YANKS TAKE IT ON CHIEN - 棒球

※ 引述《yyhong68 (come every now and then)》之銘言：
: 感覺第一段批得有點狠
: 但是Gator說得好....
: YANKS TAKE IT ON CHIEN
: SHORT OUTING TURNS INTO A WANG NIGHT

小王一次短局數的先發承擔了苦果

: By GEORGE KING
: August 9, 2007 -- TORONTO -

: When Chien-Ming Wang resembles a blend of Kei Igawa and Matt DeSalvo,
: the Yankees' chances at victory are Kate Moss slim. And when Roy Halladay
: faces a lineup without Alex Rodriguez and is staked to six-run bulge through
: three frames, those chances expire early.

當小王丟的和阿宅以及DeSalvo一樣(糟糕)時，洋基的勝利機會就和名模Kate Moss的體重
一樣低了。[按：Kate Moss http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kate_Moss，曾經與過度減重
以及用藥醜聞扯上關係。] 同時，當Halladay面對一個沒有A-Rod的打線，並且還不到三局
就有了六分的領先優勢時，這個機會就差不多流逝了。

: That's what happened last night at Rogers Centre, where the Blue Jays
: pummeled Wang and the Yankees, 15-4, in front of 40,811, snapping a
: five-game Yankees winning streak.

這是昨晚在藍鳥主場Rogers Centre發生的事。藍鳥隊在40,811名觀眾前，以15-4的比數
擊潰了小王和洋基隊，中止了洋基的五連勝。

: "Everything he threw was right over the plate," pitching coach Ron Guidry
: said of Wang. "You chalk it up to one of those days. All good pitchers go
: through them. I don't know if there was anything he could have done
: differently."

"他投的每顆球都通過了本壘板。"投教Guidry說。"你只能把今天記錄在'那種日子'之一。
所有好投手都得經過這種事情。我並不知道他能怎樣地避過這一切。"

: In the shortest outing of his career, Wang lasted 2 2/3 innings and
: surrendered a career-high eight runs. Considering he was 10-1 in his
: previous 11 decisions and was riding a three-game winning streak,
: Wang was overdue for a stinker.

在這場小王生涯最短的先發裏，他投了2 2/3局丟掉生涯新高的八分。考量到他先前11場有
關勝負的比賽裡是十勝一敗，並且才剛投出三連勝，他實在還不到糟糕的水準。

: And considering how well the Yankees have played lately - they are 21-8
: since the All Star break counting a suspended-game victory - it wasn't
: tough to swallow, even if it did sour the positive buzz all over the
: clubhouse before a huge three-game series against the Indians starting
: tomorrow night.

並且考量到洋基近來有多麼火熱--自從星星賽後，加上那場對金鶯的延賽他們是21勝8敗。
這場敗仗並沒有那麼難以下嚥，儘管它在洋基面對下一個對笑臉人的系列賽前，吸走了一
點正面的氣息。

: "You don't like to lose, but with Halladay on the mound you know you have
: to control it, and we couldn't do that," Joe Torre said.

"你並不想要輸球，但是當好樂迪在投手丘上時，你知道你得控制情勢，但我們並沒做到。
"Torre說。

: The Yankees started the night a half-game out of the wild-card lead, trailing
: the Tigers. When the game was over the Yankees were the same distance back,
: but the Mariners were on top, one percentage point ahead of the Tigers.

洋基在開賽前距離外卡榜首老虎隊還有半場的勝差，而在賽後還是維持了相同的距離--
只是首位變成了水手隊，他們以一個百分點的勝率領先老虎隊。

[按：目前戰績長這樣 http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/standings/wildcard.jsp ]

: Staked to a 6-2 lead after three frames, Halladay cruised to his 13th win
: in 18 decisions. In seven innings he allowed six hits and four runs. The
: only runs he surrendered came on homers by Robinson Cano and Hideki Matsui.
: Cano slugged a two-run shot in the third and a solo blast in the seventh,
: two batters after Matsui opened the inning with a drive to center.

在三局結束有8-2的領先後[按：原文誤植為6-2]，好樂迪迎向他本季的第13勝(5敗)。
他七局的投球裡被打了六支安打送掉四分。他所有的失分都來自於Cano跟松井的全壘打。
台灣之友小Q三局時打了一支兩分彈，並且在松井七局率先開砲後跟進。

: Rodriguez wasn't in the starting lineup due to a calf problem, the result
: of getting hit Tuesday night by Josh Towers, an incident that triggered two
: bench-clearing situations and led to Roger Clemens' ejection later for
: retaliating when he drilled Alex Rios.

A-Rod因為被Towers觸身球打中的小腿有點問題，所以沒有先發。昨天的事件造成兩隊兩度
衝出休息室，並且最後老克在對Rios報復後被趕出場。

[我永遠會記得我以前曾經把Damon的calf翻成"小牛"...XD]

: Bobby Abreu was tossed in the fourth by plate umpire Derryl Cousins after
: a borderline third-strike call.

阿布則在第四局因為跟主審爭辯一顆三振球而被趕出場。

: "He didn't like the way I slammed my bat and he threw me out," Abreu said.
: "I just said something."

"他只是不喜歡我砸棒子的動作，所以就把我趕出去了。"阿布說。"我只念了些話而已。"

: The Blue Jays assaulted Wang, Jeff Karstens and Ron Villone for 16 hits,
: nine of them doubles. Vernon Wells went 3-for-4 and drove in four runs.
: Frank Thomas was 3-for-5 with three RBIs.

藍鳥隊以十六支安打(當中九支2B)重擊小王、Karstens和V龍。Wells四支三並且打進四分
打點，重傷害Thomas則是五支三帶三分打點。

: "My bullpen felt OK, but everything was down the middle," a ticked Wang
: said. "The ball was too high in the middle."

"我在牛棚投時還好，但是到了比賽中途一切都走樣了。"小王說。"球跑的太高了。"

一樣請大家指教嘍...

今天真是個糟糕的結果 今年才開始看藍鳥的我就親眼看見兩個台灣選手被他們打爆...

Q___Q...



不過 小王一定會振作起來的 小小郭也是 是吧? :)

希望以後我們回頭看今天時，都能驕傲的說我們看到了一場"讓他們更成熟的比賽"。

祝福他們嘍~~
