Now Batting, a Few Yankees Who Can at Least Hope
練習打擊囉~~投手們 ^.<
PHILADELPHIA — Andy Pettitte held his black Louisville Slugger bat close to
his chest, treating it as carefully as if he were carrying a 3-month-old baby.
He wore blue-and-white batting gloves and a blue helmet. He was a pitcher
trying to prove that he could fake it as a hitter.
先來看看第三戰的先發--派派
“I’ve got my name on it,” Pettitte said, happily displaying the barrel of
the bat. “I’ve got my own signature model.”
Now that the setting for the World Series has switched to this National
League city for the next three games, the Yankees will watch pitchers bat
against the Phillies. The Yankees will try not to grimace as pitchers who
have not swung bats for four months will swing them in the most important
games of the season. Pettitte will be the first to take some cuts, in Game 3
on Saturday night.
“Hopefully, I get a hit somewhere,” said Pettitte, who did not sound too
hopeful.
"希望能把球打出去"派派不是很有信心
Actually, the Yankees will probably not cringe when C. C. Sabathia hits in
Game 4 or 5. More than any Yankee pitcher, Sabathia, who is 6 feet 7 inches
and more than 300 pounds, looks and acts like a hitter. Sabathia stands tall
in the batter’s box, holds the bat steady, takes a short stride into the ball
and has a fluid swing.
再來看看又高又壯的CC
Sabathia also has a strategy that could be called the Babe Ruth approach.
Pettitte laughed as he explained that the difference between him and Sabathia
is that Pettitte is trying to “get the ball through the infield” and
Sabathia is trying to bash the ball 400 feet, but Pettitte was not joking.
CC的貝比魯斯策略:把球打遠到400呎外。相較之下派派只是試著把球打出內野
Sabathia confirmed Pettitte’s characterization. “I’m trying to hit a
homer,” Sabathia said. “If I hit a single, I hit a single. I hit a double,
I hit a double. I’m trying to go deep.”
CC說:"我要打全壘打! ^_^ 能打多遠就打多遠"
In addition to looking the part of a hitter, Sabathia also has the best
statistics among Yankee pitchers. Sabathia is 24 for 92 (a .261 average) with
3 homers and 14 runs batted in. Surprisingly, Sabathia has only one walk and
three sacrifice bunts in his career, overwhelming evidence that he considers
himself a hitter and not a pitcher who is trying to hit. He uses a 35-inch,
33-ounce bat, which is heavier than Albert Pujols’s bat.
過去的打擊數據也證實了CC是洋基投手群裡的最佳打者，當他打擊的時候，
他把自己當打者而非投手；CC的球棒甚至比Pujols的還重
Pettitte, who swings a 34-inch, 31-ounce bat, is much more of hacker. As
Pettitte took his initial swings against Tony Pena’s 70-mile-per-hour
fastballs Friday, he showed little bat speed. Still, the bar was so low that
Robinson Cano gave Pettitte a high-five because Pettitte lifted a ball to the
outfield.
“There was never any point where I was the best hitter on my team,”
Pettitte said. “I think I hit like .350 in high school, but I didn’t have
any home runs. Even in my senior year, I only hit on the days I pitched.”
派派回憶道:"我在中學的時候打擊率是三成五，可是從沒打過全壘打"
The more Pettitte swung Friday, the more comfortable he became. Pettitte hit
several line drives to left field, prompting Derek Jeter to shout, “That a
boy, Pe-tee-tay.”
週五的練習看起來不錯
Reggie Jackson, the Hall of Famer who is a Yankees adviser, challenged
Pettitte.
“You got the line drives,” Jackson said. “You got any pop?”
Reggie Jackson"挑戰"派派 (......XD)
Pettitte pulled off his helmet and smiled. But Pettitte met the challenge and
followed with a shot that nearly hit the left-field warning track. Pettitte,
who is 25 for 186 (.134) with one homer, is the only current Yankee pitcher
with a hit in the World Series. He had a single in a 15-2 loss to the Arizona
Diamondbacks in Game 6 in 2001 and is 2 for 16 in the postseason.
派派是目前洋基投手群中唯一在世界大賽擊出過安打的人
“Being in the N.L. definitely helped me,” said Pettitte, who played with
the Houston Astros for three seasons. “At times, I felt like I had a
chance.”
當然在國聯待過是有幫助的
If Chad Gaudin starts Game 4, does he have a prayer of getting a hit? It
would be stunning, because he is 1 for 32 with 16 strikeouts. A. J. Burnett,
who is a candidate to start Game 5, was with the Florida Marlins for seven
seasons and has more at-bats than any other Yankee pitcher. But that also
means Burnett has failed a lot. He is 35 for 266 (.132) with 3 homers and a
whopping 126 strikeouts. Mostly, Manager Joe Girardi hopes the pitchers are
skillful enough to produce some sacrifice bunts.
儘管在馬林魚待了七年，AJ的打擊記錄......(掩面)
Throughout Sabathia’s batting practice, Jeter teased Sabathia after the
pitcher clubbed some impressive shots. During Sabathia’s last round, he
lined a ball over the right-field fence for one of those homers that he
routinely tries to deliver.
“Yeah, we can go now,” shouted Jeter, who began walking off the field.
隊長開CC玩笑，說我們可以走了
Two minutes later, all the Yankees walked off the field, too. Sabathia and
the other pitchers were finished hitting. Soon, the Yankees will discover if
they are finished hitting for their entire visit here.
很快就能知道這次打擊練習的成果了
