TAMPA, Fla. -- Those unsure if Mariano Rivera actually owns a pair of road gray Spring Training pants may finally discover the truth. According to Yankees manager Joe Girardi on Monday morning, Rivera was scheduled to make his Grapefruit League debut March 17. Problem is, that game will take place in Clearwater, Fla., a 15-minute bus ride away -- and Rivera has become famous for avoiding any and all Spring Training road games. He does not even keep a pair of gray pants in his locker. 囧拉迪表示:MO本來要在3/17號在春訓初登板，問題是，那場比賽是客場比賽然後MO連一條客場褲子都沒有 "That's all right," Rivera said, rather coyly, when asked about the date. "We'll figure it out." He wasn't kidding. Later Monday, Girardi changed his tune, saying that Rivera may instead pitch on March 16 -- at home against the Astros. 所以囧拉迪說有可能讓MO在16號出賽─在自己家裡 "Let's just say we expect him to pitch sometime between the 16th and 17th," Girardi said. 囧拉迪:反正不是16號就是17號 What is clear, regardless of locale, is that Rivera is nearly ready to take the mound in a game. From behind the protection of an L-screen at George M. Steinbrenner Field on Monday, Rivera threw 34 pitches of batting practice, later calling the session "bueno" and "delicious." He will throw a bullpen session Thursday and another round of BP on Saturday, before taking the mound in a game -- presumably -- on the 16th or 17th. MO在模擬賽(打擊練習?)丟了34球他覺得很蘇湖 Rivera, of course, is also famous for requiring almost no time at all to work into game shape. Last spring, coming off right shoulder surgery, Rivera also did not appear in a Grapefruit League game until March 17. He made just seven spring appearances in all, then began the regular season with seven consecutive scoreless outings. He expects something similar in 2010. "When the time comes," Rivera said, "I will be ready." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.132.145.15
