對於早就習慣球隊勝利的洋基球迷來說，2010年代洋基的表現實在令人失望。 Steven Tydings在本休賽季開啟名叫"Missing Ring"的系列文章，他曾承諾要引領讀者回顧洋基2009年奪冠後至今發生的一切，但後來他有了新的工作只好離開viewsfrom314ft團隊。今天我就試著翻譯他唯一寫的一篇系列文，之後再用他的文章架構把他挖的坑填滿。 Missing Rings: Reexamining the 2010 Postseason 原文：https://viewsfrom314ft.com/2010-new-york-yankees-missing-rings/ https://imgur.com/UqPCpAY

This offseason, I'm doing deep dive into the Yankees's postseason runs since the 2009 World Series and examine why the Bombers fell short for a title. First up, the title defense of 2010. 這個休賽季，我將會回顧洋基2009年奪冠後所有的季後賽之旅，深入分析並且找出洋基失敗的原因。首先是2010年的冠軍保衛戰。 The Yankees didn’t fully reunite the band in 2010 as Brian Cashman and co. said farewell to Johnny Damon, Hideki Matsui and Melky Cabrera, among others. Brought in to fortify the World Series defense were Marcus Thames, Nick Johnson, Chan Ho Park and Javier Vazquez, the latter of whom came over with Boone Logan to extend the rotation and bullpen. 2009年休賽季Cashman與其他制服組成員沒有留下所有的冠軍班底，選擇不跟奪冠大功臣松井秀喜與Johnny Damon續約，並且交易走Melky Cabrera。洋基簽下Marcus Thames、Nick Johnson與朴贊浩，交易Cabrera換來Javier Vazquez與Boone Logan補強後段輪值與牛棚，Chase for #28的旅程開始了。 The big acquisition of the offseason was Curtis Granderson. The 29-year-old center fielder cost the Yankees Austin Jackson, Phil Coke and Ian Kennedy, but he had the potential to add left-handed pop to the top or bottom of their order. 那個休賽季最大的補強是交易來Curtis Granderson，洋基送出全美排名27的外野新秀Austin Jackson、年輕先發Ian Kennedy，還有左牛Phil Coke才換到這位29歲的明星中外野手。左打的他將受惠於洋基球場較短的右外野，大幅增強後段棒次的威脅性。 That eclectic group complemented a strong core. Through in their 30s, Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez and Mark Teixeira formed the heart of a powerful lineup, while Robinson Cano, Jorge Posada and Nick Swisher were no slouches. On the pitching side, CC Sabathia, Phil Hughes, Andy Pettitte and A.J. Burnett returned from the 2009 squad in front of the ageless Mariano Rivera. 2010洋基隊的陣容星度不減，Jeter、Arod、Teixeira是鑽石打線的核心，Cano 、Posada、Swisher也都不是好惹的。投手方面，Sabathia、Pettitte、Burnett、Hughes 組成的前四號先發實力堅強，牛棚裡也有不老傳奇Mariano Rivera鎮守。 2010 Regular Season What Went Right Robinson Cano turned into a superstar. The 27-year-old was the Yankees second-youngest everyday player and had hit .320 in 2009, but he put together both outstanding hitting and glovework to finish third in MVP voting. Nick Swisher, meanwhile, gelled in his second season with the Bombers and became an All-Star, turning into a better all-around player. Those contributions complemented a rotation with three All-Stars — Sabathia, Hughes and Pettitte — to give New York perhaps the AL’s best top-3 on their staff. At the deadline, the Yankees made a key addition with Kerry Wood, who would then allow just two runs over 26 innings over the final two months of the season. 該季亮點 Robinson Cano發展成了超級巨星，27歲的Cano是洋基陣容裡第二年輕的（僅次於Hughes的23歲），他在09奪冠賽季就繳出.320的高打擊率，但他2010年的成績大幅進步，在攻防兩端都繳出了卓越的貢獻。Cano在當季MVP票選裡榮登第三名。 Nick Swisher不只延續他前一年的好表現，打擊與右外野防守都有所進步，也讓他首度選明星賽；Sabathia、Pettitte與Hughes或許是美聯最佳的前三號先發。季中交易大限換來的老將Kerry Wood來到洋基後主投26局只失掉2分，大大增強了洋基牛棚的穩定度。 <iframe src="https://streamable.com/m/wood-mariano-s-strong-relief-c1870493783"></ifra me 補充：這裡補上這段落提到的球員數據，我私心認為Tydings沒有提到Gardner大爆發有點可惜，他的守備貢獻超級可怕.... AVG OBP SLG WRC+ UZR fWAR Robinson Cano .319 .381 .534 143 -0.5 6.4 Nick Swisher .288 .359 .511 134 2.7 4.4 Brett Gardner .277 .383 .379 112 24.8 6.2 IP ERA FIP K/9 BB/9 fWAR CC Sabathia 237.2 3.18 3.54 7.5 2.8 5.5 Andy Pettitte 129.0 3.28 3.89 7.1 2.9 2.6 Phil Hughes 176.1 4.19 4.25 4.5 3.0 3.0 What Went Wrong The bullpen outside of Rivera and Wood wasn’t fantastic. Both Logan and David Robertson were good, but D-Rob’s leap to fireman came a year later while Joba Chamberlain scuffled in his bullpen return. At age-36, Jeter declined sharply from his resurgent 2009, while A-Rod missed brief time with a calf strain and was good, not outstanding. Granderson could not hit lefties until August. Meanwhile, the back-end of the rotation wasn’t cutting it with Burnett and Vazquez not panning out. The Yankees could have shored up that issue, but … 令人失望的球員除了 Rivera 跟 Wood之外，其他救援投手都不太穩定，Logan 跟Robertson的表現不差，但Robertson直到2011年才真的breakout，補不了Joba Chamberlain在2010年連連放火燒出的大洞。 36歲的Jeter無法複製2009年的回春表現，打擊成績大幅下滑（WRC+從130掉到93 ，WAR從6.7掉到2.3）；Arod 因為小腿拉傷缺賽一段時間，他的表現還不錯但也可以看到退化的跡象；Granderson在8月之前被左投剋得一點辦法都沒有。後段先發是另一個不穩定的因子，Burnett在三振率無法維持高檔的情況下ERA爆增，Vazquez則是爛到了極點...洋基原本有機會完美解決這個問題的，但... The Inflection Point: The Cliff Lee trade On July 9, the Yankees were reported to be nearing a deal for Mariners ace Cliff Lee after Seattle had fallen out of contention. The deal apparently was set to include top prospect Jesus Montero as well as infielder David Adams and pitcher Zach McAllister. It all went wrong. Reports said the M’s raised issues with Adams’ medicals and requested either Eduardo Nunez or Ivan Nova in his place. The Yankees then countered with Adam Warren, but Seattle wouldn’t accept the deal. At the same time, the Mariners had re-opened (or perhaps never stopped) negotiations with the Rangers, who had suddenly become willing to part with their top prospect, Justin Smoak. That swung the deal as Lee went to Texas as part of a six-player deal. In retrospect, it’s obvious the Yankees would have been wise to deal Nova, Nunez or any of the players in that deal for Lee, but that might not have been on the table. The Mariners may have simply been playing the Yankees off Texas to get Smoak and never actually planned on accepting the initial deal. 轉捩點：胎死腹中的 Cliff Lee 交易案 2010/7/9有報導指出，水手與洋基接近完成Cliff Lee的交易案，洋基會把頭號新秀Jesus Montero、二壘新秀David Adams、投手新秀Zach McAllister送到西雅圖。但劇情急轉直下，水手隊對Adams的體檢報告提出質疑，隨後向洋基索取Eduardo Nunez或Ivan Nova，洋基想用Adam Warren替代，但水手隊拒絕了這個方案。於是水手隊重新開始跟遊騎兵協商，遊騎兵突然願意把Justin Smoak加入包裹中，最後雙方完成了一個牽涉6個球員的超大型交易案。無庸置疑的，以現在的角度來看洋基應該要把Nova或Nunez放在交易桌上，但我們不知道水手隊是不是真的想跟洋基談，說不定他們早就決定要把Lee送去遊騎兵，只是故意流出跟洋基隊的協商內容逼遊騎兵交出Smoak。 The Obligatory Twins Sweep Even without Lee, the Yankees cruised to a postseason berth. They ceded the division to the Rays and were rewarded with a matchup against an overachieving Twins squad, who had homefield advantage in the series. I'd do a“What went right” and “What went wrong” for this, but it all went so well. The Bombers trailed in the first two games at Target Field but won on the backs of heroics from Granderson, Teixeira, Posada and Lance Berkman, another deadline acquisition. Hughes then got the start back at Yankee Stadium for Game 3 and picked up the win in his first postseason start. The Yankees didn’t have to push anyone and avoided going to Sabathia on short rest in Game 4. Meanwhile, the Rangers needed five games to beat the Rays and needed Lee in Game 5, an all-too-familiar scenario to the present day.

