Hernandez makes return to Bronx

One step forward and one step back later, the Mets are right back where they
started.
Things aren't as bad as they were -- Friday's win at least planted the
impression that the ice-cold Mets could beat the red-hot Yankees -- but
they're certainly no better. It took just a half-day after that victory for
all of early June's bad habits to seep back, dragging the Mets back down to
where they were.
If Friday's Subway Series opener was a sign that times might be changing,
Saturday's follow-up bluntly set everything back to where it was. The Yankees
are still red-hot, the Mets still ice-cold heading into Sunday's finale.
"It's an important game, just because we're scuffling a little bit, and
they're playing well," said Mets third baseman David Wright. "This is a good
test for us to go in there and play well."
So after Friday's false start, the Mets are still searching for the seam to
turn things around. Sunday night might not seem like the best time -- not
against a Yankees team that currently seems as close to invincible as can be
-- but the next two weeks don't hold many weak spots with upcoming series
against the Twins, A's, Cardinals and Phillies.
The Mets don't have to be completely flat entering that stretch, but in order
to inflate, they'll first need to take Sunday's game amid the glitz of a
Subway Series finale.
"It's not going to be easy, because they got a very good team over there,"
said Mets shortstop Jose Reyes. "But we've got a chance to win the series."
And though it's not the biggest game they're likely to see this year, it
won't hurt for the Mets to have one of the league's best big-game pitchers
towing the load. Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez enters Sunday's game against
his first Major League team riding the high of one of the best stretches of
his career but feeling the low of an outing that ranked closer to his worst.
So it's been for most of the Mets, bolting out of the gate only to trip over
that success come June. And now El Duque -- and the Mets -- have a chance to
turn the corner.
To do so would mean to fight through the sinkerballs of Chien-Ming Wang, one
of the American League's hottest starters. Since returning from an
early-season hamstring injury, Wang has anchored the Yankees' staff,
flourishing even while the rest of his rotation floundered.
若想真的擺脫低潮取得系列賽勝利的話，意味著將面對伸卡球投手－王建民。
小王是目前美聯狀態最好的投手之一，自從春訓肌肉拉傷回來後，
他不僅穩固了軍心，甚至在其他投手慌亂時，仍然繁盛屹立不搖。
"Make him throw the ball up," Reyes said of his approach against Wang. "If
his pitches go down, there's going to be a lot of ground balls."
Reyes說他對小王的對策是促使他把球投高，
因為球投低的話，那將會出現很多滾地球。
And with a lot of ground balls, there won't be many runs. El Duque isn't
liable to allow many, either, giving Sunday's game the potential to reverse
the trend of Saturday's slugfest and head back in the direction of Friday's
pitchers' duel.
大量的滾球可能無法製造許多分數，而公爵也不是省油的燈，
這讓星期日的比賽有了將星期六激烈混鬥的打擊戰，
扭轉回歸到星期五那樣的投手戰的潛力。
"Runs are going to be at a minimum," Wright said. "It's going to be like the
first game of the series, where you really have to take advantage of every
opportunity."
Wright說這將是低比分的比賽，就像是第一場一樣，你得把握每一個機會來進攻。
Pitching matchup
NYM: RHP Orlando Hernandez (3-2, 2.38 ERA)
El Duque wasn't immune to the struggles that plagued the whole rotation
during the Mets' West Coast trip, allowing more than two runs in a start --
this time, it was four -- for just the second time this season. He could
easily have twice as many wins as he does this year, but poor run support has
hurt him. He'll need support to beat his former team -- in three career
starts against the Yankees, El Duque is 0-3.
NYY: RHP Chien-Ming Wang (6-4, 3.49 ERA)
Wang has reassumed his role as rock of the rotation, coming off two starts --
both wins -- in which he allowed a combined two runs in 16 innings. He has
won five of his last six starts and is primed for a new experience: Sunday
will mark the first Subway Series outing of his career.
小王在投手輪值中奠基了穩固的角色，近二場比賽，二連勝的他在16局中僅僅失掉2分。
在近六場比賽中，取得五勝的佳績，而星期天將是他面對梅子的生涯初次對戰。
Player to watch
Outfielder-turned-designated hitter Johnny Damon holds a .390 career average
in 41 career at-bats against El Duque. And while there's not much power -- he
has just one double and one home run among those 16 hits -- there's plenty of
speed; he has swiped four bases off the right-hander's notoriously slow
delivery.
大門生涯面對公爵，41打數有16支安打，打擊率高達3成9，但是僅只有1支二壘安打和
1支全壘打，雖然沒有很多支長打，但是因為公爵出名的慢節奏，有四次盜壘成功的紀錄。
