標題:A-Rod treated unfairly by 'SI' cover story
(September 23, 2006) - Alex Rodriguez is a great baseball player but he's
never been one of my favorite athletes. He might be a nice person off the
field, but I've never liked his demeanor or mannerisms on the field. That's
no big deal.
But some of his teammates feel the same way and went public. That is a big
deal.
A ROD 是個很棒的棒球員,但是他從來不是我喜歡的運動員。他也許是個好人,但是我
從不喜歡他的行為或是格調。不過這沒有啥大不了的~~
I never thought I'd feel sorry for A-Rod, but I do today. The slam-piece
directed at him in this week's Sports Illustrated cover story ("The Lonely
Yankee") was mean-spirited, ill-timed and probably will make a bad situation
worse.
A-Rod's defenders claim he isn't having a bad year. They cite his batting
statistics entering this weekend: .284, 34 HRs, 116 RBI. But if you've
watched all or most of the Yankees games this season, you know he could
easily have 150-plus RBI. He hasn't consistently produced in the clutch and
his defense has been shaky.
In short, he hasn't played like he deserves to be baseball's highest-paid
player.
我也從來沒想過我會替A ROD感到SORRY,但是今天我感覺到了。在SI 的封面故事
("那孤獨的洋基人")是心胸狹窄的,不合時宜的,可能會讓那不好的情況更加惡化
的一篇文章。
A ROD 的擁護者會替他說這並不是A ROD壞的一年。他們引用他的打擊成績
(到這星期為止的),.284打擊率,34HR. 116打點。但是假如你有看全部或是大多
數的洋基比賽(在這球季),你會知道他(A ROD)應該可以輕易的打下150分RBI
(imkevin觀點:應該很難吧,即使在洋基)。他沒有在關鍵時刻發揮,另外他的防守
也看起來很抖。
總歸起來,他表現的不像一個最高薪的球員。
Many fans, and apparently some teammates, hold A-Rod to a higher standard
than any other player. He's been under enormous pressure and hasn't handled
it well.
It isn't easy being a Yankee import and constantly compared with charismatic
captain Derek Jeter, who isn't as gifted as A-Rod but has been an
extraordinary performer in the clutch.
In fairness, A-Rod hasn't always been a poor postseason performer. In 26
playoff games before last year, he was a .330 hitter with 9 doubles, 6 HRs
and 16 RBI.
許多球迷,以及一些隊友,把 A ROD訂在一個更高的標準之上。 他已經在
那種巨大的壓力之下而且處裡的不是很好。
當洋基的看板人物以及要經常性的與『人氣王』以及
經常可以在關鍵時候發揮的JETER比較,這對 AROD來說不是一件容易的事情。
平心而言,A ROD 並不是總是在季後賽表現很差,在他的26場季後賽表現之中,
他也有著.330打擊率並有九支二壘安打,六支全壘打,以及十六分打點。
Unfortunately, Yankee fans care only about his postseason numbers as a
Yankee, and he was lousy in last season's playoffs: .133 (2-for-15) with 0
RBI in five games.
I don't recall a baseball player entering a postseason under such scrutiny
and facing so much pressure.
The best way to silence his detractors would be to have a huge October. All
things considered, I don't envision that happening.
不幸的,洋基迷只會在乎他在洋基的季後賽表現的,在去年的季後賽,
僅僅只有.133打擊率,0分打點,在五場季後賽中。
我不記得的有那個球員在季後賽的表現會像A ROD一樣會遭受到這樣詳細得檢視
以及面對如此巨大的壓力的。
讓那些貶低詆毀A ROD的人閉嘴的最好的方法,就是在十月來打個超棒成績,但是
在許多的因素考量之下(人不和,球迷噓,心理狀態需要調整,媒體炒....)
我不認為那會發生........

這篇文章的作者也不欣賞 A ROD,但是他還是可以站在比較客觀的立場去考量。
就事論事,提數據,他認為SI的那篇文章中 ,A ROD並不是受到公平對待的~
這種事情沒有定論,不過還是希望大家喜歡這篇文章~~有錯也請幫忙指正~謝謝
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
附帶一提,洋基每次這種鑽石打線一擺出來,對上新投手,
往往都是一整個窘,XD~結果也自己也苦哈哈了~~~~~
題外話~~~

做任何事情要小心注意~~~不可以太粗心啊!!!
