※ 引述《xiemark (aisinjuro)》之銘言： : Wang speaks softly, stymies Sox’ sticks : By Rob Bradford : Friday, August 31, 2007 : NEW YORK - The soft-spoken kid from Taiwan might have provided the : Yankees’ loudest message all week. : Chien-Ming Wang, who has struggled to master most of the Red Sox : [team stats]’ hitters throughout much of his three-year big league : career, showed yesterday he might be coming down the back end of the : learning curve just in time to induce pennant race nightmares throughout : New England. 過去三年大聯盟生涯面對紅襪打者總是投得很掙扎的建仔，在昨天宣告他已經學 會如何應付紅襪的打者，而他的表現也讓新英格蘭再度充滿了東區王座爭奪戰的腥 風血雨～～ : In his fourth start of the season against the Red Sox, Wang pitched : masterfully, allowing just one Mike Lowell [stats] hit as New York won, : 5-0, in the series finale at Yankee Stadium. And that single to right : field only came after he cruised through the first six innings without : surrendering a hit. 　　在本季第四度面對紅襺的比賽中，建仔的身手像大師級的，只有讓賣肉打出一 支安打，幫助洋基以五比零在此系列戰的最後一場獲勝。賣肉的安打是在建仔六局的 無安打比賽後才出現的。 : “It was,” said Yankees manager Joe Torre, “just an important game : to get a guy to pitch like that.” 　　托瑞說：重要的比賽就是需要像這樣的投手～～ : In Wang’s first seven career starts against the Sox, including an : April outing this season, he compiled a 2-4 mark with a 5.05 ERA. 　　之前建仔對上紅襪的七次先發，他只有二勝四敗，防禦率5.05的成績。 : Up and down the Red Sox lineup, the matchups seemed one-sided. : Against Wang, David Ortiz [stats] and Eric Hinske both were hitting : .500, with the Sox designated hitter going 12-for-24 and Hinske batting : 10-for-20. Kevin Youkilis [stats] was at .389, Alex Cora [stats] was : hitting .313, and Dustin Pedroia [stats] had notched three hits in as : many at-bats against the 27-year-old sinkerballer. 　　紅襺的打線之前對建仔的成績是一面倒。老爹和辛斯基對建仔都有五成的打擊率。 優克里斯有三成九，摳拉有三成一三，而佩卓亞更是對建仔的三打數都是安打。 : “The thing that is probably most important is that he knows what he : has to do,” said Torre, whose team became the first to have starters : take no-hitters into the sixth inning on consecutive days against the : same team in the last 57 years, according to Elias Sports Bureau. “He : hasn’t really concerned himself as much with who he’s facing. That’s : what makes him successful.” 　　。托瑞：最重要的是他知道自己該怎麼做。建仔讓洋基成為過去五十七年中，首支 連續對戰而讓對手在前六局沒有敲出安打的球隊。”他總是專心面對，那是他成功的 原因” : Since that April 29 loss, Wang has won all three of his starts : against the Red Sox, allowing just five runs in 19 innings (2.37 ERA). : “(These) last two times I threw a lot more change of speed, more : sliders, more changeups,” said Wang, the third Taiwan native to make : the majors. “(Yankees catcher Jorge) Posada called good pitches.” 　　在四月廿九日輸球之後，建仔對紅襪三次先發均獲勝，在十九局中只被打下五分， 防禦率是2.37。”前兩次我用了很多速差大的球，更多的滑球，更多的變速球””齁黑 說”投得好啊～～” : As good of a game plan as the Yankees might have presented Wang, his : execution was even better. Playing off a fastball that reached as high : as 97 mph, the righty fanned two of his biggest nemeses, Ortiz and : Hinske, four times in seven at-bats. 　　相對於洋基對建仔的期待，建仔今天的表現更棒。他用九十七哩的速球，狠狠的伺 候了老爹和和辛吉斯，共三振了他們四次。 : And making the news even less palatable for the Red Sox going : forward is that it isn’t just them that Wang has seemed to figure out. : He was coming off an eight-inning gem against Detroit in which he : allowed just one earned run. 　　建仔的好表現還不只是面對紅襪而已。他在上一場對老虎的比賽投八局只失一分。 : The key, according to Yankees pitching coach Ron Guidry, is that : Wang is speeding up his approach to home plate, while throwing his : trademark sinker a bit harder for control’s sake. 　　古德瑞”建仔加快了投球的動作，這讓他的招牌伸卡球更難揮擊” : “When you start committing early to those pitches at 93-plus when : he’s throwing his changeup like he did today, it’s hard to hit (the : offspeed stuff),” explained Guidry. “That’s all he’s doing. His : pitches are a lot better and a lot crisper.” 　　”當伸卡可以飆到九十三哩以上時，他再投出像今天的變速球，那就更難打。他的投 球更出色了” : The Red Sox better hope they’re not too much better or crisper. --
