http://www.bostonherald.com/sports/baseball/red_sox/view.bg?articleid=1036954 Red Sox move Schilling up to pitch Game 2 against Cleveland By Associated Press Tuesday, October 9, 2007 - Updated 3h ago BOSTON - Tim Wakefield [stats] tested his balky back from the Fenway mound today to see if he’ll be able to start in Game 4 of the AL championship series. Curt Schilling [stats] showed everything he needed to show on Sunday. 波士顿讯 --- Tim Wakefield 今天在芬威的投手丘上试试他出问题的背部， 看他是否能在 ALCS Game 4 先发。 而 Curt Schilling 已经在周日秀出所有他需要表现的了。 Two days after helping the Red Sox [team stats] finish off the Los Angeles Angels in the first round, Schilling was tabbed to start the second game of the best-of-seven series against Cleveland’s Fausto Carmona. 在帮助红袜结束第一轮与洛杉矶天使队的系列赛之後，Schilling 被放在 与克里夫兰七抢四系列战的第二场，面对 Fausto Carmona. Josh Beckett [stats] will start the opener on Friday night against C.C. Sabathia. Daisuke Matsuzaka, who pitched the second game in the first round, will start Game 3 against Jake Westbrook. Josh Beckett 将投周五晚上的开幕战，面对 C.C. Sabathia. 在第一轮投 第二场的松坂大辅则将投第三场，面对 Jake Westbrook. "We just feel like this is our best way to go forward," Red Sox manager Terry Francona said. 「我们就是觉得这样是最好的方式，」红袜教头 Terry Francona 说。 Schilling pitched seven innings of shutout ball on Sunday to lead Boston to a 9-1 victory over the Angels and complete the three-game sweep. With four days off before the start of the second round — and a couple of days off in the middle of it, too — the Red Sox have the luxury of setting up their rotation however they want. Schilling 周日投了七局完封的好球，使得波士顿对天使得到了九比一 的胜利，并完成了三场横扫。在第二轮开始之前有四天休息，第二轮中间 也有几天，使得红袜能奢侈地爱怎麽排轮值就怎麽排。 Beckett, who pitched his second consecutive playoff shutout in Game 1 against the Angels, was an easy choice to start the opener again. He’ll be going on eight days’ rest and facing a well-rested Sabathia. 加上对天使的第一场，已经在季後赛连两场比赛都不让对方得分的 Beckett 是开幕战的当然人选。他有八天的休息，而对手 Sabathia 也是休息充分的。 "C.C.’s a big kid. He throws hard," Red Sox infielder Alex Cora [stats] said. "Carmona has a Nintendo sinker. He throws hard, too." 「C.C. 是个大小孩，他爱用力投球，」红袜内野手 Alex Cora 说。 「Carmona 有一颗 Nintendo 级的 sinker。他也投得很用力。」 The rotations would be shuffled around if games are delayed or postponed by rain, which is forecast for both Friday and Saturday. Francona said he would consider using lefty Jon Lester [stats] following a long rain delay, if necessary; Lester threw 38 pitches on Tuesday to stay fresh. 天气预测周五和周六都会下雨。如果比赛延迟或延期，轮值可能随之调整。 Francona 说如果必要，他可能在下雨延迟之後用 Jon Lester. 他在周二 投了 38 球，以便保持状况。 Beckett is also a possibility for Game 4 on three days’ rest. Beckett 也可能在 Game 4 中三日先发。 "The only way that could happen, at least looking at it quickly, is if Wake isn’t OK," Francona said. "We want Wake to pitch Game 4, but we don’t need to go into Game 4 of a playoff experimenting. ... We need him to be OK and he understands that." 「暂时看来，唯一会这麽做的可能是假如 Wake 不能上场，」Francona 说。「我们希望 Wake 投 Game 4, 但是没有必要把这场当成季後赛实验。 如果让他投，就是要确定他在最好状况下投。他也了解这点。」 