小王與喬巴支配了今天的光芒
王、喬巴與MO只讓光芒隊擊出4支零星的安打

: NEW YORK -- Joba Chamberlain, fresh into Sunday's game against the Rays,
: decided to try something a bit unorthodox. With the crowd, Yankees and game
: all building to a frenzy, Chamberlain stepped to the mound, came to the set
: and greeted Tampa Bay third baseman Willy Aybar with a curveball that seemed
: to crawl across home plate.
: Strike one. The crowd ooh-ed.

張伯倫在星期天對上光芒的比賽中，決定試著用些不同於以往的策略。當喬巴站上投手
丘，用那緩慢卻精準地爬進本壘板的曲球，去問候坦帕灣當家三壘手Willy Aybar的同時
，讓滿場的洋基球迷為之瘋狂。

Strike one. 球迷們開始大聲鼓譟。

: Then, as if remembering what made him such a sensation in the first place,
: Chamberlain reloaded, delivering a fastball that stadium radar guns clocked
: at 101 mph.
: Strike two. The crowd ahh-ed.

就當打者還殘存著上一個變化球感覺的時候，喬巴送了顆101英里的快速球把打者叫醒。

Strike two. 球迷們已經安靜不下來了。

: Yankee Stadium's energy seemed to triple, and all this before Chamberlain
: even recorded an out. By the time he did strike out Aybar -- one pitch later,
: on a sharp slider -- the fans in attendance had seemingly forgotten about the
: two men on base or about nearly anything other than their favorite reliever.
: The Yankees no longer seemed capable of losing, with Chamberlain flushing all
: the drama out of a 2-0 win over the Rays.

洋基球場凝聚的能量似乎暴漲了三倍之多，而且甚至是在喬巴製造出任何出局數之前。
果然，喬巴三振了Aybar -- 就在下一顆犀利的滑球 -- 場內的球迷們似乎忘記了還有
兩個跑者還在壘包上或是其他任何事，除了他們最喜愛的投手以外。就當喬巴在他的劇
本寫上 2-0 贏球的那一刻，洋基似乎就沒有任何輸球的可能了。

: "I'm still young and dumb sometimes, and sometimes that works for me,"
: Chamberlain said. "I don't try to do too much. I just try to attack the zone
: and be aggressive. I think I'm a little bit more experienced, but not
: necessarily smarter than last year."

"我還年輕並且有時笨笨的，但是有時候這對我有幫助"，喬巴這樣說，"我沒有想要去做
太多其他的事情，我只是想要積極並主動的攻擊。我想我的投球並沒有比去年聰明多少，
只是比起那時我，現在又多了更多的經驗。"

: Though starter Chien-Ming Wang seemed to be the most important Yankee for
: much of Sunday's game, a high pitch count and some unexpected trouble forced
: him out of the game with no outs and two men on in the seventh. That's when
: Chamberlain came on, fanning Aybar on three pitches and throwing a bit of a
: scare into the rest of the Rays. Perhaps it was no coincidence that the next
: batter, catcher Shawn Riggins, watched a similar Chamberlain fastball zip by
: before lining into an inning-ending double play.

儘管小王仍然是這場比賽最重要的關鍵，但在用球數已高，並且在七局壘上兩人沒有人
出局的情況下，喬巴上場了。他僅僅只用了三顆球，就把Aybar趕回休息室，並帶給其
他打者無形的恐懼。或許這也證實了在下一棒捕手Shawn Riggins打擊的時候，放過喬巴
一顆快速球，而導致接下來雙殺出現結束這局的危機。

: "The first one caught me a little off guard, 101 mph," Riggans said. "You
: don't see that every day. He's got a great arm. He's got electric stuff. He
: threw a real good slider to Willy the at-bat before me. I had that in the
: back of my mind."

"那個飆上101英里的快速球真的嚇到我了"，Riggans這麼說，"那可不是平常就可以看
到的。他擁有優秀的手臂，還有令人震驚的才能。在我之前他用一顆非常犀利的滑球
解決掉了Willy，輪到我打擊的時候，那影子在我心裡揮之不去。"

: Leave it to Chamberlain to grow something of a legend, still less than one
: year into his Major League career. On a day that saw Wang dazzle the crowd by
: taking a no-hitter into the fifth inning and Hideki Matsui win the game by
: launching a two-run homer in the fourth, Chamberlain still commanded nearly
: all the attention.

或許喬巴在MLB的職業生涯還不到一年的時間，但在小王完全封鎖了五局對方的打者，
沒讓任何一支安打，以及松井在四局致勝的兩分打點全壘打的同場精采表現之下，喬巴
的表現，仍然使他贏得並掌控了絕大數現場洋基球迷的心。

: He pitched two innings in all, following his escape act in the seventh with a
: perfect -- and perfectly economical -- eighth. His fastballs, more than
: anything, earned the attention of the radar gun, and certainly the attention
: of the crowd.

