"I like the routine," he said, "of playing every day." However, some believe it could do him good to get away and exhale. 在Alex Rodriguez的理想世界裡昨晚Fenway Park應該沒有下雨要進行另一場比賽他說"我喜歡規律每天打球" 然而有些人相信這樣對他比較好可以抽離鬆口氣 Joe Torre watches Rodriguez struggling these days and the Yankees manager openly wishes he wouldn't put so much pressure on himself. Or perhaps he shouldn't watch so much video before each game. Maybe not take extra hitting every single day. 這些日子老教頭Joe Torre看著A-Rod的掙扎而老教頭公開希望他不要給自己這麼多壓力或許他不應該在比賽前看太多錄影帶也許也不要在每一天都做額外的打擊練習 "He works so hard all the time, as hard as anyone," Torre said, "but sometimes I think he overdoes it, because if you think too much in this game, you stop reacting to it." 老托說"他總是非常認真像其他人一樣但有時我覺得他過頭了因為假如在比賽中想太多會讓你停止反應" Although Rodriguez never used the word "slump" last night, he clearly has not been as productive a hitter recently as in the last two seasons. After going 7-for-36, his average is down to .261, with five homers and 16 RBIs. He has only one extra-base hit since April 19, and has driven in only two runs in the last seven games. 雖然A-Rod昨晚絕口不提"低潮"這個字眼但很顯然最近他的產量並不像前兩個球季那樣豐沛經歷36打數7安打五支全壘打 16分打點打擊率降到.261 從四月十九日開始他僅有一個壘打數(**不知這樣是否正確?**) 並在過去七場比賽中只得了兩分 "One or two games," he said, "and you're right back in the mix of things." 他說"只有一兩場比賽然後就回來了" Rodriguez has still found ways to be productive. He's reached base in 14 straight games. Although he is 0-for-9, he walked five times in that span, and he points to that stretch as reason to believe he is inching close to breaking out. A-Rod仍然找到有產量的方法他已經連續十四場比賽都上壘雖然他的打擊表現是0-for-9 他五次被保送而且他指出這樣的現象顯示他就快破繭而出 "Look, I walked twice [Monday], and walks are always a good sign for me," Rodriguez said. "The key is to swing at strikes, have good at-bats, and I feel good." A-Rod說"看星期一我被保送兩次保送對我來說是好現象關鍵是要揮擊好球這顯示在打擊時我感覺不錯" Even if he hasn't looked comfortable at the plate; Torre said he looks "anxious" and is "fighting himself." So he has spent significant time watching video of himself. 即使他在本壘板前看起來並不自在老托說他看起來很焦躁和自己對抗著所以他花了很多時間觀看自己打擊的錄影帶 "He's trying to see something mechanical, approach-wise," Torre said, "but I think he's done it so often as far as swinging the bat that sometimes you get in your own way." 老托說"他試著要從動作上有所改進更聰明點但我認為目前為止他已經做太多了有時你只需要找到自己的方法" Rodriguez, however, said he uses video to look at his pitch selection more than anything else. He wants to get a hit so much sometimes he becomes too aggressive. "Sometimes I get frustrated because I want to participate and play, and hit versus just taking a walk, passing the baton and trusting the guy behind you," he said. 然而A-Rod自己表示他利用錄影帶來看自己的選球有時他太渴望有安打變得太積極他說 "有時我覺得很沮喪因為我想要參與想要比賽想要安打而不是只是保送接過接力棒信任我後面的傢伙(大吉?)" In his mind, the only way to break out is by fighting, doing it by himself. He goes to hitting coach Don Mattingly for guidance, to find out what he's seen from afar, but he believes it's up to himself to do some damage when he's given a pitch to hit. 在他心中打破僵局唯一方法是靠自己的"奮鬥" 他求教於打擊教練Don Mattingly 問問他旁觀者的觀點但他相信只要給他顆球他就能造成破壞 His confidence has not wavered. When it was mentioned he is going back to Texas this weekend, where he has hit well (.331 with 94 home runs in 1,073 at-bats), Rodriguez quickly dismissed that as a possible reason for an upcoming breakout. He thinks that can happen at any time, in any stadium. 他的自信並沒有動搖而這個週末他們將到德州在那兒他打得非常好 (1,073打數打擊率.331 94支全壘打) A-Rod很快地打消那是個可能爆發的的理由他認為爆發能在任何球場任何時間發生 "I feel like anytime I go to the box, something good is going to happen," A-Rod said. "Whether I'm 20-for-20 or 0-for-20, I feel something good will happen every time." 他說"我覺得在任何時間我上去好事即將發生不管是在我20-20或者0-20 每次我都覺得好事會發生" And the best thing to do is let the pitcher fear him and make his mistake first. 還有最好是讓投手怕他先犯錯 "Obviously, when I come to the plate there is a fear I can hit a long ball. I can do a lot of scary things, and I think that should work to my advantage, not my disadvantage," Rodriguez said. "I've just got to be patient, and when I get a good pitch to hit, don't miss it." 顯然當我站上打擊區投手有種恐懼這傢伙有長打力會做很多恐怖的事我認為這是我的優勢不是劣勢我只要有耐性當我有好球可打不要錯過了 Rodriguez believes he made progress in that regard against Tim Wakefield Monday night, when he worked a walk in two of three plate appearances against him. "The knuckleball slowed me down a little, which was what I needed," he said. A-Rod相信從星期一面對Tim Wakefield時的表現他有進步三次登板得到兩次保送他說"蝴蝶球讓我放慢這是我需要的" He was happy one walk led to a run. "Anytime I can be involved, you don't need to hit a home run or a double, you can walk, hit behind the runner, you can do all the little things," he said. "It's all going to add up for me at the end of the year." 他很高興保送讓他回來得分他說"任何時間我都有參與也不用一定要打支全壘打或二壘安打也可以保送也可以做各種小事這些也都是我可以做的並可持續一整年" -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.229.96.119
