The Rifleman - Chuck Connors
http://www.riflemansrifle.com/picts/mike_dimuzio_7.jpg
Chuck Connors was an athlete his entire life. He played sandlot ball as a
youngster in Brooklyn and his big dream was playing for his home town team,
the Brooklyn Dodgers. He did eventually achieve this dream but his sports
career took a lot of turns. At the same time he was playing baseball, he
played basketball and he was one of the first players in the NBA.
Chuck Connors 一生都是個運動員。他年輕時在布魯克林打sandlot ball（很像棒球
的一種運動。），他的夢想就是能為家鄉球隊Brooklyn Dodgers打球。最終他達成了他的
夢想，但他的運動生涯可是轉了不少彎。在他打棒球的同時，他也從事籃球運動，並且是
NBA 史上最初的球員之一。
Chuck played basketball for two teams: the Rochester Royals and the Boston
Celtics. He was one of the original Celtics at the formation of the NBA.
Chuck is one of only of 12 athletes to play both professional baseball and
basketball and was the first basketball player to break a backstop while
playing for the Celtics in Boston.
Chuck 的籃球路為兩隻球隊效力過：羅徹斯特皇家隊及波士頓塞爾提克隊。他算是塞
爾提克的始祖隊員之一。他也是十二位打過職業棒球和籃球的球員之一，也是籃球史上第
一位衝出場外的球員，當時他正為波士頓效力。

Chuck's baseball career ran from 1940 - 1952 and he played for both minor and
major league teams, finishing up his career with the Pacific Coast League Los
Angeles Angels. Los Angeles was the perfect stepping stone to his next
career as an actor.
Chuck 的棒球生涯由1940一直到1952，他同時打大聯盟和小聯盟的比賽。最後在洛杉
磯天使隊結束生涯。洛杉磯也成了他下一職涯的起點，他成為了一位演員。
Even during his military service (1942-1945) Chuck played both basketball and
baseball on weekends.
即使在從軍的歲月裡，Chuck 依然在週末時打籃球和棒球。
During the winter of 1949 Chuck played baseball on the American Team in Cuba
and was chosen for the All Star team.
1949年冬天在古巴，Chuck 為一隻美國球隊效力，並入選了明星隊。
Chuck's baseball career wasn't without some injury. In 1940, Chuck broke a
finger and only played a few games because of it. In 1948, he was hit in the
mouth with a ball and needed 5 stitches. Then in 1949, he was hit in the
head, knocked unconscious and had to be carried off the field. In March
1952, he hurt his right hand and in April he tore muscles in his left
shoulder. In July of the same year, Chuck injured his right shoulder in a
play at 3rd base. When Chuck announced he would retire from baseball in
February 1953, he stated that his back muscles that were badly injured in
1952 hadn't completely healed.
Chuck 的棒球生涯並非沒有受傷過。1940時他斷了一隻手指。1948年他被球打中嘴巴
而縫了五針。1949，他被擊中了頭部而昏迷，並被抬出場外。1952，右手受傷後換左肩受
傷。接下來在七月又傷了右肩。在1953年二月，Chuck 宣佈退出棒壇時，他說他的後背肌
肉受傷後，整個1952年都沒有痊癒。
Those injuries didn't stop Chuck from loving baseball. While filming the
movie "Geronimo," a baseball game was organized to raise money for a
children's charity in Mexico. The Apaches played in their costumes as did
their opponents, the U.S. Cavalry. The ump might have been a little taken
aback at having Geronimo dispute a call. Chuck played hard even for a
charity game; he cut his knee open sliding into base and had to have stitches.
這些傷痛並沒有阻擋Chuck 喜愛棒球。演出電影Geronimo的同時，他也在墨西哥辦了
一場募款棒球賽。雙方分別裝扮阿帕契人及美國人上場。裁判還一度因爭執要把Geronimo
趕出場。Chuck 為這場比賽盡力演出，他甚至還另為滑壘而傷了膝蓋。
（譯：Geronimo是一部有關十九世紀阿帕契酋長Greonimo的電影。）

The Vermont Bennington Generals - 1941
Chuck remembered playing in Bennington as happy days for him.
He was in college and played for the Generals during the summer of 1941. The
players roomed with local families and were paid $150.00 a month.
Chuck 也記得在Bennington打球的快樂時光。念大學的他當時為將軍隊在暑假出賽，
當地的家庭會提供他們住宿，此外每月還有150元美金。

Chuck enjoyed sports and was an excellent golfer and organized charity golf
tournaments for 15 years to raise money for children's charities. He also
participated in many other tournaments as well.

翻到慈善高爾夫，不由得就「任何人只要有三百萬美金，都可以參加....」
