Chien-Ming Wang impressive in rehab starts,plus thoughts on Senators' best
all-time players

It was an absolute treat getting to watch two major league rehab starts by
Washington Nationals pitcher Chien-Ming Wang.

觀看國民隊投手王建民的兩場復健賽真的是一種極致的享受

The 31-year-old right-hander from Taiwan hasn't pitched in the big leagues
since July 4, 2009, when he starred for the New York Yankees.

這名從台灣來的31歲右投，自從09年7月4號為洋基先發出賽後，就沒有在大聯盟投過任何
一球。

Severe shoulder problems have sidelined him since, but that didn't stop the
Nationals from singing him to a free agent deal before the 2010 season.

嚴重的肩傷讓他短暫退出大聯盟舞台，但是這並沒有阻止國民隊在2010年球季前和他簽約
。

And, especially after two spectacular outings with the Harrisburg Senators,
the Nationals' Class AA affiliate, it appears Wang is almost ready for his
long-awaited return to the big leagues.

特別是在國民2A的參議員隊投了兩場精彩好投後，王建民看來是準備好要回到他期待
已久的大聯盟了。

“I'd say he's getting there,” Senators pitching coach Randy Tomlin said
after Wang's second scoreless AA outing Thursday night. “It's a
step-by-step, or a start-by-start, process, seeing if he can increase his
workload, how he bounces back and how well he goes after each pitch.”

"我想他已經準備好了" 參議員隊投手教練Randy Tomlin，在王建民星期四投出第二場2A
無失分的比賽後這樣說，"一步一步來，一場一場投，持續進步，觀察他是否能增加他的
投球量，他的復原狀況以及投球後他的感覺。"

His fearless approach in attacking hitters really impressed, as he didn't
walk a batter in 11 innings with the Senators. Not only that, he went to a
three-ball count just twice in his two starts.

他無畏的面對打者，讓人驚豔。而且他在11局投球中沒送出任何保送。不只這樣，他在
兩場先發表現中，也只讓三壞球出現過兩次。

It would serve any minor league pitcher well to have paid close attention to
a professional pitcher who knows walks are far more damaging that hits when
you're on the mound.

這對小聯盟投手也有助益，藉由觀察職業級的投手，他們應該可以了解保送會比被安打
要來的更具殺傷力。

“That's his competitive nature, being able to compete and make pitches,”
Tomlin said of Wang, whose fastball sat in the low 90s while mixing in a
slider and grounder-inducing sinker. “He's not just up there battling
through his latest start, but he's moving the ball around.”

"那是他一心求勝的本性，這讓他能夠完成他的投球內容。"Tomlin說。王建民的直球
大概都在low 90s左右的速度，再搭配滑球跟會誘使滾地球出現的伸卡。

"在他上一場先發，他不只是勇於挑戰打擊者，他的球也很能跑。"

Wang will likely make two more minor league rehab starts with Class AAA
Syracuse before possibly joining the Nationals' rotation.

在王建民可能回到國民隊輪值圈前，王建民應該會在3A再投兩場復健賽。
