KANSAS CITY -- It's taken four years for Alex Rodriguez to feel comfortable playing for the Yankees. Now, he is producing one of the greatest seasons in club history. A-Rod花了四年適應洋基現在他要寫下最佳的一個球季 A smiling and excited Rodriguez added another impressive chapter to his list of accomplishments on Saturday night in the Yankees' 11-5 win over the Royals. He set a Major League record and hit his 50th and 51st homers of the season, the 514th and 515th of his career, off Brian Bannister. 滿臉笑容和興奮的A-Rod在星期六的洋基球場多加了一條印象深刻的章節~11比5勝了皇家 "It takes some people four full years to get comfortable," Rodriguez said. "I am a goofy guy and I make a lot of mistakes. Sometimes you just have to be able to laugh at yourself, and I have not done that enough." "這需要整整四年去適應" A-Rod說 "我是愚笨的人做出一堆錯誤有時候你可以嘲笑自己但我沒有這麼做" The two blasts gave Rodriguez six homers in his past four games and eight in his last 10. Overall, A-Rod is batting .317 with 51 homers, 138 RBIs and 130 runs scored. A-Rod過去四場敲了六支全壘打(過去十場八支) 打擊率.317, 138打點, 130次回來得分 "I think just the fun aspect of it," manager Joe Torre said of Rodriguez's ability to produce the statistics he has posted this season. "He is really having a good time. Who wouldn't with that kind of talent and the streak he is in right now? "我認為這個觀點只是好玩性質" Torre說A-Rod今年有能力去改寫數據 "他真的過了個好時光誰不想擁有這種天賦和這種時刻?" "But even during the games, he is having fun, and that is something that I didn't see before this. I think it is going to pay off for him. If it is helping him, then it is helping us, too." "但我以前沒有看他那麼高興過我想現在是他實現該有的價值如果(天)幫助他祂也在幫助我們" The first homer came in the fourth inning. Rodriguez hit a 3-1 Bannister pitch to straightaway center field for a two-run shot that gave New York a 4-0 lead. It appeared that center fielder Joey Gathright might have a play on the ball, but it cleared the center-field fence out of Gathright's reach. 四局下半的第一支全壘打 A-Rod在3B1S Bannister手上擊出中間方向2分砲比數拉到4-0 中外野手Gathright似乎也努力的追但是球越過了籬笆 "I've faced a lot of other good home run hitters, and when you stay ahead of them, you do all right," Bannister said. "But when they know a strike is coming, they are a lot more dangerous." "我面對過許多好全壘打打者你站在前面" Bannister說 "當他打出一個球飛了過來那是危險的" A-Rod became the fourth player in Yankees history to hit 50 homers in a single season. Roger Maris, 61 in 1961, and Mickey Mantle, 54 in 1961 and 52 in 1956, are the only other Yankees to hit 50 since 1939. Babe Ruth hit 50-plus four times in his career, including 60 in 1927, 59 in 1921, 54 in 1928 and 54 in 1920. A-Rod是洋基史上第四位單季敲出50支全壘打的球員 Roger Maris 61, 1961 Mickey Mantle 54, 1961 ; 52, 1956 Babe Ruth 60, 1927 ; 59, 1921 ; 54, 1928 ; 54, 1920 "I said last night that this has been a pretty magical season so far, and to be doing it and winning games in the middle of a pennant race means that much more," Rodriguez said of hitting 50. "昨天晚上這是很美妙的球季為了冠軍賽而努力比賽"A-Rod打完50轟後說 "That is pretty incredible stuff," Torre said. "He is having more fun. I noticed that in Spring Training, and it has certainly carried over. I think it has given him an opportunity to just leave it there. If it wasn't a good day or a good at-bat, he just leaves it there and moves on. Whatever caused it, whatever he dealt with in the winter time, it is certainly working for him." "真是難以相信的本質" Torre說 "春訓時我注意到他有這麼個機會" The first homer was Rodriguez's 48th as a third baseman. The blast broke his own American League record, set in 2005, for homers by an AL third baseman, and it tied the Major League record for homers by a third baseman in a single season. 這是他當三壘手的第48,49轟也寫下了MLB的紀錄 Mike Schmidt hit 48 in 1980 with the Phillies, and Adrian Beltre tied the mark in 2004 with the Dodgers. Mike Schmidt和Adrian Beltre也都有48支HR Rodriguez broke the record two innings later with a solo shot in the sixth on a 3-1 pitch from Bannister. A-Rod now holds the single-season record for homers by a shortstop and a third baseman. A-Rod繼續打破紀錄六局下又在Bannister投到3B1S時打了陽春砲也繼續在HR上保持李先 "It is very special," Rodriguez said. "I admire guys like [Brooks] Robinson and [Mike] Schmidt and [George] Brett and all of the great guys that have played before me. It just makes it very humbling, and I thank the good Lord for that." 真是特別 A-Rod說 "我崇敬許多偉大的球員 Brooks Robinson, Mike Schmidt. George Brett 需要謙虛的感謝有這麼個時刻" The second homer, estimated at 382 feet, gave A-Rod eight multi-homer games this season and 52 in his career, providing New York with a 5-2 lead. 第二次的全壘打 382呎今年第8次雙響砲以上生涯第52次洋基取得5-2領先 "It is a comfortable spot to be there," Rodriguez said. "I want be there 10 times a game." 這是很好的節奏 A-Rod說我希望有10次 This marks the third time that A-Rod has hit 50 homers in one season. He hit 52 in 2001 and 57 in 2002 as a member of the Texas Rangers. 這是第三次 A-Rod 完成50轟, 在遊騎兵時打了兩次 52(2001), 57(2002) "It's special," he said. "We are in the middle of a pennant race, so it is a little bit of a different scenario. It's a lot more special in New York." "很特別就像不一樣得賽車比賽" A-Rod almost hit his third homer of the game in the Yankees' seven-run sixth inning, flying out to deep right-center off reliever Ryan Braun. If A-Rod had homered, it would have been the second time this week that he had homered twice in one inning. A-Rod有可能擊出第三個HR 但是被接殺否則是他第二次單週雙次雙響 "We almost saw something tonight that has almost never been done," Torre added. Torre說今晚看了許多紀錄 While Rodriguez jogged across the infield, the crowd of 35,518 gave him a loud ovation and several fans chanted, "MVP, MVP." 當A-Rod跑完一圈時全場觀眾都在叫MVP "I know he is my player, but it is really hard to think that anyone's numbers can hold up to what he is doing," Torre said of the AL MVP race. 雖然它是我的球員但是沒有人能把握他會做出什麼事 "The bad side of this thing is that he does it so often, you are surprised when he doesn't do it," Torre added. "I still marvel -- we all do. It is an honor to watch this stuff. There is no question about it. Every at-bat, the excitement that he generates and the fact that we are in a pennant race certainly helps us a great deal." 他一直做相同的事但他不做的時候你又會很驚訝看這這場球賽覺得很光榮對他的表現沒有任何疑問 A-Rod was hit on the left elbow by a Luke Hochevar curveball in the eighth inning. Shelley Duncan pinch-ran for Rodriguez, and A-Rod earned another loud ovation from the crowd when he left the field. 8局時A-Rod遭到觸身球 Duncan代跑全場觀眾又起立鼓掌 "I said, 'You should hit this time after hitting two homers,'" Torre said. "After being hit by a pitch, I made a nice decision for you. He is so loose and free and easy right now." Torre說 "在下場後他現在很放鬆" And comfortable. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 125.229.169.204 ※ 編輯: EIORU 來自: 125.229.169.204 (09/09 16:25)
