April 28, 2006 http://0rz.net/a91hZ Hey Fans: Well, we're about twenty games into the season, it almost feels like this is an extended Spring Training. Until this homestand, we only played three games at Yankee Stadium. The team is getting into a rhythm, though. We are playing almost every day, with lots of night games and lots of travel days.I am a creature of habit (as are many of my teammates). We are more comfortable when we can settle into our normal routine. 嗨我的球迷們：這一球季我們大約已經進行了20場的比賽，這感覺起來幾乎像是延長的春訓。直到回到homestand，我們在洋基球場打了3 場。不過，我們的球隊越來越進入節奏了。我們幾乎每天比賽，許多的夜間比賽和許多的移動日。我是一種習慣的動物(跟我的大多數隊友一樣)。當我們能安頓下來熟悉一切時，我們會更進入狀況。 When you look at our record, I believe you do not see the true makeup of this Yankee team. We haven't really begun to run on all cylinders. If you follow the Yankees, I think you've seen flashes of brilliance from everyone in our lineup -- our starting rotation, our deep bench, and our bullpen. We just haven't been as consistent as we can be. We should probably have at least three or four more "W's" in the win column, but that's baseball. It's a long season, and a lot can happen in 162 games. I don't want to be playing in September and looking back regretfully at games in April, though. 當你看我們的比賽記錄時，我相信你們還沒看透洋基。我們其實還沒開始在全部的環節運轉。如果你支持並且願意跟隨我們，我認為你已經從在我們打線中的每個人看見光輝與閃耀(XD..)。-- 包括我們的先發投手輪值、球員休息室、和牛棚。我們儘可能的始終如一，拿出我們應有的實力。我們或許應該在比賽紀錄欄裡有更多的勝場數，但是這是棒球，整個球季很長，在這162場比賽中什麼都有可能發生。我不想要在9月就宣佈我這一球季提早結束。 As for me, a lot has been written the past week about how hard I am on myself-- that I put too much pressure on myself to succeed and that I am never satisfied with my performance. Well, in many ways, this is true. I do expect a lot, however I don't expect too much out of myself. I believe that we all have to be leaders on this team, and we're all responsible for the outcome of every game. So it's important for me to go out there every single day, and take responsibility for what I have to do. 過去幾週的日記我已經寫了很多關於自己的事 -- 我把太多壓力放在自己是否成功，而且我對我的表現從未滿意。嗯，在很多方面，都是這樣的。我期望很多，但是我卻沒從自己身上得到相同的期望。我相信我們任何隊友在洋基中都是領導人，並且我們對每場比賽的結果都要負責。因此我每天到這邊來，對我必須做的事負責。 Next week will certainly be interesting as we head to Boston. This will be the first time Johnny Damon returns to face his former team. Johnny has made such an easy transition to our club. He's been a positive force in our lineup, and in our clubhouse. Sometimes I almost forget he spent the last four years in Boston. Personally, I think the Boston fans should stand up and cheer for Johnny. He was such an important part of the Red Sox. Without him, they would not have won the 2004 World Series. Still, I expect he'll hear a lot of boos. I think it's because those fans are heartbroken that he's gone. Oh yeah, and because he's a now a Yankee. That's all it takes. 下周當然是有趣的，因為我們將前往波士頓。這將是Johnny Damon回來波士頓的第一場比賽。他使我們的打線更有力量。有時我幾乎忘記他在波士頓待過4年。就我來說，我認為波士頓球迷應該站起來並且給Johnny Damon加油。他對紅襪來說是相當重要的一部分。如果沒有他，紅襪根本不會贏得2004年世界大賽冠軍。不過我的預測還是他將聽到許多噓聲。我認為這是因為那些球迷極度傷心Damon 的離開。更遑論是加入洋基。 While the fans and media will be making a big deal out of that, as a team, we have to focus on our opponents and just play our game. Whether it's May 1 or Oct. 1, there's always more adrenaline flowing when we play Boston. Right now, we have to go up there and be consistent, and keep it going in Tampa and in Texas. 當那些球迷和媒體將在這上面大作文章時，做為一個球隊，我們必須集中精神在我們的對手上。不管5月1日還是10月1日，當我們在波士頓比賽時，總會分泌更多的腎上腺素(XD..)。現在，我們必須在那做最好準備，並且一直保持到接下來客場面對魔鬼魚與游騎兵的比賽。 Cynthia and I are thrilled to be back in New York City for the season. We really missed the city over the winter, and have enjoyed getting back into our routine here. New York City really has the most wonderful restaurants, shopping and culture. We've been visiting all our favorite haunts, and looking for new ones in our neighborhood. Now that Natasha is walking around, we've become familiar with Central Park as well. She really loves to be outdoors and she loves animals, so the park and the zoo are her favorite places in the city. We're really looking forward to the longer homestands -- when we can spend some real quality time here as a family. 老婆和我都很興奮能回到紐約。雖然我們錯過了在冬天的紐約，而我們回來之後還是喜愛這裡。紐約真的有最令人驚嘆的餐廳，購物商圈和文化。我們一直參觀我們最喜愛且常去的地方，並且在我們的附近尋找新的景點。我女兒現在正到處逛，我們也已經熟悉了中央公園。她真的喜歡戶外活動，也喜歡小動物，因此公園、動物園是她最喜愛的地方。我們真的期待更長的主場比賽 -- 因為在這裡我們花費了一些的時間來維繫一個家庭。 Before I close, I want to share one last thing that occurred this week. I was presented with the 2005 American League MVP Award in front of the fans at Yankee Stadium. I received the award at the baseball writer's dinner in January already, but to receive it in front of the greatest fans in the world was very special. During the ceremony, I was thinking of how the fans welcomed and accepted me during my first two years here, and I was so proud to be able to share the honor with them. Then I looked up at the facing of the upper deck and saw the "26 World Championships" sign. I immediately began to think how it would feel hoist a World Series trophy over my head instead. I have dreamt of that day since I first played the game of baseball, and I want the fans to know that this is my goal -- we'll bring a World Series championship back to the Bronx yet. This is my commitment to myself, the team and you. 最後，我想要分享這一星期發生的一些事情。我在洋基球場接下2005 美聯MVP這個獎項。我其實在1月時就已經拿到獎了，但是在洋基球場，在這世界上最偉大的球迷面前得到它是非常特別的。在頒獎典禮期間，我想著球迷怎樣歡迎我。而且在我前兩年剛來洋基時接受我，我如此的榮幸能與你們分享這個榮耀。我向上看看到球場上層掛著"26次贏得世界大賽冠軍"的標誌。我立刻感覺到世界大賽冠軍是我所追求的。從我開始打棒球以來那一直是我的夢想，並且我想要讓你們知道這是我的目標 -- 我們將帶一座世界大冠軍回來Bronx。這是我對我自己、球隊、和你的承諾。 Until next time, thanks for checking in. 謝謝你們。下次見。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 219.86.41.35 ※ 編輯: y2jj 來自: 219.86.41.35 (05/02 20:27)
