Guess what? It's almost time for the All-Star Game! In preparation, we're taki
ng a look back into All-Star Game history and showcasing some epic and memorab
le plays from Midsummer Classics of yore. Check back each day from now until J
uly 12 for more This Day in All-Star Game History.
(從今天起到美國時間7/12為止,將回顧明星賽的歷史及在過往仲夏棒球夜中令人難忘的
攻防)
In 1933, Arch Ward, then the sports editor of the Chicago Tribune, hatched a p
lan. The Windy City was playing host to the 1933 World's Fair -- titled "A Cen
tury of Progress" -- and Ward thought it would be the perfect opportunity to o
rganize a celebration of baseball to show off the game to visitors from across
the globe.
(1933年,芝加哥論壇報的編輯Arch Ward構想出一個計劃--在風城芝加哥聚辦名為“進
步的世紀”的世界級大秀,他認為可以形成一個吸引全世界遊客造訪的棒球慶典)
Eventually, after negotiating with the owners of the American and National Lea
gue clubs, the plan was shared with the world. In its May 19 article announcin
g the game, the New York Times referred to the first All-Star Game as "the bas
eball fans' dream," and went on to explain how the game, pitting the elite tal
ents of the American and National League against each other at Chicago's Comis
key Park, would work.
(在與美聯及國聯各球團交涉之後,於5/19的報章上宣佈這個被紐約時報稱呼為“棒球迷
之夢”的史上首場明星賽,並且也解釋了這場由國聯及美聯的精英進行對抗的比賽將如何
進行)
"The fans of the country will select the teams by vote to help settle argument
s over the relative merits of the players in the two leagues for the first tim
e in the history of the game."
(在兩個聯盟裡的球員,將以守備位置為單位,由美國球迷親手在兩個聯盟各個位置中進
行票選)
That's right -- the very first All-Star Game rosters were decided by the fans-
- and they did a fantastic job. The NL roster included Hall of Famers Frankie,
Frisch, Chuck Klein, Chick Hafey, Bill Terry, Paul Waner, Pie Traynor, Carl Hu
bbell and Gabby Hartnett, and was managed by John McGraw, who came out of ret
irement to skipper the exhibition squad. Meanwhile, the AL's formidable lineup
, managed by Connie Mack, included the likes of Lou Gehrig, Al Simmons, Lefty
Gomez, Lefty Grove and some guy named Babe Ruth.

When the day finally came, July 6, the contest was every bit as dramatic as ad
vertised. And, in the bottom of the third inning, the Bambino came to the plat
e in front of 49,000 fans hoping to see Ruth do his thing against Cardinals pi
tcher Bill Hallahan. Well, Ruth did his thing, alright:
(到了7/6當天,球賽進行的有如當初宣傳時所呈現的一樣夢幻。三局下,貝比魯斯上場
打擊,投手是紅雀隊的Bill Hallhan。貝比魯斯把球打了出去)
And with that swing, Ruth hit the first home run in All-Star Game history.
[炸裂]貝比魯斯,MLB明星賽史上首轟
[炸裂]貝比魯斯…OP幫刪,QQ
The Times recapped it fittingly, saying, "The National League is still trying
to catch up with Babe Ruth, but apparently with no more success than in recent
world's series conflicts." Ouch. And, unsurprisingly, the AL won, 4-2.
But Ruth's homer isn't the only amazing play that happened on this day in All-
Star Game history.
Lynn shows the danger of intentionally walking an All-Star
(Times雜誌做了個很貼切的描述:國聯想追上貝比魯斯,但很明顯在近代世界棒球中不
會再成功了。最終也不意外的由美聯以4-2拿下勝利…當然貝比魯斯的全壘打並不是唯一
令人驚奇的攻防,Lynn也展現出對全明星投故意四壞的危險性)
In the 1983 Midsummer Classic, again held in Comiskey Park to honor the 50th a
nniversary of the first All-Star Game, the Harvey Kuenn-led American League ro
uted the National League, 13-3. How they got there, though, was nothing short
of dramatic.
(1983年的仲夏棒球夜,為了向1933年致敬,所以回到Comiskey Park進行,雖然最終美
聯13-3擊敗國聯,但經典可一點都沒少)
After NL starter and Reds right-hander Mario Soto allowed just two unearned ru
ns through two innings, Giants pitcher Atlee Hammaker came out to the mound to
start the bottom of the third inning. His outing was ... not so good. In his
first battle, against Red Sox left fielder Jim Rice, Hammaker gave up a home r
un out to deep left field. He followed that up with a triple to the Royals' Ge
orge Brett, and things spiraled from there.
(紅人先發右投Mario Soto兩局先發只丟了兩分非責失,而接手的巨人Hammaker一上場就
挨轟,George Brett再補刀跑了個三壘安打,事情在此失控了)
After giving up three more runs -- while recording only two more outs -- Hamma
ker found himself with runners at second and third and with a choice to make:
Either pitch to Robin Yount, the reigning AL MVP, or intentionally walk Yount
to face a 30-year-old Fred Lynn. Hammaker and his team decided to give Yount t
he base -- but when Lynn came to the plate, he did this:
(再多丟三分之後…兩出局,二三壘有人,Hammaker故意四壞Yount來面對Fred Lynn,但
當Lynn上場後,他完成了一件事情…)