即使沒有拿到Lee，洋基還是輕鬆獲得季後賽資格，雖然以一場勝差落後光芒成為外卡，但ALDS遇到的雙城注定拿洋基沒轍，即使他們有主場優勢還是束手無策。原本我想用"What went right"跟“What went wrong”來分析這個系列賽，但洋基的表現實在是無懈可擊。即便Game 1 跟 Game 2都在對方主場落後，但Granderson、 Teixeira、Posada與季中交易來的Lance Berkman輪流跳出來當英雄，洋基都順利把比分反超，取得了2-0的絕對優勢。主場的第三戰由初次在季後賽先發的Hughes主投，七局無失分的他幫助洋基再一次橫掃了好朋友雙城，洋基也就不需要擔心第四戰是否要由休三天的CC主投。另一方面，遊騎兵花了五場比賽才擊敗光芒晉級，而且Lee已經在第五戰登板了，一切都跟2019年好像 ... Falling Behind in the ALCS In terms of which games the Yankees won, the 2010 ALCS looked exactly like the 2019 series. The Yankees took Game 1 on the road, Game 5 at home and nothing else en route to defeat. Game 1, however, was a wild ride. The Rangers had homefield advantage despite an inferior record in the regular season, but Sabathia struggled and the Yankees found themselves in a 5-0 hole. Dustin Moseley (remember him?) kept the Yankees in the game with two scoreless frames with Cano hitting a solo shot. From there, the first seven Yankee batters reached to start the eighth inning as the Bombers scored five and overtook Texas. The series appeared all set for a Yankees victory and potentially a rematch of 2009 with the Phillies hosting the NLCS with the Giants. However, New York ’s lack of depth in their rotation as well as the non-trade for Lee struck hard and ultimately swung the series. The Yankees flipped Hughes and Pettitte in their rotation and Hughes was battered in Game 2. It was revealed after the fact that Petitte, who missed a swath of the second half with a groin injury, was dealing with hamstring and back issues and needed the 11 days between ALDS Game 2 and ALCS Game 3 to start. While Pettitte made just one mistake in Game 3 — a first-inning two-run homer to Josh Hamilton — Lee made none and fired eight scoreless frames to give Texas the series lead. 回顧當年的美聯冠軍戰，洋基獲勝的場次跟2019 ALCS完全相同，洋基在客場拔得頭籌取得1-0優勢，連輸三場後才在主場扳回一城。雖然遊騎兵當年只拿下90勝，不如洋基的95勝，但因為他們是美西冠軍所以有主場優勢，第一戰就在阿靈頓舉行。Sabathia在比賽剛開始就遇到亂流頻頻失分，洋基很快就0-5落後。接替CC上場的Dustin Moseley繳出2局無失分的好投，Cano 打出陽春砲吹響反攻號角，八局上半洋基連續七人上壘連得五分，完成大逆轉獲勝。 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81R4svw81QI

