聯盟在官方季後賽廣告抨擊了棒球"潛規則"

MLB released an advertisement ahead of Tuesday's postseason opener denouncing
the anti-bat flip attitudes of many baseball traditionalists.
MLB在星期二季後賽開始之前釋出了官方廣告，對很多棒球老學校有反甩棒的態度嗤之以
鼻。

"Don't stop and stare. Don't flip your bat. Respect the jersey," says a
narrator at the start. Meanwhile, the commercial shows Giancarlo Stanton
admiring a lengthy home run, Carlos Correa tossing his bat, Mookie Betts
flexing and Yasiel Puig wagging his tongue after a daring headfirst slide.
「不要站在那邊看球飛，不要甩棒，尊重你身上的球衣，」廣告裡的旁白一開始說到。而
廣告裡播放的畫面是Giancarlo Stanton欣賞著那支超遠全壘打，Carlos Correa甩棒，
Mookie Betts的打氣動作，以及Yasiel Puig在一次頭部滑壘後搖舌頭的畫面。

It also includes Atlanta rookie Ronald Acuna Jr. celebrating a home run
against the Marlins. Acuna was plunked by Miami's Jose Urena during his
impressive five-game homer streak this season, an incident that put
baseball's unwritten rules back under the microscope.
裡面也有勇士菜鳥Ronald Acuna Jr.慶祝他在對馬林魚時打全壘打慶祝的畫面。Acuna在他
令人驚艷的連五場全壘打的時候被馬林魚投手Jose Urena投了觸身球，之後棒球潛規則就
被大家放大檢視了。

After Acuna, the ad cuts to Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr. Griffey sports a
backward baseball cap, just like he did as the fresh face of baseball in the
early 1990s.
在Acuna的畫面後，廣告內容是名人堂球員Ken Griffey Jr.上場。Griffey反戴他的棒球
帽，就像他在90年代早期剛開始打球一樣。

"No more talk," Griffey says. "Let the kids play."
「不要打口水戰了，」Griffey說。「讓這群棒球員打球吧！」

The commercial features soundbites from a few broadcasters criticizing
players, including one from longtime Turner Sports analyst Joe Simpson. The
Braves announcer came under fire a few times this season, including when he
labeled Dodgers veteran Chase Utley "unprofessional" for wearing a "K Cancer"
T-shirt during batting practice. Simpson was left off TBS's postseason lineup
for this fall, a decision that was made last offseason.
這廣告也剪進去一些播報員抨擊球員的話，包括了Turner Sports資深評論員Joe Simpson
的評論。這位勇士播報員在這一季有過好幾次被輿論批評的紀錄，像是他說躲人老將Chase
Utley在打擊練習時穿著"三振癌症"(K Cancer)的T恤是"不專業"的。Simpson在本季不會出
現在TBS的季後賽播報名單內，這決定是去年就下達的。

Proponents of baseball's unspoken code of conduct have gone hard after
certain players for their postseason antics. Puig is a regular target because
of his energetic shenanigans, and slugger Jose Bautista was rebuked for
staring down his go-ahead homer in Game 5 of the 2015 AL Division Series.
一些對於棒球界裡潛規則的支持者在一些球員在季後賽的古怪舉動後開始加重批評力道。
Puig是他們常針對的目標，因為他有很多很激動的奇怪動作，另外一位是大棒Jose
Bautista也因為在2015美聯分區賽第五戰看著那領先全壘打飛出場而被訓斥。

The game's conservative crowd has gotten increasing pushback from younger
players and fans, especially as MLB struggles to target younger viewers.
Bryce Harper campaigned in 2016 to "Make Baseball Fun Again," while some
perceive the old-timers to be unfairly forcing Latin players to conform to
American cultural standards.
棒球界的老學校們也開始受到年輕球員跟粉絲的攻擊，尤其是聯盟現在正努力想要吸引年
輕族群。當一些人認為老古董們不公平的要求一些拉美球員要融入美式傳統棒球價值的時
候，Bryce Harper在2016年的口號是"讓棒球再次有趣"。
