Jeter came close to cleaning up http://newyork.yankees.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20080511&content_id=2680393&vkey=news_nyy&fext=.jsp&c_id=nyy DETROIT -- Think of it this way -- Derek Jeter has homered in 20 percent of his last five at-bats. 這麼想吧, 基特最近的五次打擊有20%是全壘打! Of course, that wasn't manager Joe Girardi's justification for writing Jeter's name in the cleanup spot for Sunday's washed-out game at Comerica Park, which would have been his second career appearance as the Yankees' No. 4 batter. But after Jeter went deep in the first inning on Saturday, ending a string of 184 homerless at-bats to begin the season, it was easy to make the connection. 當然這不是教頭吉拉迪把基特的名字填在cleanup spot的原因如果這場比賽沒有因下雨而延賽的話將是基特生涯第二次担任洋基的第四棒在基特週六第一局敲出全壘打結束開季來連續184次無全壘打打擊之後大家很容易會把兩件事聯想在一起 "He hits one home run and now he's a cleanup hitter?" Mike Mussina said. "他打了一支全壘打就可以當清壘的?" 穆帥說 "He couldn't justify the move until I hit a home run," Jeter said. "我打了全壘打之後他(吉拉迪)才有正當理由做這個調動" 基特說 In actuality, Girardi wanted to give Hideki Matsui a day off, and thought Jeter -- not exactly a prototypical power threat -- was a good option to dig in fourth against Tigers lefty Nate Robertson. Plus, Girardi had thoughts about Detroit's bullpen. 實際上,吉拉迪是想讓松井休息一天他覺得基特雖然不是典型的長打威脅排在第四棒對付老虎左投Nate Robertson卻是不錯的選擇而且老虎隊的牛棚也在吉拉迪的考量內 "It's a little different," Girardi said. "You hate being in situations where you stack your lefties and they have left-handed relievers. They have [Bobby] Seay and [Clay] Rapada, and it's just a way to change it up a little bit. It forces them to pitch a little bit different. He's not the conventional fourth hitter, but he's very good in RBI situations and he's always been good. He's going to hit wherever we put him." Jeter, batting .330 (36-for-109) with five doubles, one homer and 17 RBIs since rejoining the Yankees' lineup on April 14 after missing six games due to injury, tended to agree. 基特自從4月14日歸隊以來打擊率三成三 (109之36) 有5支二安 1支全壘打 17打點他覺得吉拉迪說的很有道理 "He's probably right," Jeter said. "I'm not going to do anything different ... besides try to hit home runs now." "他應該是對的" 基特說 "我不會改變什麼... 除了會開始努力去打壘打以外" Jeter's only big league tour of duty in the cleanup spot came on July 10, 1999, against the Mets at Shea Stadium, where Jeter went 0-for-4 with an intentional walk. The 9-8 Mets victory was memorable in New York circles not for Jeter's performance, but instead a two-run single in the bottom of the ninth inning by pinch-hitter Matt Franco, who briefly became a household name by victimizing closer Mariano Rivera. Sunday's rainout in Detroit made a return to the cleanup spot a moot point, and Girardi said not to expect Jeter back in the four-hole on Monday, when the Yankees open a four-game series at Tropicana Field. Just to deliver one last rib, Girardi presented Jeter with the lineup card as the Yankees were packing their bags on Sunday. 吉拉迪說他星期一不會把隊長排在第四棒為了再補最後一刀吉拉迪還把棒次卡送給隊長做紀念 Jeter scribbled a tongue-in-cheek message on the card, and he brought it right back to the manager's office. 基特在卡上畫了一些開玩笑的話之後又把卡放回吉拉迪的辦公室 "He knew it was going to rain," Jeter said. "他早知道會下雨" 隊長說 ---- 原來這一切都是為了讓大家開心啊吉拉迪真是佛心來著 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 68.39.96.214
