09/15/2007 4:15 AM ET Beckett out to prove Cy superiority By Alex McPhillips / MLB.com http://tinyurl.com/34lgzw Take it from manager Joe Torre, a famously loyal booster of his Yankees: Chien-Ming Wang is no clear favorite for the American League Cy Young Award. 根據揪托瑞這個有名的王葛格支持者，王建民是毫無疑問地有機會獲得賽揚獎。 "[Josh] Beckett has had a marvelous year," Torre said. "He's been healthy, he's been throwing the ball hard. His stuff is terrific. [Beckett and Wang] don't measure up, stuff-wise, with each other. They're so different; they're different pitchers. Wang pitches more to contact." 「北極特快車今年表現的非常棒，」托瑞說「他一直保持健康，投球也相當的有威力，他的stuff非常好。他們倆誰也不輸誰，他們很不一樣，他們是不同類型的投手。王投的球比較有接觸(?)。」 "But," Torre added, "I think it's going to be interesting to see how people think. You can't fault who votes for either one of them." 「但是，」托瑞附帶「我認為觀察大家如何看待他們倆將會相當有趣，你不能誤導投票的人。」 Game 2 of this weekend's Yankees-Red Sox series, on Saturday at 3:55 p.m. ET at Fenway Park, will give voters plenty to think about. 週末的基襪系列第二戰將會讓評審們好好去想。 There are other candidates for the AL Cy Young Award: Kelvim Escobar and John Lackey of the Angels, C.C. Sabathia and Fausto Carmona of the Indians, and Justin Verlander of the Tigers. Only two -- Wang and Beckett, aces for the contending Red Sox and Yankees -- have won 18 games. 其他美聯的賽揚獎候選人還有天使隊的 Escobar 和 Lackey，印地安人的Sabathia 和 Carmona，老虎的Verlander，只有基襪的王牌北極和王得到18勝。 On Saturday, each will try for his 19th win at the expense of the other. 本週六他們將挑戰第19勝，而且必有一方失敗。 There will be added drama, after New York torched Boston's bullpen for six runs in a game that nearly became the longest nine-inning affair in baseball history, Friday's crushing 8-7 loss. 在系列賽的第一戦洋基痛宰了紅襪的牛棚後，這場比賽將更有可看性，紅襪在星期五以8 比7被逆轉，那簡直是棒球史上最長的第九局。 "But, you know," said Red Sox third baseman Mike Lowell, "when you're in a situation where you lose a tough one, you'd rather have your big dog throwing the next day. That's a good feeling." 「但是阿，」紅襪三壘手Lowell說，「當你處在剛被痛宰完的情況時，隔天有個大支老要登板，這還滿有fu的。」 Pitching matchup 投手對戰組合北極vs王 BOS: RHP Josh Beckett (18-6, 3.27 ERA) No team has given Beckett more fits this year than the Yankees, who have tagged the Red Sox ace for 30 hits in 19 2/3 innings. That adds up to a .353 opponents' batting average, better against Beckett than any team that has faced him more than once. In his last start against New York, Beckett allowed 13 hits in 6 2/3 innings but yielded just four runs. 洋基是本季打北極最順手的球隊，在紅襪王牌19.2局的投球中擊出30支安打，對戰打擊率高達3成53，上一場他對上洋基在6.2局投球中被打出13安只失掉4分。 NYY: RHP Chien-Ming Wang (18-6, 3.69 ERA) Over 4 1/2 steady months, Wang has built his candidacy on pitching his lethal sinker "to contact" -- in other words, forgoing strikeouts for ground-ball outs. The formula has worked against the Red Sox, who have reached base 36 times against Wang in 25 innings but been unable to work better than a 3.23 ERA against him. It might not be flashy enough to hold the attention of Cy Young voters, but it gets the job done. "Wang's not going to have the strikeouts," Torre said. "It doesn't mean he can't get people out." 過去4個半月穩定的投球，王用致命的伸卡球投出了他賽揚獎的候選資格，用滾地球製造出局而不求三振，這種模式對上紅襪相當有用，在王25局對上紅襪的投球中，有36個上壘但王的防禦率僅僅只有3.23，這可能還不夠吸引賽揚獎的評審們，但確實很管用。「王不強求三振，」托瑞說，「這並不代表他沒辦法讓打者出局。」 --------------------- 粗略翻譯錯誤煩請指正XD -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.134.224.178