喬巴投了兩局，連兩局完美的演出。但比起任何東西，只有他的快速球，才完全抓住了
現場測速槍以及所有洋基迷的注意力。

: "You still have to locate and throw a good pitch," Chamberlain said. "But it
: gives you a little bit of error. You can't rely on that, because then you get
: too complacent and you leave one over. It doesn't really matter how hard you
: throw to these guys, because it can come in 101 mph, but it's going to leave
: about 140 mph and go about 500 feet. You've still got to be good with your
: stuff."

"你仍然需要投好每一球"，喬巴這麼說，"但他至少可以給你一點優勢去犯錯。但你不
可以完全的依賴球速，因為不管你多麼用盡力氣的去投球，甚至超過101英里，站在打擊
區的那些傢伙，依然可以把他回擊成140英里而且輕鬆飛越500呎的全壘打。所以你仍然
需要投好每一球，做好自己的每一項工作。"

: He was. So was Mariano Rivera, who pitched a perfect ninth inning, and so was
: Wang, who added a nearly flawless opening six. Wang sprinkled in a greater
: percentage of sliders and changeups on Sunday, even supplementing his
: trademark sinker with a few split-fingered fastballs. He claimed he wanted
: simply to "try and find more ways to get hitters out."

喬巴的確做到了。MO也是，完美的結束了九局上的投球。當然，還有小王。小王主投了
六局，幾乎沒有缺點的表現，小王增加了滑球以及變速球的用球比，當然還有他的註冊
商標伸卡球及幾顆叉指變速球，小王說其實他只是想要試著找出更多能解決打者的方法
而已。

: It certainly worked, because the Rays couldn't even touch Wang until Aybar
: singled with one out in the fifth inning. Wang ended the inning with one of
: his six strikeouts and ended his day after allowing four hits and two walks
: in all.

這樣的配球完全奏效，因為光芒的打者們幾乎連小王的球的摸不到，直到五局Aybar終
於才擊出了全隊的第一支安打，不過隨即被小王今天的第六個三振瓦解了這局的攻勢。
小王總計六局被敲4安打2保送並且沒有失掉任何一分。

: "It seemed like his fastball was moving a lot," Johnny Damon said, observing
: from out in left field. "It definitely kept them off guard. He was making it
: look pretty easy."

"小王今天的快速球看起來真的超會跑"，囧尼稱讚的這樣說著，從他防守的左外野時
觀察而來，"小王看起來輕輕鬆鬆的投球，卻完全把打者們看守在外。"

: Wang had a brief scare after slipping on the mound in the fourth inning,
: though a quick check from the Yankees training staff proved that everything
: was sound.

小王在四局的犁田看起來受到了相當的驚嚇，好在經過防護員快速的檢查之後，也證實了
只是虛驚一場，並無大礙。

: His pitching, along with that of Chamberlain and Rivera, took nearly all the
: strategy away from manager Joe Girardi, who was back in the dugout on Sunday
: for the first time since being laid low by an upper respiratory infection.
: There will be choices to make later this year, when the team must decide
: whether to keep Chamberlain in his current role, a job he's certainly
: embraced, or convert him back into a starter. Should Chamberlain continue to
: succeed like this, the decision might prove vexing.

小王的優質先發以及喬巴和MO的好投，看起來完全照著總教練Joe Girardi的如意算盤在
走，Girardi也自呼吸道感染後重新回到場邊坐鎮。教練與球團必須決定是否要調整喬巴
的定位，是要維持現狀或是改為先發，喬巴是否又能保持目前的高水準表現，這些問題
也的確夠讓人傷透腦筋了，不過這應該也都是下個球季的事情了。

: Yet on Sunday, strong pitching made Girardi's decisions easy. His team lost
: two straight this week when he was confined to his couch, so Sunday provided
: a bit of a cure.
: "I actually feel a little bit better," Girardi said, "now that we won."

然而在這個週日，投手們優秀的投球內容，也幫助Girardi的調度更加的簡單明確。當他
因病無法坐在場邊的時候，他所率領的洋基在本週對坦帕灣來的球隊二連敗，因此這場
比賽似乎也適時的給了他一劑特效藥。

"我的確感到好多了"，總教練Girardi這麼說道，"我們開始贏球了!!"

[譯後註]

的確這邊對於喬巴的描述遠多於小王(所以全文才沒人翻譯嗎?)，但是在看完小王精采的投
球內容之後，我也很開心能夠看到set-up的喬巴和終結者老MO，能順利完成球賽，把握
住小王的勝投，也幫洋基拿下一場場的勝利。小王的優質先發、喬巴爆表的速球及老MO
的危機處理經驗，相信在往後的日子也是值得我們信賴的勝利方程式，就讓我們支持小
王的同時也繼續的為他們加油吧!!
