: Forget the Pitching Woes. It’s Hitting That’s Giving the Yankees Problems.
忘掉投手的悲痛 現在是打擊給洋基麻煩

: By TYLER KEPNER
: Published: May 19, 2007
: There were no Steinbrenners in the field box beside the Yankees’ dugout at
: Shea Stadium last night. Legends Field in Tampa, Fla., was the place to be.
: That is where hope took the mound in the presence of Roger Clemens, the man
: the Yankees are hoping will save their shaky season.
: But Clemens is a pitcher, not a hitter, and the Yankees need more of the
: latter right now. They fell meekly to the Mets, 3-2. General Manager Brian
: Cashman watched from the front row as Andy Pettitte lost another well-pitched
: game.
昨晚大老闆老史沒有坐在Shea球場洋基球員休息室旁的包廂裡
而是在佛羅里達坦帕的傳奇球場 等待Roger Clemens的出現
期待他能拯救洋基搖搖晃晃的球季
但老克是投手 不是打者 現在洋基比較需要打者
他們昨晚以3-2敗給大都會 總經理現金人坐在前排
看著Andy Pettitte又輸掉一場好投

: The Yankees have scored two runs or fewer in 6 of their 11 games since
: Clemens signed May 6. They have lost six of their past eight games, and their
: pitchers have little margin for error.
自從5月6日老克宣布簽約加入洋基之後
最近的11場比賽中有6場得分兩分或不超過兩分 他們的投手責任不大

: The team’s rough start was easier to explain in April, when four starting
: pitchers were on the disabled list and the Yankees’ brawny offense could not
: keep up. Now, an offense that seemed capable of scoring 1,000 runs has
: stalled, bumping the Yankees to 10 games behind Boston in the American League
: East.
四月球隊生鏽的開季很容易解釋 因為有四位先發投手待在傷兵名單
而洋基的打線沒辦法趕上投手丟分的速度 現在這個好像有能力得1000分的打線生鏽了
讓洋基隊在美聯東區落後紅襪10場勝差

: “I have no doubt that we’re going to score runs and hit — and hit a lot —
: this year,” Cashman said before the game. “Right now, we’re not doing it.
: But I continue to believe in the players we have here, especially the ones
: struggling right now.
總經理現金人在賽前表示"我毫不懷疑今年我們將打擊多 得很多分
但我們現在並沒做到 但我持續相信我們在這兒的球員 尤其是那些現在在掙扎的選手"

: “I have no doubts, and it’s just a timing issue. It’s not a matter of if,
: but when. That’s a fact.”
"我毫不懷疑 只是時間問題 這是事實"

: Two seasons ago, when the Yankees struggled into June, Cashman responded by
: promoting Robinson Cano to starting second baseman and making center fielder
: Bernie Williams a part-time player. But there is little shuffling he can do
: this time, and nothing he would even want to change.
兩個球季前 當洋基隊在六月跌跌撞撞 現金人把Cano升上來擔任先發二壘手
讓老威兼職上場擔任中外野手 但現在他能做的並不多 他也不想改變什麼
(**是啊 難道要把老威找回來嗎?**)

: “Obviously, we’re better than what we’re showing,” Cashman said. “I
: believe in all the people that are here.”
現金人說"很顯然 我們的實力比表現出來的好 我相信在這兒的所有人"
(**我也相信 但為什麼會那麼囧~~~**)

: With the personnel not changing, Manager Joe Torre was left to juggle the
: lineup. He did so again Friday, benching Bobby Abreu for the first time this
: season. Jason Giambi, who is hobbled by a bone spur in his left heel, was
: also on the bench.
人員沒有變動 總教練老托只能動動打線順序
星期五他又這麼做 第一次讓阿布坐板凳休息 還有左腳有骨刺的大吉

: The result, though, was a bottom of the order that looked meager: Melky
: Cabrera (batting .226 at game time) in the sixth spot, followed by Cano
: (.234), Josh Phelps (.256) and Pettitte.
讓小卡布打第六棒 Cano打第七 接下來是Phelps然後是投手
結果打線後段看起很囧

: Through the first seven innings, the Yankees moved up a runner only twice:
: with a ground ball in the first inning and with Hideki Matsui’s two-run
: homer in the fourth. Matsui’s home run drove in Jorge Posada, the American
: League’s leading hitter, who had singled. It gave the Yankees a 2-1 lead,
: but it was the only extra-base hit they managed off Mets starter Oliver
: Perez.
前七局只有兩次推進跑者 第一局的滾地球 以及第四局松井的兩分打點全壘打
松井的全壘打推進了Posada 這位全美聯打擊率領先的打者 前面有一支一壘安打
這給了洋基2-1的領先 這也是唯一一次他們從大都會的先發投手Perez手中推進得分

: When Derek Jeter led off with a single in the sixth, the Yankees were
: helpless to advance him. Alex Rodriguez, who has for hits in his past 32
: at-bats, struck out on a 92 mile-an-hour fastball at the knees. Posada lined
: out and Matsui flied out, ending the inning.
當第六局Jeter一上場就擊出一壘安打 洋基卻沒有辦法讓他前進
A-Rod被膝蓋高度92 mph的速球三振 Posada滾地出局 松井高飛球出局 結束了這半局

: There was another lonely single in the seventh inning, by Cano, who was
: erased on a double play by Phelps to end the inning. Giambi was on deck at
: the time, but when the eighth inning started, Abreu was the one who
: pinch-hit.
在第七局又一支寂寞的一壘安打 由Cano擊出
但隨後被Phelps的雙殺打給抹滅  這是大吉已經在準備區
但第八局開始 阿布上場代打

: He struck out looking, the first of three Yankees to fan in the eighth. Damon
: went down on a checked swing and Jeter on a called third strike from reliever
: Joe Smith. The Yankees looked tentative — in between, in the baseball
: vernacular — and closer Billy Wagner held them in the ninth.
他站著被三振 接下來大門也被三振 Jeter也被中繼投手Smith三振
他們看起來猶豫不決 第九局終結者Wagner凍結了他們

: “There’s a lot of frustration in our clubhouse,” Torre said before the
: game. “Nothing you’d characterize as unrest, just knowing we’re a better
: club.”
老托在賽前說"我們球隊遇到很多挫折 但你沒看到不安 只要知道我們比較好"

: Better than whom? Certainly not the Mets, not last night, and not for this
: season.
比誰好?顯然不是大都會 也不是昨晚 也不是這個球季.....
