意外發現Carl Crawford十年前來過台灣

打2001世界盃，當時美國隊總教練就是粉柯南

這篇網頁有報導，有他跟粉柯南的合影


Francona and Crawford together again

By Peter Abraham, Globe Staff

Today is not the first time Terry Francona has managed Carl Crawford.

In 2001, Francona managed Team USA in the World Cup tournament in Taiwan.
They went 7-3, losing 5-3 to Cuba in the final.

Crawford, then a 20-year-old Rays prospect, hit only .219 but started eight
of the games.

Francona remembered Crawford as being a nice kid who had talent, but was raw.
The tournament was only two months after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and
many teams were unwilling to send their players.

Francona was a coach with the Indians at the time. One of his assistants was
Brad Mills, his good friend and future bench coach with the Sox.

Thanks to Jake Fehling, USA Baseball's director or media and public
relations, for tracking down the photo. Boston.com sports editor Matt Pepin
helped out with his Photoshop skills.

當年世界盃Crawford打得不怎樣，不過當時他才20歲

粉柯南說他挺有才華的就是，希望他明年能打出符合他身價的成績
