Bonds: Ichiro could've chased Rose 棒子說: 一朗本來可以挑戰Rose的記錄 Seattle star might have topped all-time hits records Seattle的明星(指一朗)本來可能會擁有生涯安打數記錄 By: Barry Bonds Ichiro Suzuki set the single-season hits record Friday night. (Otto Greule Jr/Getty Images) As San Francisco Giants slugger Barry Bonds chases Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron for Major League Baseball's all-time homers lead, Bonds' thoughts about the pursuit will be recorded on a regular basis for MLB.com and barrybonds.com. What Ichiro did with that hits record is incredible. If he hadn't spent all those years playing in Japan, if he had left earlier, he would've given Pete Rose a run for his money. I truly believe that. (第一句沒什麼意思,開個頭而已)一朗的安打記錄真是不可思議。如果他沒在日本打那 些年，如果他可以早點離開，他應該可以超越Pete Rose。我真的相信。 Pete had how many? Those 4,256 hits in his 24-year career. Ichiro has 912 in four years. He won't even come close and that's too bad. The Japanese should let their better players come over to the Major Leagues earlier. But you don't get true free agency until you've played 10 years over there. That's the rules and that's the way it is. So Pete's record is safe. 在Pete Rose 24年的生涯中，他打了4,256支安打，一朗在四年內打了912支，(看來)他 連要接近(4,256)都很難，真是太糟了。日本人應該要讓他們的好球員早點到大聯盟打 球的。但是，在那(日本)，球員十年才可以得到自由球員的身分，規定就是如果，也因 為這樣，Pete的記錄打會安全(不被破)。 But Ichiro's single-season hits record stands right up there with all the rest of them. He broke a record that's been standing, for what, 84 years? How amazing is that? Before the season is over, he'll have more than 260 hits. 不過，一朗的單季安打已經是一個記錄了(超越其它單季安打)，他打破了一個已經存 在...84年的記錄了!這真的很驚人...,球季還沒結束，他就打了260支以上的安打了! It's right up there with my 73 homers (in 2001) and any other single-season record. None are any tougher than the other. None is any better. A record is a record. Especially one that lasted that many years. When I set my record, Mark McGwire had just hit 70 homers in 1998. Babe Ruth hit 60 in 1927. Roger Maris hit 61 in 1961. Then Mark 37 years later. Those were all major accomplishments. Just like my 73. 它(這個記錄)與我的單季73發全壘打以及其它所有單季記錄一起留名，沒有哪一項比其 它難，沒有哪一項比其它強，特別是一個已經存在那麼久的記錄。(按:他的意思應該是 要說單季安打記錄一點也不遜色於他的全壘打記錄。)在我創記錄之前，McGwire才剛在 98年打了70發、Babe Ruth在27年打了60發，Maris在61年打了61發然後37年後被破，這 些都是很重要的成就，如同我的73發。 But George Sisler's 257 hits happened in 1920. And no one had done it since, not until Ichiro passed him on Friday night. 但是，Sisler的257安是在1920打的，而且從那時候開始，就沒有人可以達到，直到昨 晚一朗超越了他。 You separate the single-season records from the career accomplishments because career records represent consistency over such a long period of time. But for Ichiro, to come into the league and do what he has done, it's a shame that he won't be able to get there. 人們把生涯記錄和單季記錄分開是為了看選手在長時間的穩定性，但是，看到一朗來到大 聯盟所做的事(有暗示他做的事很了不起的意思)，他沒有辦法去破那個記錄(生涯安打)實 在是很可惜。 I've played baseball in Japan with the Major League All-Stars four or five times. Two years ago Ichiro was on the team, so I got to watch his discipline and work ethic up close. Over the years, you can just see the improvement in Japanese baseball. Ten years ago there weren't the quality position players there are now. Now, guys like Ichiro and (Hideki) Matsui are more than good enough to play over here. They come here and they leave their mark. 我為了大聯盟的全明星賽到日本打過四五次球，兩年前一朗也在陣中，所以我有機會近 距看到他練習和打球，而近幾年我們也看到日本棒球的進步，十年前我們還看不到好的 野手，不過，現在有了，現在像一朗和松井(秀喜)那樣有大聯盟水準的球員都有，他們 來大聯盟並且留下記錄(暗指他們不是跑龍套的，是水準以上的球員)。 The hits record tells the whole story. Ichiro is proving he's one of the best players in the world. 這個安打記錄說明了一切，一朗証明了他是全世界最好的選手之一。 Note: Ichiro, now 31 years old, spent the first eight years of his career playing for the Orix BlueWave in Japan's Pacific League. He had 1,278 hits. 按:目前31歲的一朗前八年在日本太平洋聯盟的歐力士打職棒，他打了1,278支安打。 -- 翻完了，呼，請多指教。 --
