Yankees take it to Royals in blowout Four homers back Mussina 16th win; Bombers five back of Sox http://0rz.tw/974Dc NEW YORK -- Fighting to keep their playoff dreams alive, the Yankees came out swinging on Sunday. Jason Giambi connected for a grand slam and Alex Rodriguez hit a three-run homer to lead a 15-6 pounding of the Royals at Yankee Stadium. 奮鬥使季後賽的夢想仍保有生機---星期天的洋基強棒出擊。 Giambi的滿貫砲A-Rod的三分彈帶領洋基以15比6擊敗皇家隊。 Cody Ransom belted a two-run homer in his first Yankees plate appearance, and Xavier Nady tacked on a solo homer for New York, which took two of three games in the short homestand against Kansas City. Ransom在洋基球場的首次打擊就擊出了兩分全壘打和Nady陽春全壘打使得洋基在短暫的主場比賽中取得兩勝一敗。 It was the Yankees' first series victory since July 27 at Boston, and with their bags packed for a six-day trip to Toronto and Baltimore, they need it to create some momentum for the road. 這是從7月27和Boston比賽以來的首次系列賽勝利，接著他們將有六場和藍鳥及金鶯的客場之旅，他們需要為此增加些動力。 "We have our backs against the wall and every game is very important," Rodriguez said. "You've got to take it like it's the last week in September." A-Rod說：「我們已經沒有退路了，每一場比賽都很重要，我們必須把它當作9月的最後一週比賽來打。」 With offensive support in short supply of late, the Yankees generously cushioned starter Mike Mussina in coasting to his 16th victory of the season. New York rapped 17 hits and scored its most first-inning runs of the season in a six-run frame against Kansas City right-hander Brian Bannister. 在隊友強烈的攻勢下，Mussina贏得本季的第16勝。在洋基的蠶食鯨吞下，皇家隊的先發右投Brian Bannister.在首局即被重擊。 "It's important, because we're going to need it," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "We're going to need it down the stretch. We have 38 games to go, and we're going to need to score well, pitch well and play great defense." 總教練Girardi說：「這很重要,我們非常需要!我們需要持續下去。我們還有38場比賽，我們必須有效得分、投得好、守得好。」 New York sent 10 men to the plate in the first against Bannister, highlighted by Rodriguez's 546th career home run, a three-run shot that bounced off a concrete walkway in Monument Park. Nady added his 20th long ball of the season, and seventh since joining the Yankees in July, a solo shot taken the other way off the right-field foul pole. 洋基在首局即有10人次上場打擊，A-Rod的546號全壘打直往Monument Park飛去， Nady本季第20支（加入洋基後第七支）則往右外野標杆飛去。 The barrage continued in the second inning, when Bannister was lifted after six batters, unable to record an out. Giambi belted a grand slam into a sea of raucous Bleacher Creatures, his second grand slam of the season and the 14th of his career, to put the Yankees into double digits. 猛烈的攻勢在第二局持續爆發，Giambi擊出本季第2支生涯第14支的滿貫砲。 "That's how you blow games open, when you get the big hits like we did," Girardi said. "We got a three-run homer, a grand slam, a solo shot. Those are huge for your club, and it's a big lift." Girardi說：「三分砲、大滿貫、陽春砲，這對我們非常重要，大大提升我們的士氣。」 "You're not going to see that too often, but everyone contributed and everyone had good at-bats," added Derek Jeter, who tied a season high with four hits. "We made him throw a lot of pitches, and we were getting some timely hits." Jeter(這場比賽擊出四支安打，平本季最高紀錄)說：「這種情況不常見，但每個人都有貢獻，每個人在打擊上都有表現。我們消耗投手許多球數，並適時打出安打。」 The Yankees have been abysmal of late with runners in scoring position, and with their playoff chances hanging tenuously, Rodriguez said that the heart of the lineup would need to lead the production. "If we don't, we're not going to win," said Rodriguez, who finished 3-for-3 with five RBIs. "That's what it comes down to. [Nos.] 3, 4, 5 in the lineup have to come up big. We haven't lately, but we did today." 