(From NEW YORK TIMES) The Yankees sent 12 hitters to the plate and scored seven runs in the seventh inning last night. The Seattle Mariners changed pitchers twice in the inning. That meant a lot of time sitting on the bench for the Yankees’ No. 1 starter, Chien-Ming Wang. 洋基在昨天对水手七局上的一轮猛攻，打了十二支安打跑回七分。水手在七局时换了两 名投手都无法挡住攻势。这样长时间的进攻时间代表洋基的投手要在板凳上休息很久。 第一号先发，王．建．民。 But with a 10-run lead, the Yankees still sent Wang to the mound to work the eighth in a 12-3 victory at Yankee Stadium. He needed 11 warm-up pitches to get loose, and his first pitch puttered in at 89 miles an hour. 尽管有十分的领先，洋基还是在第八局让小王继续登板。他用十一个球先热身，把筋热 开，第一球丢了89miles “That’s almost a changeup for him,” the pitching coach, Ron Guidry, said. 「那大概是变速球吧，」古锥仔说 After Jeremy Reed grounded out on the next pitch, Guidry sprang from the dugout to meet with Wang on the mound. Catcher Jorge Posada became Wang’s protector. 在Reed被解决後，古锥仔从休息室出来，走向小王。Posada变成了小王的保护者。 “I was not going to let him pitch,” said Posada, who homered twice. “The two pitches he threw, something about it just didn’t look right. He told me he felt tight.” 「我不是上去叫他撑下去的，」敲两支hr的Posada说 「他丢的那两球，我就感觉怪怪的。他和我说他有点紧」 A few hours after Roger Clemens announced that he would get a cortisone shot for his inflamed right elbow, Wang left the game with stiffness in his lower back. Wang has six days off before his next start, Tuesday in Toronto, and he said he was not worried about making it. 小王带着僵硬的下背部离开球场後，老克就宣布他会接受Cortisone的注射来减轻他因为 右肘发炎带来的疼痛。小王在六天休息後会在蓝鸟主场对决蓝鸟，他并不会担心。 Wang’s injury was not the only one the Yankees sustained while piling up 20 hits and restoring their two-game lead over Seattle in the American League wild-card race. Alex Rodriguez who sent his 46th home run of the season roughly 10 rows into the third deck in left field in the sixth inning, hurt his right ankle while sliding into third base in the seventh inning. (小王不是惟一一个有伤的，A-rod在七局时也伤到右脚ankle) Mariners third baseman Adria'n Beltre landed on Rodriguez, whose X-rays came back negative. Rodriguez said his ankle was swollen. (说一下A-rod为什麽会伤，没说小王的不翻) “It was a little scary,” he said. “But let’s see how it feels in the morning. It feels a little sore right now.” (A-rod你这麽壮不会有事啦 我脚酸还不是照打球) A crowd of 52,487 — plus another frisky squirrel perched atop the right field foul pole — watched Bobby Abreu, Robinson Cano' and Posada collect four hits apiece to lift Wang to his 17th victory, tied with Boston’s Josh Beckett for the most in the majors. 全场52487名观众，加上一支在右外野标竿上的松鼠，一起见证了阿布，Cano, Posada共击 出四支安打并将小王的胜场推向十七场，与SOX的Beckett同为联盟第一 Wang allowed a run and five hits over seven and a third innings, getting grounders for his first six outs and inducing double-play grounders to end the fifth, sixth and seventh innings. 小王投七点一局，被击出五支安打失一分，并让他前六个出局数都是滚地球出局。并用双 杀结束五、六、七局 Before Beltre’s homer in the seventh, the closest Seattle came to scoring was when Hideki Matsui threw out Beltre at the plate in the fifth. Posada deftly gathered a short hop, shifted his position and tagged Beltre’s foot just in time. (说明水手在Beltre之前最好的得分机会被松井的外野长传阻杀在本垒，没小王不翻) The Yankees’ barrage in the bottom of the seventh made it 11-1 and encouraged Seattle to empty its crowded bench. The Mariners, who have 35 active players, used 18 position players and 6 pitchers in the game.an hour. (说明洋基七局的大局，水手怎麽样烧牛棚。又不是烧我家的 干我屁事 不翻) The Yankees stuck with Wang, who had thrown only 84 pitches. Manager Joe Torre said he was not worried that the long inning would affect Wang because Guidry had checked with him before the eighth. 小王投了八十四球後，Torre还是决定让他投。他说他并不担心长局数的投球会对小王造成 影响，因为古锥仔在八局前已经检查了他的手了。 “He’s not going to pitch until a week from today in Toronto,” Torre said. “He had a low pitch count, and he talked to him a couple of times during the inning and Wang didn’t think it was going to be an issue.” 「他在下场对蓝鸟之前的这个星期都不会上场投球，」Torre说 「他投球数不多，而古锥仔已经在攻守交换时和小王提过了，小王不觉得这是个问题！」 Wang (17-6) said he had never had a back problem before, but nobody seemed worried that the discomfort would linger, especially with the long layoff awaiting him.tight.” 小王(17-6)说他从来没有背部的问题。但是似乎没有人担心他的这个不适会一直下去，尤 其是他将有一个长时间的休息。 “He’s got plenty enough time to get ready,” Guidry said. 「他有很长的一段时间来准备干爆蓝鸟，」古锥仔说 The Yankees had better hope so, because beyond Wang and Andy Pettitte, their rotation is shaky. The rookie Phil Hughes, who pitches tonight, has won only once in six starts since coming off the disabled list.issue.” 洋基最好赶快祷告，因为除了小王，老派之外，洋基的先发很抖。今晚先发的Hughes，在 从伤兵名单上出来後投了六场只赢了一场。 Hughes was optimistic yesterday because the Class AAA pitching coach Dave Eiland, who tutored him in the minors, supervised his past two bullpen sessions. Hughes said they worked on smoothing his mechanics by not rushing his delivery.me. (说明Hughes的练投情况，你姓Hughes不姓Wang，不翻) Coaches have encouraged Hughes to use all his pitches and attack the strike zone. Hughes has been too predictable for hitters because he has not thrown enough changeups, the pitch that helped him hold the Texas Rangers without a hit into the seventh inning May 1. (说明Hughes在投球的时候想太多，你又不是想我们家小王，不翻) “It’s not my second-best pitch or even my third-best, but it’s a pitch I definitely need to show,” Hughes said. “It’s not a swing-and-miss pitch, but it’s a pitch to get them off my fastball. In Texas, I threw three in the first inning, and that set the tempo. They weren’t really able to sit on one pitch. (Hughes说明他的投球策略，不想翻) “It’s something I’ll concentrate on, but the No. 1 thing is strike one. After that, I can kind of play around a little bit.” if Hughes can come even close to the sharpness he showed in Texas, the Yankees will gladly take it. (最後都不是在说小王，我干嘛翻？) -- 以上，请鞭 --
