[譯文] Tigers clutch, A-Rod not, as Yankees …
剛剛出爐的新聞,翻譯相關A ROD的部分,加減看囉~~~~~
標題:Tigers clutch, A-Rod not, as Yankees lose
NEW YORK - Justin Verlander and Detroit’s bullpen held down the New York
Yankees’ mighty offense, bringing just enough 100 mph heat to send the
Tigers home with a split.
Curtis Granderson hit a go-ahead triple off Mike Mussina in the seventh
inning to cap a comeback from a two-run deficit, and the Tigers beat the
Yankees 4-3 Thursday to even their best-of-five AL playoff series at one game
apiece.
“I hope in my heart everybody realizes we are a playoff team,” Tigers
manager Jim Leyland said. “I’m not sure everybody believed that.”
Verlander and Detroit 的牛棚一起壓制了洋基的打擊,並帶著1-1的成績到老虎家
繼續的打系列賽。
Granderson在七局的時候,從老穆手中敲出那一支領先的三壘打,使得老虎也
以四比三擊敗了洋基 追平了系列賽的成績~~~
老虎教頭Jim Leyland 說:在我心中我希望大家知道我們是一支季後賽的隊伍,
我不知道是不是每個人都這樣想的~
Alex Rodriguez had another tough day at the plate, going 0-for-4 with three
strikeouts, including one that ended the first with the bases loaded.
A-Rod, booed loudly after his final two at-bats, hasn’t driven in a run in
his last 10 postseason games and is 5-for-40 (.125) in his last 11. He’s
1-for-8 with four strikeouts in this series.
After the threat of rain caused a postponement Wednesday night, the skies
were sunny for the rare postseason day game at Yankee Stadium. But before a
somewhat stunned crowd of 56,252, the wild-card Tigers ended a six-game
losing streak that stretched to the final week of the regular season.
A ROD 又有著艱難的一天,因為是 0 for 4的成績,還領了三張老K,包括
留下一個滿壘的殘壘。
A ROD,又被洋基FANS報以噓聲在他最後兩次打擊的時候,他在他最近十場季後賽中
沒有任何打點,而且只有 .125的打擊率~~ 他在這個系列賽 八打數一安打,
還加了4K..........
在大雨過後的星期三晚上,今天中午是一個陽光普照的日子~~球場擠滿了觀眾
,但也讓老虎結束了由季末以來的六連敗囉!!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~譯者 imkevin~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
這篇文章提到 A ROD的部分就在這邊結束了~之後的文章我看了一下,
大概是在說今天先發的 Verlander很不錯,Zumaya的火焰球, DAMON的三分彈
Jones的救援成功,Mussina的大曲球依然犀利,但是也悲情,其中
Verlander的年齡和季後賽資歷都被拿來討論~~
不過依照這篇文章的排版順序加上標題,又是媒體的手法囉~
A ROD的窘還是被拿出來當標題~而且排版還是在最前面~~~~
比Verlander還更前面~~這................
還好啦~反正A ROD一定要有超強的心臟~~才是像A ROD的樣子~~
加油吧~ A ROD
順便提供一下剩下的文章給大家欣賞,我就沒有翻譯了~
Verlander, his pitches reaching triple-digits on the radar gun, allowed his
only runs on Johnny Damon’s fourth-inning homer, which put New York ahead
3-1.
“Verlander did one whale of a job,” Yankees manager Joe Torre said.
Jamie Walker, Joel Zumaya and Todd Jones finished with one-hit relief.
Zumaya topped out at 102 mph, according to the center-field scoreboard.
Walker got the win, relieving Verlander in the sixth with a man on and a 1-1
count on Robinson Cano and inducing an inning-ending double play.
Leyland didn’t hesitate to take out Verlander in the middle of an at-bat.
“I just didn’t like the fastball before that. It was 92,” Leyland said. “
I said, ’That’s it. I’m going to make my move now.”’
Said Verlander: “He’s a great skip. When he comes out to take me out of a
ballgame, I never second-guess him.”
Jones pitched the ninth for the save, giving up a leadoff single to Hideki
Matsui. But Jones, a soft tosser when compared to the Tigers’ other hard
throwers, struck out Jorge Posada, retired Cano on a soft fly and got Damon
to fly out.
New York, an overwhelming favorite with All-Stars at every position, won
Tuesday’s opener 8-4 and had plenty of chances early in this one. But the
Yankees struck out nine times and went 1-for-8 with men in scoring position.
When the series resumes in Detroit on Friday night, Randy Johnson (17-11)
will test his balky back for New York, opposed by former-Yankee Kenny Rogers
(17-8). Because of the rainout, the teams lost their travel day.
Damon’s three-run homer into the right-field upper deck erased an early
Detroit lead created by Marcus Thames’ second-inning RBI single. But the
Tigers tied it at 3 on Granderson’s fifth-inning sacrifice fly and Carlos
Guillen’s sixth-inning homer into the right-field lower deck.
Thames singled leading off the seventh for his third hit of the game, took
second on Posada’s passed ball and went to third when No. 9 hitter Brandon
Inge sacrificed.
New York moved the infield in and Granderson fell behind 0-2 and fouled off
two more pitches before lining the ball to the wall in left-center. With the
infield still in, Placido Polanco lined to Rodriguez, who made a dive to the
third-base bag and nearly doubled up Polanco. Sean Casey then flied out.
“We never give up. That’s the main thing,” said Thames, a former Yankees
draft pick.
Verlander, a 23-year-old rookie who went 17-9 during the regular season, kept
getting in and out of trouble early. New York loaded the bases in the first
on Damon’s single and a pair of walks. But, after a mound visit from
pitching coach Chuck Hernandez, Verlander got Rodriguez to miss a 99 mph
fastball and foul off a 100 mph fastball before freezing him with an offspeed
pitch for a third strike.
New York got its first two runners on in the second but failed to score, and
Gary Sheffield followed Bobby Abreu’s leadoff walk in the third by grounding
into a double play.
Then in the fourth, Matsui singled and Posada walked after falling behind
0-2. One out later, Damon turned on a fastball and sent it into the second
row of the upper deck. After circling the bases and going to the dugout, he
emerged for a curtain call, waving his helmet to the crowd.
Derek Jeter followed with a double, but Verlander rebounded to retire his
next five batters before Posada’s one-out single in the sixth brought up
Cano.
Verlander allowed seven hits and four walks in 5 1-3 innings with five
strikeouts. While he was making his first postseason start, Mussina made his
21st and dropped to 7-8.
Mussina’s big curveball was sharp, but he made just enough mistakes to lose.
Craig Monroe doubled just fair down the left-field line in the second and
Thames singled to center on the next pitch. Thames doubled to left leading
off the fifth, advanced on a wild pitch and scored on Granderson’s fly to
short center, easily beating Damon’s weak throw. Guillen’s homer was his
second in postseason play.
Notes: Tigers Hall of Famer Al Kaline is scheduled to throw out
the ceremonial first pitch before Game 3, the first postseason game in
Detroit in 19 years.
