05/01/2008 7:15 PM ET Yankees put Duncan in cleanup spot Girardi makes effort to break up lefties in lineup with A-Rod out 洋基把Duncan放第四棒 - 在A-Rod缺席時Girardi努力分開陣中的左打群 By Bryan Hoch / MLB.com http://0rz.tw/1744X NEW YORK -- Shelley Duncan didn't exactly do a double take when the Yankees posted a lineup card showing him as the cleanup hitter, but it was a reminder of just who the batting order was missing. 當洋基公布打線卡，上面顯示Duncan排在第四棒時，Duncan並沒有再次確認這樣的打線安排。 With Alex Rodriguez sidelined for at least two weeks with a Grade 2 strain of his right quadriceps, Duncan assumed duties batting No. 4 in the Yankees' lineup on Thursday against Tigers left-hander Nate Robertson. A-Rod因拉傷四頭肌必須缺席至少兩週。當週四洋基對上老虎隊左投Robertson時， Duncan被賦予第四打席的責任。 "I'm just trying to break up some of our lefties," manager Joe Girardi said. "Alex is a hard guy to replace. Shelley has hit left-handers in his career pretty well and Shelley played pretty well down at Triple-A. We're just trying to break it up so it's not so easy for them to bring in their lefties." 「我正試著把左打們分開。」教練Girardi說。「A-Rod很難取代，Duncan在生涯中對左投表現相當不錯，而且他在3A表現很好。我們正在把左打分開，因此當對手派左投對付我們時，事情不會那麼如他們所願。」 Duncan is 1-for-8 with three runs scored, a double and four walks in three games since being recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday, where he was hitting .309 with six home runs and 17 RBIs after being sent to the Minors on April 9. 自從週六從3A被拉上來，在三場比賽內，Duncan交出八打席一安打、跑回三分，並有一支二壘打和四個保送。從4/29被送回3A以來，他的打擊率是0.309、六支HR、 17分打點。 He may have electrified New York with an impressive power display upon his callup last season, bashing seven homers in 74 at-bats, but the 28-year-old said he had no illusions about doing his best A-Rod impression, taking his first career big league start in the cleanup spot. 上一季首次升上大聯盟時，他也許已用令人印象深刻的威力振奮紐約─在74打席內交出 7支HR，但是這個28歲的打者說他沒有幻想要在A-Rod的位置上努力，在第一場大聯盟先發就打第四棒。 "There is no one in the world who can replace Alex," Duncan said. "Growing up all through the Minors, I hit fourth where it always felt real comfortable for me there. It's pretty neat." 「這個世上沒人能取代A-Rod。」Duncan說，「我在小聯盟成長，在一個總是讓人舒服的地方打第四棒，我已經很熟練了。」 Having the defending American League MVP on the disabled list has created an unfortunate set of new challenges, Girardi said. Girardi說，美聯MVP進DL這個事情已經造成一連串歹運下的新挑戰。 "You do see how it's a little different trying to create your lineup when you don't have that guy you can pencil in the same spot every day," Girardi said. "That's the easiest thing for a manager." 「當失你去一個可以每天寫在打線名單上的人，你的確了解到創造一份自己的名單跟使用既有名單這件事並沒有太大不同。」Girardi說，「這對教練而言是最簡單的。」 Bryan Hoch is a reporter for MLB.com.
