2:25AM EDT October 25. 2012 - SAN FRANCISCO — These San Francisco Giants
can't be for real, can they?
巨人隊怎麼可能這麼猛?
When did they sell their soul to the devil, making circus catches, getting
bizarre bounces, and turning Detroit Tigers ace Justin Verlander into Barry
Zito and Barry Zito into Justin Verlander?
他們什麼時候和魔鬼簽約 把Zito和Verlander互換了是嗎?
The Giants crushed the Tigers 8-3 in a game so surreal, you would have
thought that General Motors moved their headquarters to Alcatraz, and Tigers
manager Jim Leyland gave up Marlboros.
巨人很扯的打爆了老虎
What was so more stunning, watching Pablo Sandoval morph into Reggie Jackson,
or Verlander, the defending MVP and Cy Young winner, unable to make it to the
fifth inning?
熊貓變成神龍大俠 和Verlander變成賽拎娘 哪個比較驚奇?
"That was not a good night,'' Tigers Triple Crown winner Miguel Cabrera said
of Sandoval. "That was an unbelievable night.''
Miguel Cabrera: 今晚是個不蘇服的夜晚
It was a historical night. Sandoval became only the fourth player to hit
three homers in a World Series game, joining Babe Ruth, Reggie Jackson and
Albert Pujols. In fact, no player has hit three homers at AT&T Park since the
Los Angeles Dodgers' Kevin Elster — in the park's opening game in 2000.
神龍大俠是史上第二位在AT&T球場三響砲的球員
The most stunning aspect of Sandoval's feat was that two of the homers came
off Verlander. The dude came into the game with a 3-0 record and 0.74 ERA
this postseason and gave up six hits and five runs in four innings.
最扯的是有兩發是打在V壯身上
"That was extremely impressive,'' Verlander said. "I wish I hadn't
contributed.''
Verlander: 真厲害 真希望我不是挨打的那位
Meanwhile, Zito, who was nothing more than a $126 million cheerleader and
kept off the postseason roster in 2010, suffocated the Tigers lineup without
throwing a pitch above 85 mph. Maybe the Giants' 15-0 record in Zito's last
15 starts isn't a fluke after all.
兩年前126M啦啦隊長Zito用小便球玩弄老虎 Zito近15戰巨人全勝
"Just going up against Verlander,'' Zito said, "I was coming out here
expecting a game that was going to be 1-0, 2-0. ... It was just awesome, man.
It's just kind of surreal.''
Zito: 我本來預期和V壯的賽揚對決會是小比分拉鋸戰
It was such a bizarre night that Joe Montana and MC Hammer were seen partying
in the same suite at AT&T Park.
"Well, you know,'' Giants manager Bruce Bochy said, laughing, "it's hard to
figure this game sometimes.''
Bochy: 你知道的 有時候比賽就是這麼神奇
The Giants were also a prohibitive underdog in 2010 when they faced the Texas
Rangers with former Cy Young winner Cliff Lee. Lee came into that game with a
3-0 record and 0.74 ERA in the postseason and exited after 4 2/3 innings,
rocked for eight hits and seven runs.
兩年前的鬼神Cliff Lee也被打爆
The Rangers were never again the same, eliminated in five games.
遊騎兵自此一蹶不振 五場買單
The Tigers, who have Verlander scheduled again for Game 5, can only hope for
a different fate.
老虎希望不要步上遊騎兵的後塵
It may be just one game, but let's be honest, this was a momentum changer.
When you're watching the greatest pitcher in baseball get crushed, it has a
tendency to play games with your psyche.
或許只是一場比賽 但當王牌被打爆 多少也會影響到心理
"I don't know what happened,'' Verlander said. "I just didn't execute. It was
kind of a battle for me from the get-go. I didn't know if it was the
(seven-day) layoff, or what.''
Verlander: 一開始狀況就不好 不知道是不是休太久的關係
The Tigers had gone 45 consecutive postseason innings without trailing, but
they've now just been introduced to a team that has outscored the opposition
30-4 since Sandoval's homer in Game 4 of the National League Championship
Series.
The Tigers aren't about to panic and pitch Verlander on short rest in Game 4,
despite throwing 98 pitches on Wednesday. Verlander has never pitched on
short rest in his career and isn't about to now. Besides, Max Scherzer is
scheduled to start Game 4, and he pitched better than Verlander during the
teeth of the summer.
老虎不會緊張地把Verlander中三日 他們還有Scherzer可用
"It's disappointing,'' Verlander said. "Would you have liked to win Game 1 of
the World Series? Absolutely.
"I don't know if you have been watching, but the three guys behind me are
pretty good.''
Verlander: 我們後三號先發也很不錯
The Tigers insist they'll be just fine, believing that sea of
black-and-orange was just an early Halloween party, and that the Giants will
wake up to reality this morning.
老虎相信一切OK 巨人很快就會回到現實
"This isn't the end of the world,'' Verlander said. "Nobody is hanging their
head.''
The Tigers, in fact, were actually laughing in the clubhouse. If they weren't
marveling about Sandoval, they were joking about Angel Pagan's routine
grounder that caromed crazily off the third-base bag and landed behind
Cabrera for a double. Verlander was re-living the scene when pitching coach
Jeff Jones came to the mound in the third inning when he fell behind 2-0 to
Sandoval.
老虎其實在休息室裡很放鬆 還對"三壘"安打開玩笑
"I just asked him what he was doing out there,'' Verlander said. "I told
Jeff, 'All you're doing is getting the crowd more into it.' "
Verlander: 投手教練叫暫停的時候 我對他說"你來這裡幹嘛 你這只是讓觀眾更嗨"
Well, Verlander got them into a frenzy on the next pitch, with Sandoval
sending his 95-mph fastball into the left-field seats.
結果下一球Verlander被幹泡 觀眾又更嗨了
"Obviously, that sucks for us,'' Tigers first baseman Prince Fielder said.
"You don't want to lose. But to see that kind of performance in a World
Series is incredible.''
Fielder: 當然 這對我們來說不好受 但在世界大賽這種表現真的難以置信
While the Tigers marveled, deep in their hearts, they believe it was some
sort of fluke.
老虎內心深處相信這一切只是幻覺
Come on, Sandoval hit only 12 homers in the regular season, so now he's Barry
Bonds? Verlander has lasted four or fewer innings just twice in three years,
and it's going to happen twice in five days? The Tigers have lost only three
times in the last 22 days, and now they're going to match that in a week?
拜託 肥熊貓整季才12轟 所以他現在進化成Bonds了嗎? Verlander有可能再次被打爆嗎?
老虎過去22天才輸三場 接下來會在一周內輸三場嗎?
It can't possibly happen.
Can it?
不可能 是吧
"I'm a guy,'' Leyland says, "that doesn't believe in momentum in baseball.
When you use five pitchers in a game that Justin Verlander starts, that's not
good tonic. I think momentum is your next day's pitcher.''
Leyland: 我不相信氣勢 氣勢是你明天的先發投手
And that will be Doug Fister. He'll be facing struggling starter in Madison
Bumgarner.
明天老虎派出Fister對決Bumgarner
Advantage, Tigers.
老虎優勢
Then again, you can't be sure after tonight.
當然 今天過後 你也不能太確定
