古巴猛男淘汰中華台北
http://ppt.cc/SVL9
TOKYO -- Cuba isn't done in the 2013 World Baseball Classic just yet, and on
Saturday night the Cubans showed just how tough an out they're going to be.
古巴的2013ＷＢＣ之旅尚未完結，而在週六晚間，他們示範了要讓古巴打者出局
有多麼困難。
Jose Abreu, Frederich Cepeda, and Yasmani Tomas hit multi-run homers, Alfredo
Despaigne mixed in a solo shot, and the Cuban offense erupted in a 14-0 rout
of Chinese Taipei in an elimination game on Saturday at Tokyo Dome.
Jose Abreu, Frederich Cepeda與Yasmani Tomas都擊出了兩分以上打點的全壘
打，Alfredo Despaigne也ㄘㄚˋ了一支陽春彈。週六的東京巨蛋，古巴的打擊
大爆發主演這場中華隊潰敗的14-0 Call Game。
"Each player knew it was a do-or-die game," Cuban manager Victor Mesa said
through a translator. "Every single piece of the puzzle came together, and
they worked out very well."
「每一位選手都知道這是場生死之戰。」古巴教頭Mesa透過翻譯表示。「（比賽
裡）每一個細節都有到位，而結果非常之好。」
The win means Cuba will face the loser of Sunday night's matchup between
Japan and the Kingdom of the Netherlands for the right to advance to the
semifinals.
這場勝利意味著古巴將出戰週日晚間日本、荷蘭之戰的敗隊，爭取晉級準決賽的
門票。
"We have no choice," Mesa said of the potential team in his path. "So I can't
say that much [about it]. The only thing we can do is just play hard. My
ambition is to go to San Francisco with Japan."
「我們沒得選擇。」Mesa在講到他們可能的對手的時候說。「所以我沒辦法多說
什麼。我們所能做的唯一一件事就是努力地打。我的展望是與日本一同前往舊金
山。」
Chinese Taipei was eliminated with the loss.
中華隊在此役戰敗後遭到淘汰。（QQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ）
"Here in Tokyo, we lost two games in a row and we couldn't go forward,"
Chinese Taipei outfielder Dai-Kang Yang said.
「我們在東京連敗兩場，我們無法再前進。」外野手陽岱鋼表示。
（譯按：他應該是說中文吧，所以我這種二手翻譯應該會跟原文有出入。）
Cuba jumped out front early after Cepeda hit a two-run home run in the first
and Despaigne singled in a run in the fourth. The Cubans weren't done in that
frame, as Tomas hit a three-run homer to make the score 6-0.
古巴隊靠著Cepeda在第一局的兩分炮與Desapaigne在第四局的一分打點安打
早早取得領先優勢。但古巴隊在該局（四）並不止步於此，Tomas的三分炮
將比數擴大為6-0。
"My first at-bat, I grounded out," Tomas said through a translator. "The
manager told me to sit on the outside pitch and make good contact. That's why
I could hit a home run."
「我第一個打席打成滾地球出局。」Tomas透過翻譯表示，「總Ａ叫我等外
角球進來並確實擊球。這就是為什麼我能打出全壘打。」
Cepeda and Tomas have been on fire during the Classic. Cepeda is now 8-for-16
with three doubles, a triple, a home run and five RBIs in five games. Tomas
is 5-for-12 with a double, two homers and four RBIs over the same span.
Cepeda跟Tomas在ＷＢＣ當中表現相當火熱。Cepeda在到目前為止的五場出
賽中16支8，包括3支二壘打、1支三壘打、一支紅不讓還有5分打點。Tomas
也在相同的出賽數中繳出12支5、一支二壘打、兩支全壘打還有4分打點的成
績單。
Tomas struck out to start the sixth, but the next three hitters reached
safely to load the bases. Yulieski Gourriel singled in a run to make the
score 7-0, and Jose Fernandez brought in three more with a double.
Tomas在第六局一開始遭到三振，但接下來的三名打者都安全上壘，造成滿壘。
Yulieski Gourriel的安打將比分擴大為7-0，Jose Fernandez又以一支二壘打
多打回三分。
Cepeda doubled in a run later in the inning, and he was then driven home on a
two-run home run by Abreu. Despaigne capped an eight-run sixth with a solo
homer.
該局稍晚，Cepeda的二壘安打又送回一分，接著他也乘著Abreu的全壘打回來得
分。Despaigne又追加了一支陽春彈，得到了古巴隊在第六局的第八分。
Starting pitcher Danny Betancourt threw six scoreless innings to earn the win
for Cuba, with Ching-Lung Lo taking the loss after allowing two runs on two
hits in 2 2/3 innings.
古巴隊先發批甲Danny Betancourt丟了六局無失分得到勝投。羅錦龍則在2又2/3局
的投球中被擊出兩安打失兩分，承擔敗投。
Despite the loss, the Taiwanese team found a positive to take out of its time
in the Classic.
儘管已遭淘汰，臺灣隊的ＷＢＣ之旅仍帶來了些正面意涵。
Baseball had suffered through a few lean years recently in Taiwan, and many
hope the sport is slowly on the upswing. The Chinese Taipei team is hoping
its performance at the Classic helps get things turned around.
近來臺灣棒球的發展遭逢了相當冷清的一些年月，而很多人都希望它現在
正漸漸回春。中華隊希望能藉由他們在ＷＢＣ的表現使此一冷景回暖。
"In order to get the fans back to the stadiums, we have to play hard,"
Chinese Taipei manager Chang-Heng Hsieh said. "In that case, we are satisfied
with what we did."
「為了使球迷回到球場，我們一定得努力。」草總說。「從這個角度來看
，我們已經對我們的表現感到滿意了。」
Chinese Taipei beat the Kingdom of the Netherlands and Australia in the first
round to advance to Tokyo. They exit the Classic having lost their final
three games against Korea (to close out the first round), Japan and Cuba.
中華隊在第一輪的比賽中擊敗荷蘭與澳洲，前進東京。但他們最後以三連敗
從本屆的ＷＢＣ收場，先後輸給韓國（第一輪最後一場比賽）、日本與古巴。
"I am glad that we could show our fighting spirit to Chinese Taipei's fans,"
Hsieh said. "By playing hard here in Tokyo and Taichung, I am hoping all the
fans come back to baseball and come back to the stadiums."
「我很高興我們能向台灣的球迷們展現我們的拼戰精神。」草總表示。「希望
我們在東京、還有在台中的奮戰，能夠使球迷們重新回來喜歡棒球、重回球場。」
心得
翻這篇翻到眼眶紅紅。
謝謝中華隊，也希望大家能夠繼續支持在地的、國際的台灣棒球。
「你怎能不愛棒球。」
