※ 引述《WingKnight (金色紀元)》之銘言： : Through long rehab, Chien-Ming Wang longs to reward Nats’patience : By Rich Campbell The Washington Times : 5:44 p.m., Tuesday, June 28, 2011 : HAGERSTOWN, Md. — The front door of the cramped home clubhouse at : 81-year-old Municipal Stadium opens directly into the main parking lot, : where fans are free to wait for their heroes after Hagerstown Suns games. : On Monday night, they congregated minutes after the final out and waited for : one man. 在有著81年歷史，狹小的Municipal球場，前門就正對著大停車場，在那兒，球迷在Hagers- town Suns的比賽結束後，可以任意的等著他們心中的球員英雄現身。而在星期一的晚上，他們聚集好久直到比賽結束，等待著一個人。 : This was a pilgrimage of sorts for Ching Meng, a 40-year-old Taiwanese woman : from Rockville. She and her family drove 50 miles to get here, joining at : least two dozen other members of the Chien-Ming Wang D.C. Fan Club. People : from cities across the region, including Ashburn, Columbia and Leesburg, : organized the trip on the club’s Facebook page, hoping to finally see their : fellow countryman and favorite baseball player pitch a regular-season game. 對孟清(Ching Meng)這位從Rockville來的台灣婦人來說，這是一場朝聖之旅。她和她的家人開了50英哩的車程來到這，加入其他至少20來位王建民華盛頓粉絲團的成員，他們來自不同的城市，包括Ashburn、Columbia、Leesburg，這群從Facebook上組織的球迷們，希望最終能親眼看到他們國家最受歡迎的棒球員，投出一場正規比賽。 : Some carried red, white and blue Taiwanese flags. Others wore white and red : Washington Nationals jerseys and T-shirts with Wang’s name and No. 40 : on the back. Meng proudly wore her authentic Wang jersey. She had hoped to : meet him at the Nationals‘ FanFest in March but missed him. 有些人帶著紅、白、藍色組成的台灣國旗，其他人穿著40號帶有Wang字的國民隊球衣和T- shirt，Meng驕傲的穿著她的王建民球員版球衣，她原本想在三月國民隊的粉絲日見到他，但她錯過了。 : “This,” she said, “is a makeup for us.” "這些，就是我們最好的裝飾。" 她說 : The fans waiting for Wang on Monday, though, were at the back of a long : figurative line. The Nationals still are anticipating his arrival after : first signing him in February 2010. 這個球迷引頸期盼的星期一，比原本預定的時間晚了好久。國民隊在2010年2月簽下他後，直到現在都還在期待他的歸期。 : The club has since paid him $3 million essentially to rehabilitate his : surgically repaired right shoulder. The three innings he pitched for : Hagerstown, Washington’s Single-A affiliate, on Monday were his first in a : regular-season game in almost two years. 球隊已經付給他3百萬美金，而這段時間他主要都在右肩手術的復健中度過，在這次1A、3 局的投球內容中，是他近兩年來，首次主投的正規比賽。 : “I’m very, very happy because it’s been a long, long time,” Wang, 31, : said through a translator after the game. "我非常開心，因為實在等了好久。" 31歲的王建民在賽後透過翻譯說。 : There’s still a lot left to accomplish, though, before the Nationals get a : sufficient return on their investment. 當然，在國民隊期待他們的投資得到足夠的回報前，還有很長的一段路要走。 : Their recent surge in the standings brings to mind a best-case scenario. : Imagine Washington contending for a playoff spot during August. Suddenly, : a healthy, effective Wang joins the bullpen or starting rotation. He won 38 : games with the New York Yankees from 2006-07, so he has the potential — : on paper, at least — to make a positive impact. 以這支球隊目前上漲的戰績來說，似乎可以期待一些願景，試著想像到了八月，國民隊仍試著在季後賽的爭奪戰中脫穎而出。突然，健康的王建民加入了球隊的輪值或牛棚。他在06-07年為洋基贏了38勝，所以至少從過去的數據來看，他是有潛力為球隊帶來正面影響的。 : “I need more innings, more experience,” Wang said. “As long as my arm : feels good, I think I’ll have no problems. ” "我需要更多實戰經驗、以及更多的局數。" 