OF injuries, Matsuzaka mistakes spell doom

NEW YORK - It’s hard to say the sky is falling with the Red Sox
[team stats] still holding a seven-game lead in the AL East this
morning.
But after falling, 5-3, to the Yankees and losing Manny
Ramirez [stats] and Bobby Kielty to back injuries last night,
there were enough M. Night Shyamalan-type signs hovering over the
Bronx to give Red Sox followers a minor case of the
heebie-jeebies.
纽约讯 -- 红袜还有七场领先,[输了一场比赛]称不上是什麽天塌
了的大事。
但以 5-3 输给洋基,Manny Ramirez 和 Bobby Kielty 又在同一个
晚上背部受伤,红袜球迷们难免感到一股奈特沙马兰(注)式的恶兆,
而开始焦虑起来。
(注)M. Night Shyamalan, 导演
With a partial lunar eclipse in the morning, a full moon rising
in the evening and a petrified but living squirrel perched atop
the right field foul pole at Yankee Stadium, the Red Sox resumed
their eternal squabble with the Yankees in a somewhat spacy
atmosphere, with the visitors getting lost in it.
这天,早上出现了月偏食,傍晚升起了满月,一只受惊的松鼠攀在
右外野全垒打柱上。就在这股些许离奇的气氛之下,红袜继续着与
宿敌洋基的永久缠斗。这次,客队输了球。
The Red Sox’ favorite ex-idiot, Johnny Damon, supplied the
game-winning hit with a two-run home run in the seventh inning off
Daisuke Matsuzaka, who also gave up a go-ahead home run to Derek
Jeter in the fifth in losing his third consecutive decision.
红袜最爱拿来说嘴的叛将 Johnny Damon 在第七局从松坂大辅手中
打出了致胜的两分全垒打。松坂在第五局也被 Derek Jeter 打出了
超前的全垒打,第三度失去了胜投机会。
“In a game like this, a couple of mistakes can go a long way,”
said Sox manager Terry Francona, not making a sly reference to
Damon’s home run, which barely cleared the right field wall next
to the squirrely pole, just 314 feet from home plate. “He tried
to go front-door cutter to Jeter and got it out too much over the
plate and he tried to come in on Johnny, and even though the ball
didn’t catch the great part of the bat because it wasn’t in
enough, he was able to keep it fair in the perfect part of the
ballpark.”
「在这样的比赛中,几个错误会变得很难以弥补,」红袜教头 Terry
Francona 不仅暗指 Demon 打到有松鼠的竿子附近,刚好越过墙头、
314 尺远的全垒打。「他想投一个从内侧进垒的 cutter, 但跑得太
中间;他对 Johnny 也想投近一点,结果虽然没有被球棒的大部分
击中,因为球不够进来,他还是把球打到球场最刚好的地方。」
Francona said Ramirez will be re-evaluated today and the team has
no interest in seeing him visit the disabled list. But just
mentioning that raised the spectre of the Red Sox’ sustaining a
serious blow to their lineup.
Francona 说 Ramirez 今天会重新检查一下。球队当然不希望他上
DL, 但光是这样假想就让人觉得红袜打线大受打击。
That lineup was able to do enough damage to Yankees starter Andy
Pettitte that Matsuzaka should have been able to hold on to at
least a tie, especially after his mates had dug him out of a 2-0
hole.
这次的红袜打线已经给了洋基先发投手 Andy Pettitte 足够的
伤害,松坂至少应该可以把分数维持在平手才对。尤其,他的
队友还在他 2-0 落後的时候拉了他一把。
Needing 26 pitches before he could record his third out of the
first inning, Matsuzaka’s opening effort paled next to Pettitte,
who needed just seven pitches in the first.
The Red Sox struck back when Ramirez led off the second
inning by poking a home run over the right field wall. An inning
later, they tied it on David Ortiz [stats]’ sacrifice fly.
Both starters settled in after that, aside from Jeter’s home run
and Jason Varitek [stats]’s game-tying solo shot to lead off the
seventh.
松坂在第一局花了 26 个球才抓到第三个出局数的表现和第一局
只花了七个球的 Pettite 相比之下略逊一筹。红袜的反击由 Ramirez
在第二局的右外野全垒打开始。一局之後,红袜靠着 David Ortiz
的牺牲飞球追平比数。
两名先发投手後来都稳了下来,仅有 Jeter 打出的一只全垒打,
和 Jason Varitek 在第七局的追平全垒打。
Matsuzaka’s sharpness evaporated in the bottom of that inning. He
allowed a single, followed by a sacrifice bunt and Damon’s
homer. One walk later, Matsuzaka was done for the evening. He
threw 110 pitches but the 84 he needed for his final 5 1/3 innings
could not make up for his early inefficiency and his late
failures.
松坂的锐利度在那一局下半却凭空消失了。他让对方打出一只
安打,紧接着的是一个牺牲触击和 Damon 的全垒打。他投了
110 球,但他在最後 5 1/3 局中的 84 球并无法弥补他刚开
始耗掉的球数,和他最後的失败表现。
“Both (home run) pitches could have been prevented so I
definitely regret both,” said Matsuzaka, whose record dropped to
13-11 with his first loss in three starts against the Yankees. “I
think all the responsibility for my recent losses belong to me.”
「那两个[造成全垒打]的投球都是可以避免的,我自然是很
懊恼,」松坂说。在对洋基系列战首战落败後,他的战绩掉
到 13 胜 11 败。「对於我最近的败投,我认为责任都在我
身上。」
Matsuzaka’s ERA against the Yankees stands at a bloated 6.98, a
testament to the home team’s offensive prowess and the threat it
presents to any team employing mediocre pitching, no matter how
briefly. Last night, Matsuzaka was shaky in the first, then made
two brief but major mistakes.
The Yankees pounced and shaved a game off the Red Sox [team stats]
’ lead.
松坂对洋基的 ERA 高达 6.98, 这证实了洋基的强大火力,只
要对手的投球稍稍失去水准,即使只有一下下,洋基也能造成
威胁。昨晚,松坂就是在第一局不稳,然後犯了两个一瞬间但
後果严重的错误。
这就足以让洋基趁机重击,削下了一场与红袜的胜场差。
With all the mischief going on in the heavens last night, the loss
felt like something bigger than it probably was.
The key word there is “probably.”
在昨晚诡异的天象之下,这场败战给人的感觉可能被夸大了。
不过,上一段的关键字是「可能」。
