫兰的投球。在美联分区系列赛 第二场比赛中，他在洋基1比0领先时上场守成，但却因受到伊利湖蚊虫入侵的影响，失了 一分使得比赛僵持。 : The Yankees cannot afford to leave Cleveland without a win in this four-game : series. The same way they could not afford to leave there down 2-0 in the ALDS : last years. 洋基绝不允许这次在克里夫兰的系列赛四战皆墨，就像是不允许去年美联分区系列赛中输 了前两场一样。 : "Idon't think this team can afford to fall 14 games behind like last year," : Cone said. "If they can kind of hover around .500 until that winning streak : comes, then they can make some progress." Cone说:我不认为洋基队会让去年落後14场的情形重演。如果他们能保持五成胜率直到机 会来为止，那麽他们今年将会有所进步。 --
