: A-Rod will pass on Home Run Derby
: MLB's leading slugger doesn't want to affect swing
: By Bryan Hoch / MLB.com
: Alex Rodriguez (right) said Barry Bonds should be at the All-Star Game.
: (Jeff Chiu/AP)
: SAN FRANCISCO --
他說邦斯應該出席在舊金山舉行的全明星賽。
: Alex Rodriguez says he loves everything about AT&T Park: the modern yet
: classic structure of the facility, the China Basin location, the vibe that
: exudes feelings of a West Coast New York.
他喜歡愛AT&T公園的一切，現代卻又不失典型結構的功能。
: Well, almost everything. Rodriguez, the Major Leagues' leading vote-getter
: for the July 10 All-Star Game at San Francisco, revealed Friday that he has
: no intention of participating in this year's Home Run Derby.
那麼，幾乎一切，A-ROD，職業體育聯盟透露在7月10號的全明星賽，他沒有意圖參加今年
的全壘打大賽。
: "I've never been good at it, No. 1," Rodriguez said. "I'm going to enjoy
: watching it this year. I'll have a good seat. I've worked hard for my swing
: and I definitely don't want to let anything get in the way of it. My only
: responsibility this year is to the New York Yankees.
對於這個項目我不是第一，今年我將去享受、觀看它， 我為我的搖擺艱苦工作了，並且
我很明確的不想用什麼方式得到它，今年我的責任是紐約洋基。
: Rodriguez, batting .315 with a Major League-leading 73 RBIs and 67 runs
: scored, appears to be a lock to start at third base for Jim Leyland's
: American League club in the Midsummer Classic.
A-ROD，0.315的打擊率 73分打點 67得分的紀錄。
: With 27 blasts entering the Yankees' series at San Francisco, Rodriguez
: also leads the big leagues in that category, but said he will opt to keep his
: cuts on ice during the popular home run hitting experience.
: Yankees manager Joe Torre said that the club does not encourage players
: to participate, but it is also not discouraged.
脫瑞說他不鼓勵，但也不反對球員去參加俱樂部。
: "There are no good habits you can have [from participating]," Torre said.
: "Alex is pretty special because he's one of the few guys who can just hit
: the ball to straightaway center field and out of the ballpark.
: "The fans love it. But again, when you're going about grooving your swing,
: it's probably not the ideal plate practice to have."
: The decision hasn't soured Rodriguez's experience in San Francisco, a
: stadium where he'd logged six hits in 11 previous at-bats, including a home
: run, entering Friday's series opener.
脫瑞說A-ROD之所以特別，是因為它是少數人能把球直直的打出球場外的人
在舊金山，他在先前的11個打數敲出了6支安打，包含一發全壘打，他已經準備好禮拜五
系列戰的到來。
: In a facility where so much revolves around a singular player, Barry
: Bonds -- a countdown of Bonds' pursuit of 755 home runs is always available
: on the wall in right-center field, and also in the windows of a plaza outside
: the home plate entrance -- Rodriguez used the opportunity to voice what he
: cautioned might be an unpopular opinion regarding Bonds' ongoing candidacy
: for the All-Star team.
: "One hundred percent, I think the game needs it," Rodriguez said. "This
: is not popular for a lot of people, but Barry Bonds is probably the greatest
: player that's ever put on a uniform. He's awesome"
A-ROD說邦斯是他非常敬畏的一位打者。
: Of course, with the Yankees in town to see Bonds and the Giants, chatter
: has been frequent concerning who might eventually top Bonds once he does hit
: the seven remaining home runs necessary to tie Hank Aaron's record of 755.
: VOTE NOW > | Complete All-Star Game coverage >
: The popular choice remains Rodriguez, who needs nine home runs to join
: the 500 home run club at age 32, the fastest pace of any player in history.
: Even Bonds agreed in Spring Training, telling reporters to "call Alex"
: regarding the possibility of someone hitting 800 home runs
當然，對於洋基迷進場看球，閒聊和關心的是他只要在7發全壘打就追上了Hank Aaron的75
5發全壘打，對於A-ROD，他只要在9發全壘打就可以32歲的年紀達到500俱樂部，歷史上最快
的步調，邦斯在春訓時曾說過，A_ROD是有可能達到800發全壘打的。
: For Rodriguez, those were topics best left to another day, brushing them
: away the same way he might turn on an impeding fastball.
: "I'm not worried about that," Rodriguez said. "I'm concerned about
: winning a game tonight. It's hard to really think about individual things
: when you're really trying to win. I got to this point by thinking about the
: team. This is Barry's time, not my time."
: Bryan Hoch is a reporter for MLB.com. This story was not subject to the
: approval of Major League Baseball or its clubs.
對於A-ROD，在於某天他可能是頂尖的記錄者，A-ROD說，在今晚他只關心贏得這場比賽，
如果你想著個人的事情，是很難在這場比賽贏球的，他想的是球隊，是個團體，這是邦斯的
的時代，不是我的時代。
