王建民再臨

: http://blog.nj.com/yankees/2011/07/the_return_of_chien-ming_wang.html
: Chien-Ming Wang was 7-2 (soon to be 8-2) after two consecutive 19-game
: winning seasons, and the Yankees were 12-3 in games Wang started. The
: horror began on June 15, 2008 in the 6th inning of a ballgame in
: Houston's Minute Maid Park.

經過06，07年19勝的球季，08年的王建民有著7勝2負(馬上就要變成8勝2負)的成績。
此外在王先發的場次，洋基擁有12勝3負的成績。2008年6月15日，於休士頓美利果球場
的球賽，六局上半，一切可怕的事，就從這裡開始...

: The Yankees were up 3-0 behind starter
: Wang, a national hero in his native Taiwan. Wang came up to bat with 1
: out and runners on 1st and 2nd. He bunted, but it led to a forceout at
: third base. Now on first base, Wang ran hard to second base and made
: it when Johnny Damon's grounder to SS was misplayed. Wang ran hard
: again and scored when the next batter, Derek Jeter hit a liner through
: the right side of the infield. But there was a problem- something
: snapped in Wang's foot. It turned out to be a small bone we never
: heard of before, something called a lisfranc. Here is the video.

洋基隊在王建民的帶領下，3比0領先。

王建民，這位台灣人心中的國民英雄，拎著棒子在一二壘有人的情況上場打擊。
他觸擊，但並沒有成功犧牲自己來照亮隊友，隊友三壘前被封殺而自己上了一壘。
強尼戴蒙擊出一個游擊方向滾地球，因游擊手的失誤，自己賣力的跑上二壘。
當基特擊出一個一壘邊的平飛球，他又再一次的奔跑...但這次，王建民的腳出了
問題，是沒啥人聽過的lisfranc的小骨頭。(影片請看網頁)

: Wang's whole world turned upside-down from that point until now. His
: 2008 season was over. His attempted return to the Yankees' rotation in
: the spring of 2009 was a disaster. It was said in many places
: (including right here) that the Yankees mishandled Wang's rehab by not
: allowing him to keep his legs in shape as the lisfranc healed. By the
: end of 2009, Wang was released. He was signed by the Washington
: Nationals for 1 year and spent all of 2010 in rehab. He was re-signed
: by the Nats for the 2011 season. Finally last month he was ready to
: pitch in real ballgames. From then until now he has started 5 games in
: A, AA and AAA levels. Here are his 2011 stats. Overall, Wang, now 31,
: has pitched reasonably well. He is expected to make one more AAA start
: next Monday and might make his return to the MLB after that.
: BTW... his start Monday will be in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, against the
: Yankees AAA affiliate. It should be interesting.

對王建民來說，他的世界從那個時後開始，猶如自天堂墮入地獄。他的球季結束了。
09年春天重回洋基輪職的故事，跟本就是一個悲劇。很多人批評洋基沒有對王建民的
復建過程提供最好的安排，以致他的腳力不足。09結束後，王被洋基釋出，與國民
分別於10，11年簽兩個一年約。

過了將近兩年漫長的復健時光，上個月我們終於再次看到他在真正的球賽裡亮相。
到目前為止他在A, AA, AAA共出賽了五場，成績還不錯(要看成績結算請入網頁)。
大致說來，31歲的王選手投得算是理想。預定下週一，AAA的先發之後，他會回到
大聯盟。(耶~)

下一場對手是洋基AAA的球隊，應該會很趣。

王建民加油，不要讓我每次看到Minute Maid Park都傷心一次。