王建民說 "只要我的手臂都感覺良好，我想一切會沒問題的。" : Doug Harris, the Nationals‘ director of player development, is a bit more : cautious in his optimism. He assumed his position in late 2009 shortly : before Wang signed and has closely followed his progress, or lack thereof. : He remembers how Wang was projected to return to game action in May 2010, : and then June and then July, but didn’t. Doug Harris，國民隊球員發展部門的總管，對王建民的樂觀還是謹慎了些，他曾經在2009 年，王建民被簽下後，假想過王在國民隊的位置，並且在這之後一直密切注意王建民復健的起起伏伏，他回憶起王建民在2010年五月試著返回球場，接著是六月、七月，但是都失敗了。 : Harris was encouraged by Wang’s 49-pitch outing Monday but acknowledged that : Wang needs repetition to establish consistency and earn the club’s confidence. : “The biggest thing that I see right now, even compared to earlier in the : year, he has much more strength in his delivery and his arm is working more : freely,” Harris said. “I thought he was really good in front with his arm : action. That’s what’s going to allow him to have that sink and add quality : to his secondary stuff.” Harris對王建民星期一的49球的投球內容表示欣慰，不過也承認王建民需要持續的比賽來建立他的持久度，這樣才能贏得球隊的信任。 "我現在看到最重要的事情就是，和去年比較起來，他的出手更有強度，對手臂的控制也愈來愈靈活。" Harris說，"他的投球動作相當不錯，這能讓他的伸卡下沉，並且讓他的第二球種更有威力。" : Wang’s velocity is a few miles per hour slower than what it used to be, but : the Nationals are downplaying the importance of that. He averaged in the : upper 80s Monday and topped out at 90 mph. 王建民的球速跟以往比起來，慢了幾英哩，不過國民隊輕描淡寫的表示不擔心。他當天的平均球速是接近90英哩，最快達到90。 : “He’s a sinkerball pitcher, so he doesn’t necessarily have to have the : velocity of another type of pitcher,” Harris said. : “His sinker would come in the zone like a strike and just sink out of it,” : Suns catcher David Freitas added. “His is a little different than some of : the guys on our team.” "他是一名深卡球投手，所以和其他類型的投手不同，他不需要有極快的球速" Harris說 "他的伸卡球投出後會看起來像顆好球，接著就往下沉，掉出好球帶" Suns隊的捕手David Freitas也說。 "他和其他我們球隊的投手有點不太一樣" : Wang’s exact road back to the big leagues is still unclear. The Nationals : will wait until he throws on the side this week before determining where and : when his next start will be. 王建民重返大聯盟的時間還是不確定的，國民隊會等到這個禮拜，他在場邊練投後，再來決定他下次在哪先發，以及何時先發。 : But some in the organization are convinced Wang’s path will in fact lead to : Washington. 不過很多球團的人都確信王建民的復健的腳步，最後能夠抵達華盛頓。 : “I wouldn’t say that the door [back to the majors] is closed by any : stretch,” said Suns pitching coach Chris Michalak, who also worked with Wang : in the fall. “He’s here for a reason — to some day help us out at the : big-league level.” "我想不管怎樣，他回到大聯盟的門都會一直敞開著。" Suns隊的投手教練說，他也和王建民在秋天一起共事過。"他來到這兒只有一個原因，就是未來要在大聯盟幫助我們升上去！" : Oh, how that would delight Meng and the others who waited more than an hour : for Wang to step out into the parking lot Monday night. 喔對了，當王建民星期一晚上走向停車場的時候，等了一個多小時的孟清，以及其他球迷是多麼的開心呀。 : Meng worked her way to the front of the pack, handed Wang a marker and turned : her back so he could sign his autograph on her jersey between his name and : number. She spun back around when he was finished and said, “Xiexie,” — : Mandarin for “thank you.” Wang nodded and kept on signing whatever the next : person put in front of him. 孟清奮力走到人群的前頭，遞給王建民一隻簽名筆，並且轉過身讓王建民可以在Wang字和 40號之間簽上他的名字。"謝謝" 王建民點點頭，繼續不停的簽著下一位走到他前頭的球迷。 : “I’m very excited!” Meng said moments later.“I’m going to call my parents : tonight in Taiwan.” "我超興奮的！" 孟清過了一會兒說。"我今晚要打電話給我在台灣的爸媽！" : http://ppt.cc/Xy6t 新手翻譯請多多指教 -- ▃▄▅▅▄▃ █ █ █ █▃█◣▅ Ｓｅｅ　ｔｈｅ　ＤＩＦＦＥＲＥＮＣＥ █▅█ █ ▃▃▄◣ █◤█◤ █▎◤▃▄◤ 台灣第一個高畫質無線數位頻道(HDTV) ▄▃▃█▃▄ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 24.193.126.190