10/15/10 CG: ALCS Gm 1: NYY@TEX 第一戰獲勝後洋基士氣大振，大家都很樂觀的覺得洋基會順利過關，與前一年的 WS對手費城人重新碰頭。但是先發輪值人手不足的隱憂最終還是爆發，Cliff Lee的交易對於這個系列賽的結果產生了決定性的影響。洋基調換了Pettitte跟Hughes的上場順序，結果Hughes在第二戰被兇猛的條子打線打爆。我們後來才知道Pettitte受到背部跟腿筋的傷勢困擾，洋基只好讓他多休息兩天。 Pettittte 休11天才在第三戰登板，主投七局只在第一局被Josh Hamilton打了一支兩分砲。Lee主投8局投出13K，完全封鎖洋基的鑽石打線。 https://youtu.be/W0wfV-IgUF8

10/16/10 CG: NYY@TEX Gm 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BO0l9949s90

10/18/10 CG: ALCS Gm 3: TEX@NYY AJ Burnett’s Big Mistake Game 4 started out well in a duel between Burnett and Tommy Hunter as the latter lasted just 10 outs and gave up three runs. The Yankees’ first run came via a controversial home run as a Cano blast to right field was perhaps interfered with by fans. Nothing was called and the best gif in recent Yankees history was born. https://giphy.com/gifs/fans-yankees-14f35MyLF5UURq The Yankee bros. They summed up a fanbase, one that cared not for lackluster franchises such as the Rangers and had the bird prepared for all challengers. A salute to said bros, who were basically the Laker bros but across the continent. Stringing together a couple runs, the Yankees led going into the fifth inning. Burnett allowed three men to reach base but persevered unscathed. The Yankees, meanwhile, got their first two men on for Tex and A-Rod, just for a groundout and double play to foil a rally. And then the fateful sixth inning. Joe Girardi stuck with Burnett with a thin bullpen. The right-hander put a man on before getting two outs. He intentionally walked David Murphy to bring up Bengie Molina. On the first pitch, Molina hit a series-changing homer to put Texas up for good. https://youtu.be/6dA-GjKhiWM

The bullpen faltered later, which might absolve Girardi and AJ slightly in a 10-3 defeat. The now 3-1 deficit in the series was compounded by a severely strained hamstring for Teixeira, knocking him out of the series. G4是AJ Burnett跟Tommy Hunter兩個人的對決，一開始的狀況對洋基十分有利， Hunter只投了3.1局就掉了三分退場。Cano在二局下半的陽春砲有些爭議，從重播畫面來看這顆球被球迷伸手進場接走。 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCHEbrmeBzY

而外野球迷當時的反應被製作成一張超有名的GIF，這群洋基球迷心裡根本看不上遊騎兵這種弱隊，跟美國另一邊的湖人球迷一個樣。遊騎兵下個半局把比分反超，但洋基很快的在Hunter手上得到兩分，取回領先優勢，五局上半Burnett雖然讓遊騎兵形成滿壘，但最終沒有失掉任何分數。洋基在五局下半有機會擴大比分差距，Teixeira跟Arod接連上壘，但後段棒次無法延續攻勢，以一個滾地球出局和雙殺結束攻勢。接下來就是眾所皆知的六局上半，當時洋基並沒有現在的鐵牛棚，Girardi只能把 Burnett繼續留在場上。他開局就讓一人上壘，接下來順利解決兩名打者。接下來他故意保送David Murphy面對攻擊能力不強的捕手Bengie Molina。Molina把Burnett投出的第一球擊往右外野....這球一直飛，一直飛（我多麼希望它飛出界），最後是在標竿內飛出場外，遊騎兵就以5:3反超。這一擊打碎了所有洋基迷的希望，Jomboy還說他記憶最深刻的季後賽比賽就是這場... https://youtu.be/6dA-GjKhiWM