Wakefield was 17-12 with a 4.76 ERA this season, but he hasn’t pitched since Sept. 29 because of a problem in the back of his right shoulder. He received a cortisone shot on the eve of the Angels series and was left off the first-round roster when he didn ’t recover soon enough for the team to be comfortable with using him. Wakefield 本季 17 胜 12 败，ERA 4.76. 但由於右肩後侧的问题，他从 九月 29 日之後就没有投球过。在对天使系列战的前一晚，他接受类固醇 注射。由於并没有复原到球队可安心使用的程度，他在第一轮并没有出场。 He threw 77 pitches in a five-inning simulated game on Tuesday as the Red Sox held a full-squad workout at Fenway Park [map]. Facing mostly bottom-of-the-roster hitters — though David Ortiz [stats] did stand in for one at-bat — he worked without discomfort and left the mound smiling. 周二红袜全队在芬威训练时，他在五局的模拟比赛中投了 77 球。面对 大多是後段的打者（不过 David Ortiz 也打了一个打席），他并没有 任何的不适，微笑着离开投手丘。 He declined interview requests after the outing, but when asked how he felt he said, "Feel good enough." Pitching coach John Farrell said Wakefield had no trouble getting loose between innings, which was the main concern for a pitcher with so much time off. The knuckleballer will be reevaluated on Wednesday to make sure there are no ill effects. 比赛之後他婉拒了访问的要求，不过当记者问他感觉如何，他说：「 觉得够好了。」 投手教练 John Farrell 说 Wakefield 没有在局与局之间松掉（？）的 问题，这是长时间没投球的投手碰到的主要问题。这个蝴蝶球投手将在 周三再度接受评估，确定他已经没有伤痛。 A healthy Wakefield gives the Red Sox three starters with at least 15 wins, plus Schilling. The 40-year-old right-hander improved his career postseason record to 9-2 with a 1.93 ERA with Sunday’s victory, which was his first outing in 12 days. 如果 Wakefield 没有伤势，红袜将有三个 15 胜以上的投手可用，再 加上 Schilling. 周日的胜投之後，这个四十岁的右投把他的生涯季後 赛记录推到了九胜二败， ERA 1.93. 而这是他休息 12 天之後的先发。 "We tried to accomplish some things with Schill by giving him rest, which I think really helped," Francona said. "Daisuke’s days are going to be a little bit mixed-up anyway, so it’s almost like skipping a turn. It will give him some time." 「我们为了让他友好表现，我们让 Schilling 休息。结果似乎有效，」 Francona 说。「大辅的先发反正会是好坏参半，就像是放过一场。 让他[Schilling]多点时间休息。」 （Gosh.. 希望没翻错... @_@） Matsuzaka was Boston’s one disappointment in the first round, allowing three runs on seven hits in just 4 2-3 innings. Farrell said he had a problem commanding his fastball, and with getting too fancy around the edges of the plate after getting ahead of hitters. 松坂在短短四又 2/3 局中被打七支安打，掉三芬，是波士顿在第一轮的失 望之一。Farrell 说他的速球控球有问题，并且在球数领先时投得太边边 角角。 Speaking to Japanese reporters during the workout, Matsuzaka said he had "nothing special to say about" pitching in Game 3. He was more concerned about facing Grady Sizemore, who hit a homer against him in the regular season, and about the now-famous Jacobs Field insects. 在练习时，松坂对日本记者说他对投 Game 3 「没有什麽特别要说的。」 他比较注意的是面对在季赛对他打出一支全垒打的 Grady Sizemore。 此外就是最近很红的 Jacobs Field 黯黑兵器虫虫大军。 "If there were those bugs, it would be difficult to maintain concentration," he said. "But maybe it won’t be a problem. The best thing will be if there’s no bugs on the field, of course." 「有这些虫在，要专心投球很难吧，」他说。「说不定也没关系。不过 当然最好还是不要有啦。」 --
