※ 引述《fyc616 (緣份讓你我相識)》之銘言： : WANG TIME COMING -- by adding change-up, Yanks ace right on target : By George A. King III : March 2, 2008 -- CLEARWATER, Fla. - His turbo sinker pushes speed guns into : the mid-90s and is as hard to get in the air as a bowling ball. The second : bullet in the arsenal is a biting slider that isn't in Joba Chamberlain's : class but still effective. 小王把sinker的速度推到90多英哩的中間，就像保齡球一樣難打。他的第二樣武器是尖銳的滑球，雖然還不到張伯倫的等級，但仍非常有效。 : Now, after consecutive 19-win seasons, Chien-Ming Wang is adding a seductive : change-up to the tool belt with the hope that hitters have to worry about a : third pitch. 現在，連續兩年贏得19勝後，小王加了一顆引人注意的變速球，希望能成為讓打者擔心的第三種球路。 : "Winning 19 games is all well and good but you have to change," pitching : coach Dave Eiland said of Wang's willingness to make the change-up an out : pitch that can be used eight to 10 percent of the time. 「贏得19勝當然很好，但一定得作出改變」，投手教練Dave Eiland說小王希望將變速球成為一個讓打者出局的球種，並在所有投球中占8-10%的比重。 : Wang learned the circle change in the minor leagues but basically has been a : two-pitch hurler. And since his signature sinking fastball is so filthy, Wang : has been able to get by. Yet, good hitting teams like the Red Sox and Indians : have spanked Wang recently. Who can ever forget the paddling the Indians gave : Wang in two ALDS games last year when the YankeesNew York Yankees ' ace went : 0-2 with a 19.06 ERA. In 52/3 innings he gave up 14 hits (three homers). 小王在小聯盟學到變化球，但他基本上是兩種球路的投手。而且因為他的招牌sinker實在太強了，他一直能靠這個過活。然而，打擊強的球隊，例如紅襪和印地安人，近來已經找出對付sinker的辦法。誰能忘記印地安人在美聯季後賽賞給洋基王牌的兩場敗投和 19.06的防禦率呢？在5又2/3局，小王被敲了14支安打(含3支全壘打)。 : "He puts it in the hitters' mind that instead of two pitches, now they go up : there and think he might throw another one," said catcher Jose MolinaJose : Molina , who caught Wang's two-inning effort yesterday at Bright House : Networks Field, where the Yankees topped the Phillies, 9-3. 小王把額外的球種放進打者的心中。現在打者站上打擊區，除了sinker跟滑球，他們會猜小王可能會丟別的。 : Wang says since his slider and fastball are hard, the change-up will help him : keep hitters off balance, even after it was that pitch that Seattle's Ben : Broussard broke up Wang's perfect-game bid in the eighth inning last May by : hitting a change-up for a homer. 小王說因為他的滑球和快速球都很硬，變速球將會幫助他擾亂打者─即使這顆球在去年五月讓他的完全比賽破功。 : "Today the change-up was good and the slider was working," said Wang, who : used the slider to strike out Pat Burrell looking. In two scoreless innings, : Wang allowed a hit and fanned one. 「現在，變速球練的不錯了，滑球則是很管用。」小王說，他用滑球三振了Pat Burrell。在兩局無失分的情況下，小王只讓打者擊出一支安打，三振一人。 : Phil Hughes, Ian Kennedy and Chamberlain are media darlings for their arrival : together in The Bronx, outgoing personalities and because none of them was : swapped for Johan Santana. Andy Pettitte has been asked about the Mitchell : Report, HGH and Clemens more than his curveball. At 39, Mike Mussina answers : questions about being able to help the Yankees. 休斯、甘迺迪、張伯倫因為一起來到Bronx而成為媒體寵兒，他們外向的個性和成為桑塔那交易案的籌碼都是原因。而派提特，眾人詢問他關於米契爾報告、生長激素，和克萊門茲，多過關心他的曲球。穆西納39歳了，他得證明自己還能對球隊作出貢獻。 : And Wang cruises through the "Groundhog Day"-like days of spring training : with a small smile for everyone. Even after losing an arbitration case in : which he filed for $4.6 million. Instead, he will make $4 million this year : to be Joe Girardi's ace. 在此時，小王緩緩地的度過土撥鼠節。即使輸了460萬美元的薪資仲裁，他仍以微笑面對春訓的每個人。相反的，新球季賺400萬美元的他，即將成為新教練Joe Giradi的王牌。 : "[AL East teams], you are going to see them four or five times so you have to : make adjustments because they will make adjustments on you," Girardi said. : While Girardi hasn't announced Wang as the Opening Day starter against the : Blue Jays, Wang will get the honor if he can avoid injury. He was in line : last year for that assignment until pulling a hamstring that shelved him for : the first three weeks of the season. Girardi說，「(美聯東區球隊)，每一隊我們都會對戰四到五次，因此我們的球員必須作出調整，因為對手也對你做出調整。」雖然Girardi尚未宣布王建民在開幕日擔任先發，但只要小王能避免受傷，他會拿到這份榮耀的。小王去年原本已經準備好承擔這個責任，卻因拉傷而缺席三週。 : "You can continue to develop the change-up and continue to locate better," : Girardi said. "There are a lot of different things you can do but he is : pretty polished." 「你可以持續發展變速球並且讓球的落點更好，有很多事情都可以作，但小王已經把自己磨得相當亮了。」 : Wang said he deleted the Cleveland nightmare (0-2; 19.06 ERA) and Girardi : hasn't recognized signs otherwise. 小王說他已經把克利夫蘭惡夢從記憶中刪除，Girardi尚未承認任何訊息。 : "I have not seen that; I don't think it did," Girardi said of Wang still : nursing a hangover. "He struggled a little bit; so did Cy Young last year, : C.C. Sabathia. It's going to happen." 「我還沒看到，我不認為已經過去了。」Girardi說小王仍然在照料後遺症。「他有點掙扎，但去年的賽揚獎得主Sabathia也一樣，這總是會發生的。」 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.231.232.218 ※ 編輯: shirlyfen 來自: 61.231.232.218 (03/02 23:54)
