Notes: Damon copes with role reduction
With Cabrera in center and others DH'ing, at-bats fewer
By Bryan Hoch / MLB.com
NEW YORK -- Johnny Damon has never been shy about sharing a smile around the
Yankees clubhouse. Slowly, he's also learning to handle splitting playing
time.
大門從來不會害羞散發他的微笑
The stretch run has presented a new challenge for the 33-year-old Damon, who
is adjusting to life as a part-time outfielder and designated hitter. With
Melky Cabrera cementing center field and both Jason Giambi and Shelley Duncan
vying for DH at-bats, Damon is grinning and bearing through whatever at-bats
he can muster.
但他要面對新挑戰 中外野的守備位置被小卡布拿走 還要和大吉和怪力肯分享DH
"There was a day not so long ago when you'd show up to the ballpark and know
you're leading off and playing center field," Damon said. "Now, it's
different. You have to adjust for the team aspect of it. It'll all be better
as long as we make the playoffs."
他說 以前都知道要來打第一棒守中外野 現在每天都不一樣 這是為了球隊要進季後賽
Damon was in his familiar Opening Day slot Friday, playing center field and
leading off. More and more, that has become a guest appearance.
星期五他又回到熟悉的位置 但這樣的機會越來越少
Yankees manager Joe Torre said he rested Cabrera because of Damon's strong
career numbers against Tigers left-hander Nate Robertson -- Damon entered
play hitting .471 (8-for-17) against Robertson, with a double, triple and
five RBIs.
老托說讓小卡布休息是因為大門打Robertson打得好
Torre said that Damon has handled the reduction with aplomb. In Thursday's
game, with two runners on base and the Yankees looking to claw back against
Justin Verlander, Torre swapped the left fielder Damon out for Duncan as a
pinch-hitter.
老托說大門對現在的情況處理得很好
"He went in and changed shirts, came back out and became a cheerleader,"
Torre said.
老托說 必要的時候 他就進去換衣服變成啦啦隊
Yet Damon, who has two more years under contract with New York, realizes that
Cabrera is the Yankees' future in center field. After a slow start, the
23-year-old switch-hitter has caught fire, hitting .337 with six homers and
38 RBIs since May 30.
大門在洋基的合約還有兩年 他也認知到小卡布是洋基未來的中外野手
"It's definitely something that I'll be thinking about," Damon said. "They
have a number of things to address during the offseason. We'll just have to
wait and see. I think they can pretty much pencil Melky in as the everyday
center fielder for a number of years."
大門說 我會想 但現在要想的是季後賽 未來小卡布會是先發外野手
Fill-in Phillips? While Damon adjusts to his new role, first baseman Andy
Phillips has also seen a shift in playing time recently.
正當大門在調整他的角色 飛利浦最近上場時間增加
Because the bench is stronger and several players are contributing
significantly, including first basemen Duncan and Giambi, Phillips
understands the change and said he is content with helping in any way he can.
因為板凳深度增強 有大吉還有怪力肯
"It's not different," Phillips said. "Once you see the lineup, when you're
not in there at the beginning, you have to start trying to follow the game
along and get yourself prepared for an opportunity of you getting in there.
That's the only difference. Obviously, when you're playing, you know you're
getting ready from the first pitch on, and when you're coming off the bench,
you just have to think along with the game and when you might be used."
飛利浦說 看到打線表 如果不在上面 就要為代打準備
現在有先發 就只要想著比賽
Mo rest: The Yankees planned to play Friday without the services of closer
Mariano Rivera, who is being offered a small oasis of rest as he handles a
rocky patch to his season.
禮拜五不用Mo
Rivera last appeared Wednesday against the Orioles, when he allowed three
runs in the 10th inning -- including a two-run homer to Aubrey Huff -- and
suffered the loss. In his previous appearance Monday, Rivera didn't convert
his first save in 19 opportunities but still logged a win.
Mo星期三上場被轟 星期一上場沒有救援成功(這是他最近19次的第一次)
Torre said that the intent is to keep Rivera out of action, but as always,
game situations have a way of changing the blueprint. In Spring Training,
Torre said he was steadfastly against Rivera pitching more than one inning, a
rule the manager has since cracked numerous times.
老托雖然這樣講 但還是看比賽狀況 春訓時他說今年只用Mo一局 但還是黃牛好幾次
"Again, we don't know if [the rest is] going to make a difference, but this
is the way we're approaching it," Torre said. "If something happens and all
of the sudden he's pitching, [then] he's pitching. This is our plan right
now. ... I think it would have to be really a situation where we had no
choice."
老托 這是原則啦 如果看到他投球就投啦 這是我們目前的計畫 如果真的沒有選擇的話
Farns' worth: Right-handed reliever Kyle Farnsworth has quietly pieced
together three good outings in a row, working his way back into the
late-inning relief mix after requesting his use in more situations.
放肆火正慢慢恢復 目前已經連三局有不錯表現
Farnsworth pitched a scoreless sixth inning around a walk Thursday and had
fired two perfect innings in his previous pair of appearances, striking out a
batter in each. Torre said that he was most excited about Farnsworth's pitch
location, which was "electric down" in all three appearances.
星期四 投第六局沒失分送出一次保送 前兩次完美表現 各送出三振
老托對放肆火投球的位置感到興奮
"He seems to be more comfortable coming into the game, and doesn't seem to be
muscling the ball as much," Torre said.
老托說 他似乎比較舒服
Remembering Scooter: The family of Hall of Fame shortstop and longtime
broadcaster Phil Rizzuto, who passed away Monday at 89, has requested
donations to be made in lieu of flowers to: St. Joseph's School for the
Blind, 761 Summit Ave., Jersey City, N.J., 07307.
紀念洋基名人堂游擊手以及播報員Phil Rizzuto
Rizzuto is expected to have a private wake and funeral this week near his
longtime Hillside, N.J., home.
Bombers bits: Two U.S. Navy F-18s will fly over Yankee Stadium on Saturday as
the Yankees celebrate Military Appreciation Day. The U.S. Army Golden Knights
will also parachute jump into Yankee Stadium. ... The Yankees have 32 home
sellouts in 2007 and are averaging a Major League-best 52,355 fans per game.
星期六比賽有兩架F-18飛機會飛過慶祝Military Appreciation Day
Coming up: The Yankees play the third game of their four-game series with the
Tigers on Saturday, sending right-hander Roger Clemens (4-5, 4.00 ERA) to the
mound opposite right-hander Chad Durbin (7-5, 4.68 ERA). First pitch is
scheduled for 3:55 p.m. ET on FOX.
接下來 對老虎四連戰第三場 老克先發 對右投手Chad Durbin
3:55開始 美國狐狸電視台有播 台灣YESPN沒播...民視有播
