Damon, Ming set for home opener
Kansas City (2-3) at New York (2-4), Tuesday, 1:05 p.m. ET
By Mark Feinsand / MLB.com
After 45 days of Spring Training and a week-long trip to the West Coast to
start the season, the Yankees are finally headed home.
經過45天的春訓和開季一星期到西岸的客場長征 洋基隊終於要回家了
The Yankees will host the Royals in the Yankee Stadium opener on Tuesday,
looking to build on their big win over the Angels on Sunday afternoon.
星期二洋基將在洋基球場迎接來訪的皇家隊
希望能再創星期天下午狂電天使的勝利
"Yankee Stadium is very special most of the time, but Opening Day is pretty
darn special," said manager Joe Torre. "We're anxious to go home. It's been
two months since most of us have been home. It's been a long time."
老教頭Joe Torre說"在洋基球場大部分時間都很特別 開幕戰更特別
在外已經有兩個月 我們渴望回家 "
New York had dropped four straight before beating Bartolo Colon, with the win
providing a positive vibe heading into Monday's off-day.
在重擊Bartolo Colon前 洋基已經吞下四連敗
而這場勝利讓他們帶著微笑面對星期一的移動休息日
"We're not happy about being 2-4, but it's better than 1-5," said Johnny
Damon. "This team started out bad last year, so they know how to come back.
With all the talent in this room, there's no reason we can't roll off a very
long winning streak."
大門說"2勝4敗我們可不高興 但總比1勝5敗好得多 去年球隊開季打得也不好
也知道如何逆轉 有這麼多好手 沒理由不會一路贏下去"
Damon will surely be in the spotlight on Tuesday, as he takes the field at
the Stadium for the first time in pinstripes. After four years as a member of
the enemy Red Sox, Damon is looking forward to seeing what life is like on
the other side.
星期二 大門勢必成為焦點 這是他第一次穿上條紋衣在主場出賽
在死對頭紅襪隊待了四年 大門想看看在另一邊的日子會如何
"I'm excited about playing in front of the fans who, over the years, have
come to know me as a player on another team," Damon said. "Now they get to
see me for 81 days at Yankee Stadium, they get to see the way I approach the
game, my love for the game and the way I'm going to help this team win."
大門說"我很興奮在這些過去把我視為敵對球員的球迷面前比賽
現在他們要看到我在洋基球場出賽81天 他們可以看到我如何面對比賽
以及我對比賽的熱愛 以及我如何幫助球隊贏得勝利"
"The exposure I've had to Johnny's personality, I think he'll go a long way
toward keeping this club as loose as it can be," Torre said. "He seems very
comfortable. I'm not saying he's gong to make every play, but emotionally, I
don't think it's going to take a long adjustment."
老托說"以我對大門的了解 我想他會盡量讓球隊放鬆 他看起來還蠻自在的
我並不是說他可以很快就上手 但情感上我不認為他需要很多調整時間"
Alex Rodriguez, who had his own home opener experience two years ago,
believes that Damon will have no problem with the pressure that comes along
with wearing the historic uniform.
兩年前也經歷過洋基主場開幕首戰的Alex Rodriguez相信大門沒有問題
可以處理穿上歷史的條紋衣
"I think Johnny is made for New York," Rodriguez said. "I think he's going
to do great and the fans are really going to welcome him. I think he's a
perfect fit."
A-Rod說"我想是屬於紐約的 他會表現得很好 球迷會很歡迎他 他很適合的"
Chien-Ming Wang gets the start for the Yankees, taking the mound for his
first home opener. Wang allowed four runs (two earned) in 4 2/3 innings in
his first start this year, recording a no-decision against Oakland.
在主場開幕賽中 王建民將先發出賽 在他本季初登版中對運動家隊投了4 2/3局
失四分(2分自責) 無關勝敗
Wang pitched well at home last season, going 5-2 with a 3.55 ERA in 10 games,
nine of them starts. Despite Wang's age and relative inexperience, Torre
doesn't think that he'll have a problem being overwhelmed by the situation.
去年小王在主場表現不錯 出賽十場(9場先發)戰績5勝2敗 防禦率3.55
儘管小王很年輕缺乏經驗但老托認為他沒問題 也不會這樣的陣仗打敗
"Sometimes, a little bit of a language barrier is an advantage, not having to
answer a lot of questions," Torre said. "It protects you, somewhat. The way
he took to the role last year, if it wasn't for that calm, I seriously doubt
he would have been able to handle that as easily as he seemed to."
老托說"有時候一點語言障礙反而是優勢 不必回答太多問題
(嘿嘿小王的陰謀被發現了) 某種程度上保護了他 要不是那樣平靜
以他去年扮演那樣的角色 我很懷疑他可以像他看起來那樣輕鬆面對"
The Yankees beat two former Cy Young winners on the road trip, hammering
Barry Zito and Colon for their two victories. The other four games were
winnable for New York, but the offense couldn't get the timely hit in some
games, while the bullpen and defense had problems in another.
洋基在客場唯二的兩勝中 重擊兩位前賽揚獎得主Zito和 Colon
另外四場本來能贏的 但有些比賽中打線缺乏適時火力而牛棚和守備也有些問題
With a team ERA of 3.04, the Yankees have pitched well enough to win, giving
Torre and his troops a good feeling as they head home.
全隊3.04的防禦率 洋基投手群已經表現得好到足以贏球
也讓老托和他的團隊帶著很好的感覺回家
"We just have to get rolling; you can't get too caught up in the first four
or five games of the season," Rodriguez said. "A lot of good things have
happened, especially from a pitching and defense standpoint. We're a little
inconsistent with our offense, but we're going to be fine."
A-Rod說"我們要繼續 不要被一開始的四五場比賽困住 裡面我們已經看到一些好現象
尤其是投球和防守 攻擊上有些不穩定 但會好轉的"
"The two pitchers that we beat, they were quality pitchers," Torre said.
"That does a little more for you. Hopefully going home, we can get something
going as far as consistency in swinging the bats."
老托說"被我們打敗的兩個投手都是非常夠格的投手 也蠻有意義的
希望回到家 在揮棒上也能夠一直保持穩定"
Pitching matchup
NYY: RHP Chien-Ming Wang (0-0, 3.86 ERA)
Wang has never faced the Royals, but he is 3-0 with a 2.67 ERA against AL
Central teams.
KC: RHP Joe Mays, (0-1, 12.46 ERA)
Mays went 0-1 with a 5.54 ERA in two starts against the Yankees in 2005.
Player to watch
Robinson Cano went 5-for-7 (.714) with two doubles and four RBIs against Mays
last season. Cano is one of seven Yankees hitters to hit .300 or better
against Mays.
-----------
希望小王別想太多 就好好調整自己的投球動作
打線的事就讓那些大明星傷腦筋吧
