标题[外电] The Story Of My Life(93-02)

1993
One of the things that I always tried to remember, and that I developed during
my years with the Rangers, was the importance of respecting the fans. I always
respected the 45,000 or 50,000 people who paid good money to watch us play.
They paid to see a good show on the field. So I always wanted to play my very
best every day. I felt that I owed it to the fans.
1993
我在游骑兵的这几年,有一件重要的事情是我常常想记住的就是尊重球迷。
我非常尊重那些付了大把钞票来看我们比赛的四万五千人或是五万人。
他们付钱来看一场好比赛,所以每天我都试着全力以赴。我感觉这是我积欠这些球迷的。
1994
Catching Kenny Rogers’s perfect game on July 28, 1994, meant a lot to me. I’d
rather help a pitcher do something like that than hit a thousand home runs. To
me, calling a great game and helping a pitcher be at his very best is what
being a catcher is all about.
1994
在1994年7月28日蹲捕Kenny Rogers的完全比赛对我有极大的意义,我宁愿去帮助投手达
成这样的成就胜过自己打了几千支全垒打。
但是对我来说,指挥一场美好的球赛以及帮助投手能在最佳状态下是一
个捕手所该做的。
1999
That MVP season was probably the most fun I ever had playing baseball. People
remember the 35 home runs that year, and the high batting average. But a lot of
people forget about the steals. People think that because my nickname is Pudge,
that I was a slow guy. Now, I’m not saying I’m fast. But I stole 25 bases
that year. That’s pretty cool.
1999
拿到MVP的球季可能是我打棒球以来最有趣的一季了。
人们记得那年我打了35只全垒打以及高打击率,可是很多人都忘记了盗垒这件事了,大家认
为我的绰号叫做Pudge,就认为我跑得很慢。
现在我不是在说我跑得很快,但是那年我可是盗了25次垒,真的是很酷的一件事情。
2002
I have no regrets about leaving the Rangers. Of course, I had wanted to play my
whole career there. That was always my goal. But sometimes baseball is a
business. A few years earlier, the Rangers had signed Alex Rodriguez to that
$252 million contract. So with paying him that much money, they couldn’t
really afford me. That’s part of baseball. I understand it. But I played hard
every day for that team. I did my job. I worked my butt off. So … no regrets,
and no hard feelings. Plus, it definitely helped that the Marlins thing worked
out pretty good that next year.
2002
我不会後悔离开游骑兵队,我想整个生涯都待在这里,这是我的目标。
但是有时候棒球就是一门生意,在年初的时候,游骑兵队花了252M签下了Alex Rodriguez,
在付了A-Rod这麽多钱後,他们没剩下多少钱能够付我的薪水,这就是棒球的一部分,我很
了解。
我每天都在队上认真打球、我完成我的工作、每天都蹲捕。
所以···不感到後悔,也没感觉到相当难受。
此外,隔年在马林鱼队的成功,也让我离开游骑兵队这件事情变得没那麽糟。
