http://0rz.tw/b944o Kennedy can't command in comeback Righty allows five runs after being recalled from Triple-A By Bryan Hoch / MLB.com Kennedy重整旗鼓依然无法掌控全场 - 从3A回来後失五分 ST. PETERSBURG -- When the Yankees' road trip opened a city ago, Ian Kennedy couldn't help but glance at the scoreboard in whatever Triple-A park he was working, looking toward the day he could help the big league club again. Kennedy must wait at least another turn for that, and the Yankees' patience will be tested as well. Kennedy was hit for five runs in five innings on Thursday as New York dropped the series finale to the Rays, 5-2, at Tropicana Field. 当洋基开始客场之旅，在3A的Kennedy忍不住偷瞄球场记分板，期待某天能再度替洋基 帮上忙。Kennedy必须等待至少另一轮，这也将测试洋基的耐心。周四在光芒队主场， Kennedy在五局内失五分，洋基以5:2输了系列赛最後一场。 Freshly promoted from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, the right-hander ran into trouble immediately, as Akinori Iwamura led off with a home run. It didn't get a whole lot better from there, as Shawn Riggans also clubbed a two-run homer to send the reeling Yankees into last place in the American League East. 才刚从3A回来，这个右投手立刻陷入麻烦，一上场就被第一棒的岩村明宪敲出一发 全垒打。之後事情并没有改善，当Riggans敲了一发两分全垒打，这让洋基掉到美联 东区最後一名。 "Obviously, this is not the Ian Kennedy that we all saw last year," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "We need to find a way to get him back there." 「很明显，这不是去年的Kennedy。」教练Girardi说，「我们得想办法让他回复到 过去的样子。」 A first-round selection in the 2006 Draft, Kennedy made a meteoric rise to the big leagues last season, jumping all the way from Class A ball to make three strong September starts, including a victory. 在2006年的选秀里，Kennedy在第一轮就被挑走。去年他以流星般的速度窜升到大联盟， 从1A直升并在九月交出三场强力先发，其中包含一胜。 In nine professional starts this year, though, Kennedy has logged just one win -- a May 6 start at Triple-A Charlotte. He has suffered three defeats, all of which have come for the 20-22 Yankees. 然而，在今年的九场先发里，Kennedy只取得一胜─5/6在3A那场。他交出三场先发败， 这让洋基目前战绩为20胜22败。 "I felt like I was ready," Kennedy said. "I threw that one start [at Charlotte] and I just felt like I had the right mindset. Tonight didn't show it, but I felt like I was mentally a lot different, where I was still attacking guys." 「我以为自己准备好了。」Kennedy说，「我在3A投了一场，我以为自己已经具备正确的 心态。而今晚，它却没有表现出来。那时我以为我在心理上已经大大不同了，我仍 继续攻击打者。」 Given the rough 78-pitch outing, the Yankees were left to try to find signs of positive progress from Kennedy, who figures to be given additional chances after Kei Igawa flopped in a three-inning start last weekend and was finally demoted Thursday. 在78个投球数中，洋基试着找出Kennedy进步的正面讯息。在井川庆上周投三局被轰下场 後，Kennedy得到额外的表现机会，而井川庆终於在周四被下放了。 Kennedy allowed a run in the third inning on a bases-loaded, no-outs sacrifice fly to Carl Crawford, and said that would have been one of the situations where he would have probably given up at least two or three runs last month. Instead, Kennedy settled down after the long fly ball and got a groundout and strikeout to escape. Kennedy在第三局满垒无人出局，Crawford高飞牺牲打替光芒得到一分。 如果在上个月，相同的情况可能会失至少两到三分。但Kennedy安定下来，以一个长远 高飞球、滚地出局，加上三振逃脱困境。 "I think I belong here and I want to work out my problems here," Kennedy said. "I understand it's a business and you want to win. You get sent down and you work out things down there, and you come right back and you still aren't the same. It's frustrating sometimes." 「我想我是属於这里的，我想在这解决我的问题。」Kennedy说，「我了解这是职业 球赛，人人都想要赢。你被下放、解决问题，然後你回来，仍然不是原本的你。 