http://tinyurl.com/9pz994b Beane’s real plan, of course, was that the 6-foot-3, 212-pound left-handed-hitting first baseman would become a slugger in the middle of the A’s batting order, based on his hitting at the University of Virginia, where he set a program record for runs batted in. 2007年時運動家在41順位選了強打Sean Doolittle Beane的計劃是將他養成未來的當家第四棒重砲 That was all before Doolittle, 26, lost nearly full three seasons, 2009 to 2011, because of operations on both knees. Then, three days from his scheduled return to Class AAA Sacramento, he injured a tendon in his right (nonthrowing) wrist, and was told that he might have to miss another year. It was enough to make him consider the possibility of leaving the A’s, returning to college to complete his degree and entering the working world. 不幸的是 Doolittle在09~11三年內雙膝開刀復出沒三天右手腕又受了可能要整季報銷的傷 Instead, Doolittle headed for the mound. The fanciful backup plan was no longer a gag. Doolittle沒有因為這些打擊而退休反而選擇站上投手丘 “Ultimately, I wanted to leave no stone unturned, to be able to look back with no regrets,” Doolittle said Tuesday night. “If pitching didn’t work out, then at least I could say that I tried everything I could to extend my baseball career.” Doolittle: 要走的話也要沒有遺憾得走如果投球不行至少我可以說我已經盡力了 He made it to the mound in time to pitch one inning in the Arizona Rookie League last season, then started this year at Class A Stockton. Six games later, he was promoted to Class AA Midland. Eight games after that, he found himself in Sacramento ... for all of two games. 去年在AZL投一局今年從A+出發六場比賽後升上AA 八場比賽後升上AAA 再兩場比賽後他就升上大聯盟 Doolittle’s total minor league line before the A’s called him up in June: 17 games, 26 innings, 1.04 earned run average, 50 strikeouts, 8 walks. Amount of time that he had been a professional pitcher: about nine months. 小聯盟完全屠殺 On Tuesday, Beane’s backup plan threw 12 pitches to Tigers hitters, all of them four-seam fastballs from 94 to 96 miles per hour, and collected three strikeouts, all swinging. 季後賽演出連3K Doolittle’s bullpen mate and fellow left-hander Travis Blackley said: “It’ s not news to anyone how good his arm is. At this level, a young pitcher might be inclined to try to miss bats, but Sean just fires it in there as hard as he can, telling hitters to go get it — but they can’t.” 隊友Travis Blackley: 他的火球噴進去沒人打的到 “I never thought that pitching would get me to the big leagues,” Doolittle said. “I just wanted to keep playing, and this was the only way I could think of. Reaching the big leagues was the farthest thing from my mind.” Doolittle: 我沒想過我會靠投球上大聯盟我只想一直打球 No longer. A year ago, Doolittle was a broken-down hitter contemplating retirement. Now he’s dominating the opposition on the game’s biggest stage. A Plan B has never looked so good. 一年前 Doolittle還是個準備退休的傷兵現在他是舞台上最耀眼的明星最好的B計劃也不過如此 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.109.64.154
