Snyder和上原浩治的納豆之絆 - 美國職棒

Brandon Snyder reuniting with old friend Koji Uehara

Brandon Snyder goes as far back with Koji Uehara as anyone on the Red Sox
roster. He's never seen Uehara like this.

Snyder認識上原的時間比紅襪其他人久，但是他從沒看過這種樣子的上原：

"This is his coming-out party, I guess," Snyder said. "He's always been,
obviously, very team-oriented. He's up for everybody. He's in the middle of
that -- but not as crazy, I guess you could say."

「這就像他的成年派對，我猜」，Snyder表示：「他一直以球隊為中心，他為所有人挺身
而出─但是沒有那麼誇張。」

Snyder came up with the Baltimore Orioles, played last season with the Texas
Rangers and, after having been released at the end of spring training, signed
with the Red Sox just before Opening Day this year. In other words, he's been
in the same organization as Uehara for each of the last five Opening Days.

Snyder以金鶯球員身份站上大聯盟，去年效力遊騎兵；今年春訓被遊騎兵釋出後進入紅襪
隊。

以上正好是上原浩治過去五年效力過的球隊─他們過去五年開季都隸屬同一支球隊。

There weren't high-fives in Baltimore or Texas like there are in Boston --
or, at least, "not as aggressively," Snyder said. "They were there, but they
were more subdued. Now, it's kind of full-blown. ... I was in Pawtucket and I
saw him (on TV) coming through the dugout, crushing everybody. I was like,
'Oh, my goodness, what got into him?'"

Snyder：「金鶯和遊騎兵都沒有這種high-fives─至少沒這麼熱烈─他們都會出來但是比
較含蓄一些，這邊是『全面爆發』。我在Pawtucket看到他(電視上)衝出休息室，到處襲
擊隊友，我心裡想：『我的天啊，他是被什麼上身了嗎？』」

Snyder didn't get to know Uehara much in Baltimore, but the two became
friends with the Rangers last season -- bonding over their mutual affection
for Japanese food.

Snyder在巴爾的摩時和上原不熟，但是他們在去年(遊騎兵)變成好朋友─因為他們都很喜
歡日本料理。

"Anytime we go into Seattle, I always go to eat with him," Snyder said. "I
already told him, straight up, we're going (on the upcoming trip)."

「每次到西雅圖都會和他一起吃飯。我已經告訴上原我們很快就會到了。」

The dish Snyder likes best is called natto, which he described as "a
fermented soybean that smells like feet and is sticky and is an awful
rotten-colored brown. ... (Uehara) doesn't eat it. I eat it. He thinks it's
hilarious. Even Japanese people don't like it, but I love it."

Snyder最愛吃的東西是納豆─Snyder形容納豆是「聞起來像腳、黏稠、腐敗棕的發酵豆」
；上原不吃納豆，我喜歡。上原表示瞎爆了，日本人不愛吃的日本食物Snyder竟然愛吃。