洋基在得點圈上有跑者時，遭受巨大的麻煩。在進入季後賽僅存的微小機會中， A-Rod說：「中心打者必須增加得分的效率，如果不這麼做，我們將不會贏。最近，這點我們做得不好，但今天我們做到了!。」A-Rod今天3-for-3有5分打點。 Bannister was charged with 10 runs on 10 hits, raising his ERA from 5.36 to 5.96. Working with the large advantage, Mussina spun six innings, overcoming a shaky first in which he allowed a two-run double to Billy Butler and a sacrifice fly. Bannister被擊出10支安打責失10分，防禦率由5.36升至5.96。Mussina主投6局，渡過危機的首局，該局被打了兩分打點的二壘安打及一支高飛犧牲打。 Down, 3-0, walking to the dugout, it was 10-3 as he returned for the top of the third inning. When Esteban German's line drive nicked Mussina near his lower back to put runners at the corners in the second, it was the last hit the right-hander would give up on the path to a breezy victory. 首局投完以三分落後下場，在三局開始時則以10比3回場上投球。Mussina在第二局被Esteban German被打出安打後，直到退場皆有效壓制對手。 "I don't know how many times I want to try with the motivation plan of giving up [runs] so our guys get going," Mussina said. "But today it worked again. We've come back and swung the bats real well. I don't want to try it every game, but today it worked." Mussina說：「在先丟分的狀況，你會希望隊友幫你把分數打回來，今天就打得很好。你不會希望每場比賽都是這樣(先失分)，但今天是如此的情形。」 Mussina allowed three runs on six hits, while walking none and striking out five. The victory was the 266th of his career, tying Hall of Famers Bob Feller and Eppa Rixey for 34th place on Major League Baseball's all-time list, though Mussina placed the credit solely with his support. Mussina這場比賽被打了六支安打失三分，沒有保送投出5次三振。這是他生涯第 266場勝利和名人堂的Bob Feller及Eppa Rixey並列All-Time第34。 "Today was about offense," Mussina said. "Today the guys went up there and swung the bats and worked for a pitch they could hit. When they got a chance, they put a barrel on it and hit it hard. We've had our struggles lately, and today we kind of all put it together." Mussina說：「今天應歸功於打擊，他們打得很好，每當有機會時都能適時掌握。最近我們在得分上陷入低潮，但今天確確實實的掌握了。」 In what Girardi called a "huge moment," Ransom received a seventh-inning curtain call after homering off Jeff Fulchino in his first Yankees plate appearance. The 32-year-old pinch-hit for Giambi and became the 11th player since 1961 to homer in his first at-bat as a Yankee, and the first since Wilson Betemit did it last Aug. 2. Ransom在擊出他在洋基的首打席全壘打後，獲得全場洋基迷的curtain call。他是洋基自1961年以來第11位首次登場打擊就擊出全壘打的打者。上一位是在去年8月2日擊出全壘打的Wilson Betemit。 "They had to push me out," Ransom said. "Honestly, the stadium was loud, and I couldn't hear. I didn't realize until I hit second base, and then I looked up." Ransom說：「隊友們推我出去接受curtain call。球場非常的吵，我聽不到球迷的要求。我不知道我打了支全壘打直到我到了二壘。」 With the game's outcome no longer in question, Billy Traber allowed one run in two innings of relief and Chris Britton served up a two-run homer to Ross Gload in the ninth. 在無關勝負之下，Billy Traber在後兩局的投球下失一分，Chris Britton則在 9上被擊出兩分打點全壘打。 The Yankees moved within five games of the Red Sox for the American League Wild Card, also trailing the Twins and White Sox in their most likely avenue for postseason play. They enjoy an off-day on Monday before opening a three-game series with the Blue Jays on Tuesday. 目前洋基在外卡上以5場落後於紅襪隊，雙城和白襪也在競爭之列。星期一洋基將休兵一天再開始和藍鳥的系列賽。 "We have to do it every day, and that's the bottom line," Girardi said. "We're behind teams, and we have to make up some games. We need to get on good streaks, long streaks, and win every time if we want to play in October." Girardi說：「我們必須每天都打得好，若想要在10月有球打，我們必須贏、連贏、連勝的持續下去。」 --------------------------------------------- 久違的翻譯,若有錯誤,請指證! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 60.248.126.44
