SFG @ COL - 美國職棒

大家都知道 Tim Lincecum 丟了 6.1 局的 no-no,

但在打完七局上半的時候, Bruce Bochy 做了一個小小的 move, 把 Pat Burrell 換下,

換上了 rookie Darren Ford. 的確, 是因為防守上的原因, 但內情是...

[ Burrell said he went to manager Bruce Bochy and begged to be taken out,
figuring he was a defensive liability in left field late in the game.

“I went in and talked to Bochy and said, ‘Listen, I’d hate to be the guy
that doesn’t get to a ball that somebody else might catch,” said Burrell,
who was replaced by Darren Ford(notes) in the middle of the seventh." ]

>> Burrell 七局中半時和 Bochy 拜託讓他下去. Burrell: 老大, 我不想發生那個人家

可以接殺但我不能接殺的出局....


儘管 Lincecum 賽後表示, 我根本沒在想 no-no 的事情, 但顯然有人很緊張就是.

面對廣大的 Coors Field 外野, Burrell 這叫做....自知之明?
