小熊GM擁抱Pujols - 美國職棒

Cubs GM Hendry, Pujols say hug no big deal

小熊總管Hendry和Pujols說：抱一下又不會死

CHICAGO (AP)—Cubs general manager Jim Hendry brushed off the hubbub over a
hug with Cardinals’ star Albert Pujols before Tuesday night’s series opener.

Pujols, the Cardinals’ superstar first baseman, could be a prized free agent
after the season. Hendry said the greeting had nothing to do with business
and the two simply discussed their families.

“I have a good relationship with Albert,” Hendry said. “We’d have that if
he wasn’t the best player in the world. I told you guys in spring training I
wasn’t going to be any different to him than I have been in the last eight
or nine years. Great guy, great player.”

周二晚間比賽之前，小熊總管Jim Hendry跳出來澄清，關於擁抱紅雀明星Albert Pujols
的那件事。Pujols，紅雀的神，本賽季結束後可能會是最貴的自由球員。Hendry 提到打
招呼無關生意，我們只不過閒話家常了一下而已。

Hendry表示：『我和Albert交情不錯。假設他以前在場上成績不是最優秀的，我們仍然很
合得來。之前在春訓時就告訴過你們，我對他不會改變任何看法，而且跟過去8、9年一樣
依然認為他是人品好，態度佳。』

Pujols told the St. Louis Post Dispatch the hug was much ado over nothing. It
was just a greeting between two people who respect each other.

“He’s on the other side. I’m on our side. I just think it’s kind of
ridiculous,” he said.

The Cubs’ current first baseman, Carlos Pena, is playing under a one-year,
$10 million contract.

Pujols告訴聖路易派遣報，那擁抱有啥好大驚小怪，不過是互敬雙方做一下問候而已。
他表示：『他挺他家球隊，我挺我家球隊。我認為你們想像力豐富成這樣，也太荒謬了
吧。』

小熊目前的一壘手是Carlos Pena，不過只簽一年，一千萬的合約。
