Although he spent 15 seasons in Major League Baseball, Berg was never more than an average player, and was better known for being "the brainiest guy in baseball"than for anything he accomplished in the game. The Bergs were never religiously observant, although being Jewish did contribute to Moe's sense of being an outsider in mid-twentieth century America.Casey Stengel once described Berg as "the strangest man ever to play baseball." Morris "Moe" Berg (生於1902年3月2日 纽约--卒於1972年5月29日 新泽西) 是一位美国职业棒球员，而後於二战期间在战略行政部门当一位间谍。虽然他在MLB度过 了15个球季，Berg的成绩却从未优於一般普通合格球员。比起他在球场的表现，相形之下 更为人所知的是其"棒球界最聪明的人"此赞誉。Berg家族从未是虔诚笃信的，身为一位 犹太人，Moe像是20世纪中叶美国的一名外来客。Casey Stengel曾经描述Berg为 "棒球界最奇特的人。" A graduate of Princeton University and Columbia Law School, Berg spoke several languages and regularly read 10 newspapers a day. His reputation was fueled by his successful appearances as a contestant on the radio quiz show Information, Please!. Berg answered questions about the derivation of words and names from Greek and Latin, historical events in Europe and the Far East, and ongoing international conferences. 作为一位 普林斯顿大学 和 哥伦比亚法学院 的毕业生，Berg可以说数种语言，另外每天 读10来份报纸。他在广播测验节目 "请回答?"中优异的表现使他声名大噪。Berg 回答了 有关於希腊和拉丁字汇词的衍生和名字的来历种种问题，还有欧洲和远东的历史事件，以 及当时进行的国际会议。 As an agent of the United States government, Berg traveled to Yugoslavi gather intelligence on resistance groups the government was considering supporting. He was then sent on a mission to Italy, where he interviewed various physicists concerning the German nuclear program. After the war, Berg was occasionally employed by the OSS's successor, the Central Intelligence Agency, but was unemployed by the mid-1950s. He spent the last two decades of his life without work, living with various siblings. 身为美国政府的代理人，Berg为了获取一些政府考虑资助的反抗团体情报，而旅行至南 斯拉夫。随後一份命令将他派遣至义大利，探访各领域的物理学家有关於德国的核子计 划。在战争之後，Berg由OSS的後继单位 中央情报局 间或聘雇，但在50年代中期是处於 失业状态。在他度过的最後二十年生命里是没有工作的，分别与不同的亲人同居。 Spying for the U.S. Government 为美国政府侦察 With the attack on Pearl Harbor by the Japanese on December 7,1941,the United States was thrust into World War II. To do his part for the war effort, Berg accepted a position with Nelson Rockefeller's Office of Inter-American Affairs on January 5, 1942. Nine days later, his father, Bernard, died.During the summer of 1942, Berg screened the footage he shot of Tokyo Bay for intelligence officers of the United States military. The film may or may not have helped Lieutenant Colonel Jimmy Doolittle plan his famous Doolittle Raid. 在日本军於1941年12月7日偷袭珍珠港後，美国被迫加了入第二次世界大战。为了战事 尽份心力，Berg於1942年1月5日在 Nelson Rockefeller's美国事理部门任职。九天後， 他的父亲Bernard去世。1942 年的夏天期间，Berg为美军情报官员侦查拍摄、测量东京湾 的英尺长度。短片或许帮助了 Jimmy Doolittle中校 计划他的着名 Doolittle 突袭。 On August 2, 1943, Berg accepted a position with the Office of Strategi Services for a salary of $3,800 a year. In September, he was assigned to the Secret Intelligence branch of the OSS and given a place at the OSS Balkans desk. In this role, he parachuted into Yugoslavia to evaluate the various resistance groups operating against the Nazis to determine which was the strongest. He talked to both Draza Mihajlovic and Josip Broz and reviewed their forces, deciding that Josip Broz had the stronger and better supported group. His evaluations were used to help determine the amount of support and aid to give each group.In late 1943, Berg was assigned to Project Larson, an OSS operation set up by OSS Chief of Special Projects John Shaheen. The stated purpose of the project was to kidnap Italian rocket and missile specialists out of Italy and bring them to the U.S. However, there was another project hidden within Larson called Project AZUSA with the goal of interviewing Italian physicists to see what they knew about Werner Heisenberg and Carl Friedrich von Weizsacker. 在1943年8月2日，Berg在战略行政机关任职，薪资一年$3,800。9月，被分配至 OSS的 机密情报分部以及在 OSS巴尔干办公室得到了一个职位。对此任务，他跳伞进入南斯拉夫 评估各类型反Nazi的抵抗团体，以确定其中何者是最有规模的。他与Draza Mihajlovic 还有 Josip Broz两人分别商谈以及探讨他们的战力，选定Josip Broz是较佳支持对象。 他的评估协助分派各个团体的援助多寡。1943年末，Berg被指配至OSS主管John Shaheen 企划的Larson行动：目的是绑架义境外的义籍火箭飞弹专家带入美国。然而，在 Larson 行动内有一个隐藏计画；名为AZUSA。目标是探访义大利物理学家，看他们知道有什麽情报 关於 Werner Heisenberg 和Carl Friedrich von Weizsacker。 From May to mid-December, Berg hopped around Europe interviewing physic and trying to convince several to leave Europe and work in America. At the beginning of December news about Heisenberg giving a lecture in Zurich, Switzerland reached the OSS, and Berg was assigned the task of attending the lecture and determining "if anything Heisenberg said convinced him the Germans were close to a bomb." If Berg came to the conclusion that the Germans were close, he had orders to shoot Heisenberg; Berg determined that the Germans were not close. During his time in Switzerland, Berg became close friends with the physicist Paul Scherrer. Berg returned to the United States on April 25, 1945, and resigned from the Strategic Services Unit, the successor to the OSS, in August. He was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom on October 10, but he rejected the award on December 2. His sister later accepted it on his behalf after he died. 自5月到12月中，Berg在欧洲各地探访物理学家们；并设法说服其离开欧洲到美国研究。 12月初 OSS获知 Heisenberg将在瑞士苏黎士演讲的消息，Berg则被指派参与听讲的任务 ；并且判定"Heisenberg的演说内容中是否使他确信德国已经接近完成核弹。" 如果Berg 得出此结论，他被授权命令枪杀Heisenberg；然而Berg确定答案是否定的。在他处於瑞士 期间，Berg变成物理学家Paul Scherrer的好友。Berg在1945年4月25日返美，8月向OSS 的後者--战略行政单位请辞。他在10月10日被授予了总统自由勋章，但他在12月2日婉拒 此殊荣。後来他的姐妹於其亡故後，做为Berg的代表人接受了奖章。 After his playing career ended, Berg was a Boston Red Sox coach in 1940 and 1941. 在Berg结束球员生涯後，於1940、1941年担任波士顿红袜队教练一职。 後记﹕ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Moe Berg 生涯待过 Brooklyn Robins (1) Chicago White Sox (5) Cleveland Indians (1) Washington Senators(3) 以及 Boston Red Sox (5) G H HR RBI BB SO SB AVG 663 441 6 206 78 113 11 .243 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2007/10/02 晨SD vs COL大概是我看过最精彩的比赛 至於 第2节08:10~09:00 行政学 那是什麽东西 可以吃吗? 第3节09:10~10:00 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --
