The last time baseball was played at Jacobs Field, a swarm of Lake Erie midges descended on the stadium and pestered pitchers. 克里夫兰讯 -- 上次 Jacobs Field 有棒球赛的时候，一整群伊利湖 飞虫降临球场干扰投手，成为所谓主场优势的超现实体验。 During that Oct. 5 American League Division Series contest, the Yankees were noticeably bugged by the incessant insects. New York reeled to defeat in the game and, ultimately, the series. On Monday, Boston's Daisuke Matsuzaka may keep an eye on the sky to see if the airborne annoyances have designs on an encore. 在十月五日的那场 ALDS 比赛中，洋基很明显地被飞虫干扰。纽约输了 那场比赛，最後也输了整个系列。在周一，波士顿的松坂可能得要注意 一下天空，看看空降大队是否要再表演一场。 "If there were those bugs, it would be difficult to maintain concentration," Matsuzaka said earlier this week. "But maybe it won't be a problem. The best thing will be if there's no bugs on the field, of course." 「如果有虫的话，是很难专心啦，」松坂稍早曾这麽说。「不过也许 到时候不会有问题。当然最好还是不要有虫。」 Then again, Dice-K will have far more than bugs to worry about come Game 3 of the AL Championship Series against the Indians. First and foremost, the Japanese right-hander will be concerning himself with attempting to push Boston ahead of Cleveland in the best-of-seven series, which is tied at one win apiece through two games. 不过，来到 ALCS 对印第安人队的第三场，Dice-K 要担心的事情可不只 这些虫。第一次，这个日本右投将在七战四胜的季後赛中肩负把目前一 比一与克里夫兰平手的波士顿推向领先的任务。 "There is a slight difference when you go into a visiting ballpark, having won the last game or lost the last game," Matsuzaka said during a press conference on Saturday at Jacobs Field. "So I feel that, in that sense, maybe I have a bigger responsibility tomorrow, but I hope to use that as a source of strength." 「当你走进客座球场，前一场是赢球还是输球确实是有一点差别的，」 松坂周六在 Jacobs Field 的记者会上说。「这样说来，我觉得我明天 的责任更大了一点。但我希望这会成为我力量的来源。」 If Matsuzaka is going to lead Boston in that charge, he's going to need to regain the control that helped him shine at times as a rookie starter during the regular season. In his last outing, Matsuzaka's command wavered in an abbreviated start in Game 2 of the ALDS against the Angels on Oct. 5 如果松坂要带领波士顿冲锋成功，他会需要找回他这个新人年之中使他 闪耀了几次的控球。上一次十月五日对天使的 ALDS 第二场先发，松坂 的控球又跑掉了。 Boston catcher Jason Varitek said Matsuzaka needs to improve on his overall command in Monday's start. 波士顿捕手 Jason Varitek 说松坂在周一的比赛中必须要加强整体的控 制力。 "We just ran into a lot of three-ball counts, 3-2 counts, and he either walked them or something. We eliminate some of those, and stay out of some of those walks, he's probably got a pretty good outing." 「我们投出太多的三坏或满球数，而他大多把对手保送掉之类的。[如果] 我们能避免这些，少几个保送，也许他就会有一场不错的先发。」 Against the Angels, Matsuzaka was chased from his outing at Fenway Park after just 4 2/3 innings. The 27-year-old hurler toiled through 96 pitches over that span, issuing a trio of walks and registering three strikeouts. Los Angeles touched Matsuzaka for three runs, but Boston prevailed in the end, courtesy of a three-run walk-off home run by Manny Ramirez. 面对天使，松坂在芬威球场只投了 4 2/3 局就被逼下场了。这个 27 岁的 投手投了 96 球，给了三个保送，和三个三振。洛杉矶从他手中拿下三芬， 不过最後波士顿还是胜出，多亏了 Manny Ramirez 的三分再见全垒打。 