NEW YORK -- For all this talk of trouble in the Bronx, the Yankees are doing just fine in terms of fan appeal. 就迎合球迷需求來說，洋基做的不錯。 Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez are tops at their positions in the first tally of All-Star Game voting, released on Tuesday by Major League Baseball, and quite a few others remain within striking distance of a ticket to the game. And there's plenty of incentive for these Yankees, with the game being held at Yankee Stadium in its final season. 在明星賽的票選上，Jeter和A-ROD各自在游擊手以及三壘手保持領先。還有一些其他洋基選手，也仍然在競爭範圍之內。這對洋基來說是很大的鼓勵，特別是這場比賽在洋基老球場舉行，而且是老球場的最後一年。 The 79th Major League Baseball All-Star Game will be televised nationally by FOX, in Canada by Rogers Sportsnet and Sportsnet HD, and televised around the world by Major League Baseball International, with pregame ceremonies beginning at 8 p.m. ET on July 15. ESPN Radio will provide exclusive national radio coverage, while MLB.com will provide extensive online coverage. XM will provide satellite radio play-by-play coverage of the XM All-Star Futures Game. 第79屆的全明星賽在美國時間的7月15號晚上八點舉行，由FOX轉播。 (下面不重要就不翻) The Midsummer Classic will be the fourth held at Yankee Stadium and the eighth in New York City. The Yankees previously hosted the All-Star Game in 1939, 1960 and 1977; the Polo Grounds held the game in 1934 and 1942; Ebbets Field was the site in 1949; and Shea Stadium hosted the 1964 tilt. 這項夏天的盛大賽事，是第四次在洋基球場舉行，分別為1939，1960，1977年，1934和1942則是在Polo球場舉辦，Ebbets球場是在1949舉辦，還有Shea球場，是在1964年。這是第八次在紐約舉辦全明星賽了。 Fans can cast their votes for starters up to 25 times with the Monster 2008 All-Star Game Online Ballot at MLB.com and all 30 club sites until Wednesday, July 2 at 11:59 p.m. ET. Starting rosters will be announced during the 2008 All-Star Game Selection Show presented by Chevrolet on TBS on Sunday, July 6. Baseball fans around the world will then be able to select the final player on each team via the Monster 2008 All-Star Final Vote at MLB.com. (跟A-rod比較沒關係就不仔細翻了)大致上在說投票的截止日期還有7月6號會公佈先發選手名單。 And the voting doesn't end there. Fans will have the opportunity to participate in the official voting for the Ted Williams Most Valuable Player presented by Chevrolet at the All-Star Game via the Monster 2008 All-Star Game MVP vote at MLB.com. (大致上在說，球迷還可以票選全明星賽的MVP。) Jeter, an eight-time All-Star, currently leads Edgar Renteria of the Tigers and Michael Young of the Rangers in the online portion of the voting for shortstops. His strong start -- typical by his own standards, but impressive nonetheless -- was boosted during the beginning of May, when he batted .371 over the month's first 15 games. Jeter，八屆全明星選手，領先著所有游擊區的對手。他最近的狀況很好，五月的打擊率為3成71。 Yet the engine that drives this offense is Rodriguez, who recovered from a three-week stint on the disabled list to power the Yankees in mid-May. Rodriguez homered in each of his first two games back from injury to help spark his team into a winning streak. A-ROD是洋基隊攻擊的引擎發動機，他受傷休息三個禮拜之後，一回來，就打了兩支全壘打(加今天第三支)，幫助了洋基之前打出一波連勝。 "You're talking about quite possibly the best player who's ever going to go down and play the game," Jason Giambi said a few games after Rodriguez returned. "Getting him back, I think, definitely helps out." "你現在正在說的可能是現今大聯盟最好的選手，他很少有低潮的。"大吉說。 "他一回到先發，我覺得一定對我們有莫大的幫助。"大吉繼續談到A-rod回來的影響。 Giambi, too, is in the All-Star Game hunt, ranking third in voting among American League first basemen. Other Yankees high on the ballot include Hideki Matsui, who is second at designated hitter; Robinson Cano, who is second at second base; Jorge Posada, who ranks fourth at catcher; and the outfield trio of Bobby Abreu, Melky Cabrera and Johnny Damon, all of whom rank among the top 10 American League outfielders. 大吉也一樣，在一壘手的位置排名第三。其他像是松井，DH的位置排第二。Cano，二壘手排名第二。Posada，捕手排第四。Abreu，Cabrera，Damon，在外野手排前10。 Only the Red Sox have all nine of their starters also ranked so highly in the voting. 全聯盟除了洋基，也只有紅襪也在全明星賽的九個位置排名很高。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 163.25.118.139
