: "Like I say, it's almost embarassing to talk about. I don't know if

: this type of money, but that's the market we're in today. That's what Mr.
: Hicks decided to pay me, and now it's time to pay him back and win a
: couple championships."
「就像是我所說的,不過說起來有點丟人就是了。我不知道包括麥可‧喬登、
比爾‧蓋茲,甚至亞力山大大帝在內,有沒有任何一個人值這麼多錢,但那
就是今天的市場機制。希克先生決定付我錢,而現在正是以贏得幾座冠軍金
盃來回饋他的最佳時機。」

: each other and motivate each other. But, when we're off the field, we're
: like family. I think the nice thing about it is we became good friends
: before we even mad it to the big leagues. That makes it more of a healthy
: relationship."
「我想,Jeter和我彼此都想幹掉對方,我們彼此鞭策激勵著彼此。但是,當我們
走出球場後,就像是一家人一樣。我認為這是件好事,我們在進大聯盟之前就是
好朋友了,這讓我們倆的關係非常健康。」
: "We (Derek Jeter and I) always talk about getting old, gray, and fat when
: our careers are over and just having a good time. He's like me. He wants
: to have a good time and be a good person. It's a weird situation for us.
: It's just like we're looking in the mirror. the only difference is I'm on
: the West Coast and he's on the East Coast."

: Quotations About Alex Rodriguez
給A-Rod的話
: "Alex is going to be among the elite. If he comes even close to the
: season he had last year, he'll be in his own league. You try to compare
: him to somebody, but you can't. He is the only one who has done what he
: has done." - Alan Trammell
Alan Trammell說:
「A-Rod正擠進超級巨星之列。他本季只要能達到跟他去年差不多的成績,那麼他
的對手便只剩下自己了。你想拿別人跟他相比,但這辦不到。他的成就是獨一
無二的。」
: "Alex is playful, enthusiastic, and cheerful. He's fun to have around." -
: Ken Griffey, Jr.
小葛說:
「A-Rod這個人愛玩、熱情又好相處,有他在身邊很快樂。」
: "He is what baseball needs right now. He respects the game, has a lot of
: class and image most people would pay for. I wish my daughter could marry
: him, but she's only two years old." - Gary DiSarcina
Gary DiSarcina說:
「A-Rod是棒球最需要的人才。他尊重比賽,他的形象與品味讓人願意買票入場。」
「我希望我女兒可以嫁給他,可惜她現在才二歲。」
: "He learned in one or two years what it took me ten years to learn. He
: uses the whole field, foul line to foul line." - Edgar Martinez
Edgar Martinez說:
「我花了十年才學會的東西,他一、二年就搞定了。二條界外線間,整個球場都是
他的。」
: "I'm Alex's biggest fan. I brag on him so much that my teammates are sick
: and tired of me talking about him. Last year we talked all the time,
: especially early in the season. We both knew if we didn't get off to a
: good start, we might be shipped out." - Derek Jeter
Derek Jeter說:
「我是A-Rod的頭號球迷。我吹捧他吹到隊友們都覺得噁心了,每次講到A-Rod隊友
就嫌煩。去年我們聊了許多,尤其是季初左右,我們都知道要是不趕緊打出些好
成績,我們都可能被送走。」
: "Last season, Alex probably did Edgar (Martinez) better than Edgar did.
: It's amazing. With Alex, success comes with his strength, with his
: timing, with his weight shift, with his hands. Another year of two like
: that, kids will all be copying Alex. A lot of them probably are now." -
: Tony Gwynn
Tony Gwynn說:
「上一季,A-Rod大概比Edgar還Edgar,這太神奇了!有了A-Rod,勝利便隨著他的
力量、他的節奏、他的盡忠職守與他那雙巧手而來。再等個一、二年吧,要是他
還是這麼棒,那麼一堆模仿他的小A-Rod就會出現了。等一下,搞不好現在就有一
堆了呢。」
: "Money and fame are like dust. You aren't worth anything if you don't
: stay the same person you were before you had them." - Lourdes Navarro
: (Alex Rodriguez's mother)
A-Rod媽說:
「兒呀!名與利如塵土,如果你不能保持原來的模樣,那你啥也不是呀!」
: "Of course I voted for him as Player of the Year; who wouldn't? He took
: some inside-out swings against us that landed ten rows deep in
: right-center. He has done some amazing things at the most demanding
: position other than catcher. And he's what, only twenty-one? When I was
: twenty-one, I was sitting in class thinking I was going to be a high
: school teacher. He's out winning a batting title." - Gary DiSarcina
Gary DiSarcina又說:
「廢話!我當然選他為年度球員呀!誰不是呢!?他賞了我們幾記因賽傲的揮棒,
球兒都落在中右外野觀眾席十排以後。他在重要性僅次於捕手的位置上做到了許
多神奇的事,然後,什麼!?他才21歲!?回想我自己21歲時,還坐在教室
板凳上幻想著將來我要當一個高中老師哩!他卻已經在這兒贏得一個打擊頭銜了。」
: "The great thing is that he's always looking to improve. How good can he
: be? Well, we're talking about a guy who is Hall of Fame caliber." - Lou
: Piniella
Lou Piniella說:
「他最大的優點在於他知進取。他到底會有多棒呢?嘿,我們可是在談一個夠資格
進名人堂的傢伙耶!」