Matsuzaka didn't figure into the decision on that night, but he's only managed to post a 5-6 mark over his past 15 trips to the mound, dating back to the regular season. Included in that stretch, though, is a victory over the Indians at Jacobs Field on July 24, when Matsuzaka logged seven shutout innings to outduel C.C. Sabathia in a 1-0 Boston win. 松坂那天晚上无关胜败。不过，包括季赛，他最近 15 次上投手丘只交出 了五胜六败的成绩单。虽然这其中包括了七月 24 日在 Jacobs Field 对印第安人队的胜投，那场比赛他留下了七局无失分的记录，击败了 C.C. Sabathia, 最後波士顿 1-0 赢球。 The Indians did manage to get the best of Matsuzaka on May 30, when he yielded six runs on 12 hits with four strikeouts en route to a loss to Cleveland at home. So the Tribe has first-hand experience of the ups and downs that Matsuzaka went through this year, when he finished 15-12 with a 4.40 ERA over 32 starts. 印地安人队在五月卅日也曾给过他苦头。那天松坂在被打 12 支安打，丢六分， 有四次三振。所以，在松坂以 32 场先发，15 胜 12 败，ERA 4.40 总结的 第一年，印地安人对他好和不好的时候都有第一手经验。 "We've seen him a few times," Cleveland manager Eric Wedge said on Saturday. "He gives you different looks, a lot of different variety of pitches. ... I think he's a good example of where you really have to grind out at-bats against him. 「我们有对上他几次，」克里夫兰教头 Eric Wedge 周六说。「他能投很多 不同球种... 我想他是那种会让每个打席都很辛苦的投手。」 "You've really got to be disciplined and have discipline to stick with your game plan, not just the first time around, but particularly the second and third time around in the order." 「你得要很有训练地照着攻略计画走，不只是第一次，而且尤其是第二次 和第三次面对他。」 （？）为什麽哩？ Matsuzaka's performances against Cleveland strayed from a pair of trends he established in his first big league campaign. 松坂对克里夫兰的表现与他在大联盟第一季的两个趋势都相反。 Matsuzaka went 7-8 with a 4.02 ERA over 18 road appearances, but he made quick work of the Indians at Jacobs Field. Matsuzaka also turned in a 9-6 mark with a 3.14 ERA in 16 starts when facing an opponent for the first time. He performed much better in his second turn against Cleveland, though. 在 18 次客场先发中，松坂七胜八败，ERA 4.02. 但在 Jacobs Field 他 轻松料理了印第安人队。松坂也在 16 次第一次面对对手时交出九胜六败， ERA 3.14 的成绩。但他面对克里夫兰反倒是第二次投得比较好。 In the end, what it boils down to for Matsuzaka is how well he is controlling his wide arsenal of pitches. 最後，对松坂来说，一切还是看他是否能把那许多的球种控得好。 "In a nutshell, I think it starts with command of his fastball," Red Sox manager Terry Francona said earlier this week. "If you can command your fastball, you can certainly set up a lot of other pitches. Sometimes you work ahead 0-1 with a good fastball and a mediocre breaking ball all of a sudden looks a lot better." 「总结来说，我认为一切还是从他速球的控球开始，」红袜教头 Terry Francona 本周稍早曾说。「如果你能控好诉求，你就能为许多其他的球种 布局。有时候你只要能用一颗好速球拿到一好球没坏球的领先，然後有个中 等的变化球，突然间一切就好投多了。」 Helping matters for Boston is the fact that Matsuzaka enjoyed pitching at Jacobs Field. 对波士顿来说另一个好消息是松坂还蛮喜欢在 Jacobs Field 投球。 "I feel the mound there was good to pitch off of, compared to others," Matsuzaka said. "It was a comfortable mound. It will be good to pitch there." Unless those pesky bugs return. 「和其他球场比起来，我觉得那边的投手丘比较好投，」松坂说。「那个 投手丘很舒服。能在那里投很好。」 除非虫虫部队上演大进击。 "I did bring along some bug spray," Matsuzaka to an eruption of laughter. 「我是有带防蚊液啦，」松坂说，然後大家都笑了。 --