有时这真的令人感到挫折。」 The Yankees would like to see more variety from Kennedy, who got through five subpar innings with basically just two effective pitches -- his fastball and changeup. Tampa Bay took a 4-0 lead in the fourth on Riggans' third home run, a two-run shot to left. 洋基想看Kennedy跟下放前有更多的不同。这五局，他有效的球种基本上只有两个─ 快速球和变速球。第四局光芒队Riggans击出个人第三只全垒打，两分进帐，取得 4:0领先。 Kennedy also allowed a B.J. Upton sacrifice fly in the fifth before exiting, and when informed of Girardi's analysis that he wasn't the Kennedy of '07, the rookie said he doesn't feel as far off as some might think. 在第五局下场前，Kennedy也被Upton击出牺牲打。当他被告知Girardi认为「这不是07年的 Kennedy」，菜鸟说，他不觉得差距有某些人想的那麽大。 "I think mentally I'm going after guys," Kennedy said. "Tonight I only had one walk and that was after battling 3-2. That was the main thing I was having trouble with, and I think I'm going in the right direction." 「我想，在心理上我正追赶其他人了。」Kennedy说，「今晚我只有一个保送，而且那是 在满球数後拿到的。那是我当时的麻烦，我想我正走在对的方向。」 The same cannot be said for the Yankees offense, which managed just two runs off of Rays starting pitching in the entire series, and none on Thursday facing Scott Kazmir. The Yankees have lost six of nine. 但是洋基的攻击就不是这样了，在整个系列赛中，洋基对先发投手最多只拿到两分， 而且面对Kazmir一分未得。最近九场比赛洋基输了六场。 "You expect to score a lot of runs with this offense, and it has not happened on a consistent basis," Girardi said. "We need to figure it out, all of us -- coaches, me, players, everyone -- how you turn it around." 「有这样的进攻能力，你期待可以拿下许多分数─这没有发生，攻击不连贯。」Girardi 说，「我们需要想想如何扭转，每个人都要─教练们、我、球员，每个人。」 One day after the Rays announced a three-year, $28.5 million contract extension for Kazmir, the left-hander was splendid in shutting the Yankees out through six innings. Kazmir took a no-hitter into the fourth inning and scattered three hits overall -- all singles -- walking three and striking out three. 在光芒队宣布与Kazmir以三年$28.5 million续约，这位左投用六局让洋基静悄悄， 直到第四局都还是无安打状态。他总共被击出三支安打─全都是一垒安，保送三人、 三振三人。 "You look at a guy like Kazmir today, and he threw 50 fastballs in a row," Girardi said. "We get one hit. That's not good. We're a better hitting club than this. They threw the ball well and did the things well that have to be done to win three out of four. We did not." 「看看今天的Kazmir，他连续丢了50个快速球。」Girardi说，「我们只击出一只， 这不好，我们事实上能表现得更好。他们把球投好、把事情做好，四场赢了三场。但我们 没有。」 The Yankees broke through with two runs in the seventh, facing reliever Gary Glover. Robinson Cano opened the inning with a single and moved up on a Jose Molina hit before Melky Cabrera drilled a run-scoring single to center. 在第七局洋基打破困境，面对Glover拿到两分。Cano一开始击出一垒安打，并用Molina的 打击推进，然後Cabrera敲了一支穿过内野的一垒安打，得分。 Derek Jeter followed with another hit up the middle to bring home New York's second run, but the Yankees went quietly in the eighth against Dan Wheeler and Troy Percival -- who blew a save on Tuesday vs. New York -- came back to strike out two in the ninth as he recorded his 10th save in 12 chances. Jeter接着另一支安打，把洋基第二名跑者送回本垒，但第八局洋基面对Wheeler和 Percival时静悄悄─後者在周二搞砸了救援，今晚在九局上用两个三振达到本季个人 第10次救援成功。 "We had some good at-bats this series, but unfortunately that doesn't really matter," said Johnny Damon, who went 0-for-5 Thursday and is hitless in his last 13 at-bats. 「这个系列我们有些好的打数，不幸地这起不了作用。」Damon说，他这场是五打数 零安打，最近13打数没安打。 "There's not much luck going on right now. We've got to keep battling. These guys in here, we're all tough." 「现在没有许多好运，我们得继续奋战。在这里的家伙们，我们都很不屈不挠。」 --
