"With this exchange program, we will be part of a life-transforming experience for children in Boston and Japan as they explore each other's cultures through their shared love of baseball." 「日本是紅襪王國深深尊敬的一位成員，自從松阪大輔和岡島秀樹來了之後，我們的球迷對日本的興趣暴增。」紅襪隊主席Tom Werner說：「有了這個交換計畫，對波士頓和日本的小孩來說，我們會是一個轉變人生經驗的一部分，他們可以透過共同對棒球的熱愛，探索彼此的文化」 The presence of Matsuzaka and Okajima, two Japanese pitchers who contributed to the 2007 World Series championship club, raised interest in Japan among New Englanders virtually overnight. 松阪和岡島的出現，兩位為2007年世界冠軍球隊作出貢獻的日本投手，一夜之間讓新英格蘭地區的居民對日本產生興趣。 This year, 12 young baseball players (boys age 12 to 14 years) and two Japanese youth baseball coaches will be selected in Kyoto and Chiba, and the same number in Boston to participate in this cultural exchange program. 今年，會從京都和千葉選出12位年輕的棒球選手（12到14歲的男孩），還有兩位日本的年輕棒球教練，波士頓也會選出相同數量的人參加文化交換計畫。 Okajima, a well-liked left-handed reliever and a member of the American League All-Star team for 2007, has already indicated his interest in the Kyoto-Boston exchange program, and will be asked to participate in a ceremonial way. Okajima is a native of Kyoto, and his participation in the project is guaranteed to attract broad public attention and coverage in the print media and television. 岡島，一位備受喜愛的後援左投和2007年美聯明星賽成員，已經表明了他對京都－波士頓交換計畫的興趣，而且會被邀請參加這個儀式。岡島是京都人，他如果參加這個計畫，保證會吸引廣大民眾的注意力，還有報章電視媒體的報導。 Likewise, the presence of these two superstars on one American team underscores the interest Japanese youth now have in America, and in New England in particular. 這兩位超級明星出現在一支美國球隊，吸引了日本青少年對美國的興趣，特別是新英格蘭地區。【下略】 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.166.205.94