牛棚在比賽後段也爆炸了，某種程度上幫Girardi跟Burnett解套，最後洋基就以 3:10的巨大差距落敗，系列賽陷入1:3的極大劣勢。主砲Mark Teixeira也在跑壘時拉傷腿筋，洋基晉級之路看起來更加艱險。 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kulnMHnDQj8&t=1646s

10/19/10: CG TEX @ NYY Game 4 The Final Loss The Yankees rebounded a day later with a 7-2 win behind Sabathia and plenty of offense, including three homers. Back in Texas, the Bombers turned to Hughes with hopes of keeping them alive for a Game 7. With the Yankees tying the game at one in the fifth inning, Hughes trotted out and, like Burnett, got two outs and a man on before issuing an intentional walk, this time to Hamilton. The final pitch for Hughes on the evening went to Vlad Guerrero Sr., who lined a two-run double. Robertson came in and promptly allowed a two-run homer to Nelson Cruz, just about ending the series in a two-batter span. 第五戰Sabathia找回了王牌的架勢，鑽石打線也終於回神擊出了三支全壘打，最後洋基就以7:2扳回一城，將賽局打回阿靈頓。洋基只能期望年輕的Hughes能把賽局推向第七戰。第六戰的Hughes前四局只掉一分，洋基也在五局上半追平比數。可是跟第四戰的悲劇一樣，五局下半遊騎兵兩人出局一在壘，Hughes選擇保送當年的MVP Hamilton。下一棒的Vlad Guerrero Sr. 隨後打出了兩分打點二壘安打。接替Hughes上場的Robertson也沒辦法止血，Nelson Cruz的兩分全壘打擊沉了洋基隊最後的希望。 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueFNzMye1MI

10/20/10 CG: TEX@NYY Game 5 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ui7LvrR9b_Y&t=778s

10/22/10 CG: NYY@TEXGame 6 Afterward The Lee deal truly swung everything and might have hung over the Bombers for a couple seasons. Not only were they unable to repeat without the veteran southpaw, they then couldn’t reel him in during free agency. His wife said she was harassed at Yankee Stadium during the postseason, and he ultimately chose to accept a smaller offer to return to Philadelphia. (Reports also put the Rangers’ offer above the Yankees’ deal, but the mystery team Phillies made that moot.) The Yankees were one or two pitchers short of a title. With another reliever or just a quicker hook, they could have afforded to take out Burnett earlier in Game 4, or they could have held tight in Game 6. Another starter would have bumped Burnett entirely, even if it wasn’t Lee joining the Bombers. Compounding the issue was the Yankees' inability to get a big hit against Colby Lewis in Games 2 and 6. The journeyman put 16 men on over 13 2/3 innings but allowed just three to score, earning two victories over Hughes. Perhaps with the games in the Bronx, the Yankees could have poked across more runs, but the wild card team can’t claim homefield there. Cliff Lee的交易案摧毀了洋基的奪冠計畫，而且2010年季後賽時Lee的妻子在洋基球場被球迷辱罵，Lee從此恨透了洋基，最後拒絕洋基開的較高價碼加盟費城人。（有報導指出遊騎兵開出的合約價碼比洋基更高，但費城人成為黑馬球隊勝出。）即使沒換到Lee，如果洋基有多一個穩定的先發投手，或許他們就衛冕成功了。又或者他們多補進一個穩定的後援投手，第四戰時就可以早點換下Burnett，第六戰時也不會讓比分瞬間被拉開。另一個中前段先發就可以直接替換掉賽季表現糟糕的Burnett。另一個失敗原因是第二戰與第六戰時對陣Colby Lewis，他兩場比賽合計投了 13.2局。有16個洋基打者在他手上上壘，但只有三人跑回本壘得分。打線也在第四戰錯失了太多把比分拉開的機會。謎之音：感覺洋基每次被淘汰的原因都是先發不夠強還有缺少關鍵安打... 下一集：2011季後賽 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 123.193.7.182 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/NY-Yankees/M.1579711786.A.449.html ※ 編輯: lukemarley (101.12.101.77 臺灣), 01/23/2020 01:22:09
