原文 http://www.dailynews.com/opinions/ci_22339415/heres-baseball-hall-fame-vote -steroid-guys-opinion 作者 Kevin Modesti 以下簡譯之 Here's a baseball Hall of Fame vote for the 'steroid guys': Opinion 我投給了藥人 In trying to save the baseball Hall of Fame from steroid cheaters, the voters are destroying it. 為了不讓藥人進入名人堂投票者們的行為卻正在摧毀它 Since the days of Babe Ruth, the Hall of Fame has played a special role in American sports, handing down the history of the nation's essential game from fathers and mothers to sons and daughters. Veteran baseball writers have cast annual ballots and proclaimed: These were the players fans clamored to see, marveled at, argued about. These were the players who mattered. These were the icons of their eras. 自從貝比之後名人堂一直都有特殊的地位被選進的球員都是最強的是偶像 The Hall of Fame became something totally different with today's announcement that voters have slammed the museum's door on a generation of stars that includes seven-time Most Valuable Player Barry Bonds, seven-time Cy Young Award winner Roger Clemens, and the great former Dodger Mike Piazza, first-time candidates undone by their connection to performance-enhancing drugs. 今天的名人堂有點不一樣了舉凡 Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Mike Piazza 這些最強的球員卻因為跟藥沾上關係而不得其門而入 The Hall of Fame now is the place where steroid suspects are judged. 名人堂變成了聖人堂 Voters, many of whom presumably helped to select Bonds and Clemens for all of those awards, have delivered a redacted history to future generations: Bonds' record 762 home runs -- didn't happen. Clemens' 4,672 strikeouts -- never heard about them. Mark McGwire's and Sammy Sosa's home-run exploits -- wash your mouth out. The controversy they inspired -- move along, nothing to see here. 投票者們其中很多都曾經在各個獎項投給這些人的現在卻試圖給大眾這樣的訊息棒子爺的762轟沒發生過火箭人的4672次三振沒聽說過馬怪和索沙的全壘打大戰別再說了勿聽勿說勿看 I voted for Bonds, Clemens, 我投給了棒子爺和火箭人 Piazza, McGwire, Sosa, Jeff Bagwell and Tim Raines. Some suggest that those of us who vote for "steroid guys" are apologists for a tainted era. Quite the opposite: We're the ones who are facing reality instead of helping Major League Baseball sweep its mess under the rug. 我投給了棒子爺和火箭人還有 Piazza, McGwire, Sosa, Jeff Bagwell, Tim Raines 有人說我們這些投給藥人的是禁藥年代的辯護者恰恰相反我們只是面對現實並且不想幫助大聯盟把那個年代整個遺忘 Let's be clear that PEDs are bad. If their use can't be stopped, their users should be held accountable. The question is whether Hall of Fame voting is the way to do that. 禁藥是不好的用藥的人應該要被懲罰但應該用名人堂來懲罰他們嗎 In this year's voting, Craig Biggio got 68.2 percent, coming closest to the 75 percent threshold for enshrinement, while Clemens and Bonds got less than 40 percent and fell far short. Say what you want about the message you send to children if you honor suspected cheaters, but telling kids that Craig Biggio was the towering figure of his era is absurd. 今年 Biggio 拿到68.2%的選票是最多的火箭人和棒子爺都是40%不到不管你對禁藥的態度如何要說 Biggio 是那個年代最強的球員根本就是荒謬 After voting against McGwire on PED grounds in my first years with a ballot, I realized that a voter who focuses on drug questions is condemned to a lifetime of playing sports detective. It's hard enough to decide if a player's achievements on the field are worthy of Cooperstown, without having to decide who to believe about how he built his muscles. 我有投票權的第一年沒投給馬怪我明白了一件事如果你在投票的時候一直關注在禁藥問題上的話那你最好是個警探要決定一個球員的表現值不值得進入名人堂已經夠難的了何況還要關心他是怎麼健身的 A majority of voters apparently don't mind; after all, acting as the steroid jury enhances their power and gives them more to write and rant about. But fans and other lovers of the history of baseball should mind. 大部分的投票者似乎不太在意畢竟當個禁藥陪審團給他們更多材料可寫可抱怨但球迷們應該要在意 Starting now, anyone who visits the Hall of Fame plaques in Cooperstown, N.Y., or reads the list of 236 players honored since 1936, must wonder who isn't there because he wasn't great enough and who isn't there because he was a little too great. 從今天起造訪古柏鎮的人們在閱讀自1936年以來的236位名人堂成員介紹時不由得要想想沒被選入的那些人他們是不夠強呢還是太強了 The Hall of Fame bestows a high honor. It also preserves history. Voters who are trying to protect the institution's first role are diminishing the second. 名人堂給予榮耀也保存歷史投票者們想要保護前者卻減損了後者 The Hall today is a different, lesser place. 所以它變成了聖人堂心得: 比較年輕一代的記者們似乎對禁藥問題的態度較為開明火箭人和棒子爺應該終究還是會進入名人堂的 -- 轉錄可，請註明出處作者 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.133.52.68
