They were not only in first place in the highly competitive National League East, but were off to as good a start as they've ever had. 馬林魚不僅僅是暫居在競爭激烈的國聯東區第一,而且是他們有史以來開季最好的成績 At 19-14, the Marlins are tied with the achievements of the 2004 and 2005 Marlins, and a game better than the 1997 team that went on to win the World Series. 19勝14敗平了04和05年的成績,而且比1997年得到冠軍那一年有一場的勝差 And they don't seem awestruck about this unpredicted success. 他們似乎對於這種出乎意料的成績不感到意外 As second baseman Dan Uggla said, "We're not shocked, we're not surprised. It's about what we expected." 二壘手Dan Uggla說他們不感到驚訝,這是他們所預期的 It was mentioned to Uggla that most everybody had shrugged off the Marlins as a contender before the season ever began. Uggla提到幾乎所有人在球季開始前都對於他們是否足以成為一位競爭者感到懷疑 "I don't think any of the teams shrug us off," he said. "I think it's the media that shrugs us off. We don't really care about the media, so ..." 我不認為其他球隊會懷疑我們的實力,那只是媒體的看法,不過我們並不在意... His voice trailed off as he paused to finish a thought. Finally, he said, "Nobody's really worried what anybody thinks outside of this clubhouse." 沒有人會在意球場外任何人說的話 First baseman Mike Jacobs volunteered that the Marlins play with a more steely-eyed approach exactly because they seem to enter every season as a perennial underdog. 一壘手Mike Jacobs自願發表意見馬林魚之所以會受到那麼嚴厲的眼光是因為他們長期是處於劣勢的一方 "I guess you could say we play with a chip on our shoulder," he said. "But it's more so to show our ourselves, because we have been here three years now. It's time to show people and ourselves that we can win at this level. "我們在這裡已經三年了,事實後向別人證明我們是有在這個聯盟贏球的實力" "You can't use the old saying of, 'Oh, they're young' or 'It's early' or this, that and the other. We've been in the league for a while now. We know what we need to do, and so far we've been doing it." 你不能用年輕當作藉口,我們已經在大聯盟一段時間了,我們知道我們應該做甚麼, 目前為止,我們已經做到且持續當中 Asked to identify his team's most pleasant surprise, manager Fredi Gonzalez thought of Jorge Cantu's comeback story and Luis Gonzalez's stabilizing effect as a veteran with a winning pedigree, but eventually had to go with his starting pitching. 被問到最驚喜的事情,Fredi Gonzalez覺得是Cantu的復出以及Luis Gonzalez老將的穩定作用,不過最終原因還是先發投手 "The way our starting pitching has been able to go deep into games has been the most pleasant surprise," the manager said. He added that he's not saying his starting pitchers "are finished products," but he is savoring the emergence of such hurlers as Scott Olsen, Mark Hendrickson and, lately, Andrew Miller. "我們的先發持續在比賽中表現不錯",他補充他並不是說先發投手已經是完成品, 而是欣賞像是Scott Olsen, Mark Hendrickson and Andrew Miller這種投手的出現 "It's been nice to see that day in and day out," he said. He's aware that his starting pitchers have gone at least six innings in games 13 times thus far. 他知道這些投手到目前為止有十三場可以撐到至少六局 How would Gonzalez respond if somebody asserted that his team was playing over its head? "I'd probably just say nothing," he said, waving off the question. "We go play baseball. You've still got to hit the ball, catch the ball, throw the ball to win games." 如果有人宣稱馬林魚有點衝過頭了,Gonzalez會如何回答呢? 他也許會說我們是在比賽,我們必須贏球 Starter Ricky Nolasco said some people might label the Marlins wrongly, because they are considered among the low-budget teams. Starter Ricky Nolasco說有些人也許會因為他們團隊薪水低的原因而對他們貼上了錯誤標籤 "You got to play together," he said. "That's the thing about baseball -- it takes all 25 guys pretty much every day. Sometimes, with the salaries, there are superstars here and there, but a big thing about baseball is chemistry, and executing and playing the right way. I think we're just going out there trying to focus on what we have to do to win day by day. I think we've done a good job of not looking ahead." "棒球是團隊運動" "棒球需要25人的配合. 有時候隊上會有大明星,不過棒球最重要的是化學作用以及正確的指示. 我認為我們只是每天專注在如何贏球. 我覺得我們做得不錯" Ex-Marlin Craig Counsell, now with the Brewers, said it could be a telltale sign that the Marlins are a much-improved team because their pitching has looked quite good. 前馬林魚球員現在在釀酒人的Craig Counsell說馬林魚的表現是一個可以說他們的確是有很大的改進 "The one thing that's going to get you through the season is good pitching," he said, "and they've pitched very well. Against us, especially. They're playing well and we're 35 games into the season. That's a strong start for sure." "好的先發輪值可以讓你順利度過一個球季" "馬林魚的先發目前的確投得很好. 尤其是對上我們時,他們表現特別好." Outfielder Jeremy Hermida likes the fact that the Marlins right now have a nice blend between hitting and pitching. Their power numbers stack up favorably with most teams. 外野手Jeremy Hermida非常喜歡對上目前的打擊和投手的搭配. "But it's a little bit early to look at the standings," Hermida said. "We got a lot of games left and we know we've had our ups and downs. Just 'cause you start off hot doesn't mean we'll end up on top at the end." "但現在還言之過早" "我們還有很多比賽,而且而且我們知道我們曾經起伏不定" "目前亮麗的表現不代表球季後仍如此" ============================================================================== 大致翻一下其實我本身英文也不是說非常好有些地方設置不知道怎麼翻所以有錯誤或是語意不順之處請多包涵 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.228.41.12
