Having watched the first two uneven starts of Chien-Ming Wang’s comeback,
Nationals pitching coach Steve McCatty has gleaned two prevailing opinions:
Wang can still be an effective starting pitcher, but he has to change the way
he pitches by reverting to his old approach.
投教:王爸还是一位很有效率的投手,不过前提是他要继续丢他的伸卡。
As Wang became one of the best pitchers in the American League in his best
years with the Yankees, he relied heavily on a bowling ball sinker. He was,
Nationals pitching coordinator Spin Williams said, “a one-pitch pitcher.”
When Wang was on, he could throw his mid-90s sinker over and over, and
hitters were almost helpless to do anything but hit groundballs.
以前的王爸可以靠着这一千零一招闯荡江湖。打者即使知道你要投伸卡球,但面对
这重如保龄球般的伸卡也只能打出一堆滚地。
With his arm still regaining strength as he returns from a torn capsule in
his right shoulder and the massive surgery it led to, Wang has tried to
compensate by diversifying his repertoire, throwing more sliders and
changeups. McCatty would like to Wang, starting with his start Monday in
Chicago, use the same approach as he did with the Yankees, even if his sinker
is not the same deadly pitch.
受伤回来後王爸的伸卡已经不再像过去那般无往不利了。王爸试图转型,他尝试丢了
更多的滑球和变速,但前两战效果不彰。投教希望王爸能像以前一样,继续大量使用
他最主要的武器来对付打者。
“From my watching him, he’s a sinker guy,” McCatty said. “That’s what he
does. When you start trying to expand on that, that’s when you get in
trouble. When you get beat, you always want to get back with your best pitch.
I’m not trying to second-guess him, but there are certain situations, when
it comes down to that time, getting out of this inning, how do I want to get
out of it? He’s got to get back to what he was comfortable doing.”
王爸是个为伸卡而生的男人。当陷入到危机时,投伸卡就对了!
In his last start against the Braves, when Wang allowed six runs in five, his
worst moments came when he threw his slider. Dan Uggla put the game out of
reach when he crushed a home run on a slider that spun, but did not break and
remained up in the zone.
莫再提滑球。
“The last thing that will probably come for him will be getting a good feel
for the breaking ball,” McCatty said. “But, he’s not a breaking ball
pitcher. When you get in tough situations, to rely on your breaking ball when
you’re a sinkerball guy, sometimes that’s not the best way to go.”
身为为了伸卡而生的男人,关键时刻就该用伸卡正面对决,投变化球是不对的!
With the Yankees from 2006 to 2009, according to data compiled by
FanGraphs.com, Wang threw his sinker about 77 percent of the time and mixed
in his slider on about 15 percent of his pitchers. In his first two starts
with the Nationals, Wang has thrown 63.3 percent sinkers and 21.7 percent
sliders.
电脑分析,洋基时期伸卡占了77%,滑球15%。前两战伸卡占63.3%,滑球21.7%。
“Sometimes,” McCatty said, “you’re so happy that you’re back that you
try to reinvent yourself.”
And Wang may not have to. His sinker in his two Nationals starts has averaged
91.1 miles per hour, which is only two miles per hour less than he averaged
with the pitch in 2006, his best season and the best velocity he had over a
full year. Wang’s slider is not what it once was, but McCatty believes it
doesn’t have to be.
“I have seen a pitch, the sinker, that has the capability to be successful,”
McCatty said. “When you compare it to winning 19 games, throwing it 96, he’
s a different guy right now. But what I see, what he’s doing with his
sinker, it’s a very effective pitch. Time will tell how he’s going to be,
but he showed signs to me that as long as he keeps it down, he’s going to
get groundball outs.”
有些人伤癒後希望能做些改变,不过王爸并不需要。前两战王爸的伸卡均速还是
有91英哩,比全盛时期只少了2英哩。王爸的滑球(?)不如以往犀利,但投教认为
这不是很重要。以前王爸的伸卡能飙到96英哩时足够为他赢得19胜,现阶段当然
是无法跟过去相提并论了,但他现在的伸卡还是有一定的球威。这些事都还需要
透过时间来证明,不过投教个人认为王爸只要能持续投出好的伸卡球,就能取得
成功。
