http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/52379320←來源，以下大致翻翻 A Major League Baseball umpire was recently dismissed for what was believed to be the first known drug ouster among umps, two people familiar with the situation have told The Associated Press. MLB announced on June 14 that Brian Runge was no longer on the staff and that a Triple-A umpire had been promoted, but didn't give a reason. Only once since 2000 had such a change been made in midseason, and that was because of an injury. 6/14，在大聯盟有著13年執法資歷的裁判Brian Runge因為不明原因遭到聯盟除名，一位3A 的裁判被拉上來遞補他的位子，這是2000年以來首度在季中有裁判被解職，當時是因為受傷。 The two people said Runge failed at least one drug test, then reached an agreement so he could remain on the umpire roster. When he failed to comply with those terms, he was released. 日前有兩位匿名人士告訴美聯社，Runge沒有通過藥檢（至少一次，次數不明），但跟聯盟達成了協議，只要能夠遵守就能不被除名，事後看來他似乎沒能照他承諾的去做，於是就被炒了。 The people spoke on condition of anonymity because MLB didn't publicly say why Runge was gone. 因為聯盟沒有說Runge到底是為何被炒，所以兩位人士採匿名的方式爆料。 It could not be independently determined by the AP what drug was involved. 究竟涉及什麼樣的藥物，除了官方沒人知道。 Joe West, president of the World Umpires Association - the union representing umps - declined comment Tuesday. 世界裁判組織的總裁Joe West不願對此發表評論。 The AP was unable to contact Runge through the union or other umpires. 美聯社也聯絡不上Runge。 Like players, umpires are subject to random drug tests. Oakland pitcher Bartolo Colon, Philadelphia catcher Carlos Ruiz and San Diego catcher Yasmani Grandal all missed time this season because of drug suspensions imposed last year. In addition, 26 players have been suspended this year under the minor league drug program. 跟球員一樣，裁判也會被隨機抽測藥檢，Colon、Ruiz、Grandal今年都因為上個賽季後沒通過藥檢而被禁賽，另外今年小聯盟已有26位球員遭到禁賽。 The 43-year-old Runge didn't work in the majors after last Aug. 30 while dealing with a knee injury. He called spring training games this year and later did several Triple-A games, but hadn't been back in the big leagues during the regular season. 43歲的Runge由於膝傷的關係去年8/30後就再也不曾在大聯盟執法，今年有擔任春訓以及 3A球賽的裁判，但仍沒有回到大聯盟。 Runge joined the MLB umpiring staff in 1999. He worked playoffs three times and last year's All-Star game. Runge 99年進入大聯盟裁判體系，曾三度在季後賽、以及去年明星賽中執法。 He is a member of MLB's first three-generation family of umpires. Grandfather Ed was an American League umpire from 1954-70 and worked the World Series three times; father Paul called National League games from 1973-97 and did the World Series four times before becoming the NL's executive director of umpires. 三代都是裁判，可說是裁判世家。 Brian Runge was behind the plate for a pair of no-hitters last year - Philip Humber's perfect game and the combo effort by six Seattle pitchers. He also was at third base for Matt Cain's perfect game last season. 另外他是去年Humber的PG以及六位水手投手接力無安打比賽的主審，Cain的PG他則擔任三壘審。 -- 我的臉書個人粉絲專頁－The Dream Field，歡迎來逛逛！ https://www.facebook.com/TheDreamField 昔日LHIT Fanspage同好重起爐灶的專頁－MLB Dugout https://www.facebook.com/MlbDugout -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 49.159.159.21 ※ 編輯: Sparksfly 來自: 49.159.159.21 (07/05 15:06)
