一垒的位置

Imagine the farthest star to the left – Alpheratz – as the third-base star.

想像三垒位置是左边最遥远的星星壁宿二，从一垒位置星连线到壁宿二指向的位置大概的就是仙女座星系。

先行离垒：跑垒者从所在垒向下一垒方向跑动所达到的位置

Spot last night for the first time since June 30, Abreu came up with men on base four times, and drove in at least one run on three of those occasions.

阿伯昨晚是自6月18日以来首次回到第三棒的位置，他昨晚在垒上有人的状况下上场四次，其中有三次至少打回一分。

Manuel went so far as to say,"I was hoping something like that would happen for him to get a feel for it again," and his fingers weren't crossed -- or were they, that nothing would happen to Reyes."For us to be the kind of team we can be in our ballpark to have a switch-hitter third, for RBIs and getting into scoring position ... that's big."

Manuel之后说："我希望他能走过这一难关，重新找回感觉，"说这些话时，他的手没有合什——或许有，不过这对Reyes没有影响："对我们这种球队来说，有一个左右开弓的打者能打出三垒安打，让队友得分，让自己去到得分位置……都是很有价值的。"

Cabrera is, at least, an ideal fourth outfielder. He is an above-average runner and defender with a well-above-average arm, plus he is a switch-hitter with a good eye. Last year he capably filled in for a stretch and did it with infectious enthusiasm.

Cabrera是个理想中的第四外野手，有著中上程度的跑垒及防守能力，也有著一副强肩，更是个拥有优异选球能力的左右开弓打者，去年球季他适时填补了球队的空缺，对比赛也展现出了极具感染力的热情，唯一让他还无法站上先发位置的疑虑，就是Cabrera是否能继续提升自己的power，他能办到吗？

One pitch after Sabathia picked off Robinson Cano at first, he left a changeup a bit too high that Cabrera belted over the leftfield wall for his fifth home run (in only 79 at-bats), tying Jason Giambi for the team lead.

在CC抓到Cano盗垒之后的一球，他将一个变速球投高了，牛奶把这球击出左外野的全垒打墙。这是他本季第5支全垒打(在短短的79个打席中)，也与Giambi并列在球队的领先位置。

There aren't a host of top-flight second basemen available -- Luis Castillo of the Mets and Kaz Matsui of the Rockies head the list -- but second base is a position more readily defined by defense than offense.

如果Cano转任三垒手，要去另外找一位二垒手不是那麼难---大都会的Luis Castillo和落矶的松井稼头央是首先可以考虑的----但这样二垒的位置就防守大於进攻了。

Lefty batters also do better at the plate: they do better against right-handed pitchers and stand a precious step or two closer to first base, advantages that sluggers from Ty Cobb and Stan Musial to Ted Williams and Barry Bonds have clearly used to their benefit.

左撇子击球手在本垒打中同样表现出众，他们的本垒打比右撇子球员打的更出色，而更可贵的是，由于他们是左撇子，他们所站的位置要比普通球手更靠近第一垒，一些棒球场上的重击手，从Ty Cobb和Stan Musial到Ted Williams和Barry Bonds，都把这一优势发挥得恰到好处。

G9 p( _ S The Yankees had 17 hits and drew five walks but left 16 runners on base and were 4-for-18 with runners in scoring position. They loaded the bases with one out in the 11th but Hideki Matsui struck out on three pitches and Robinson Cano grounded out against lefthander Steve Kline. In the fifth, Cano grounded into a double play with runners on first and third and one out.

R( X3 M， h； H2 x5 vwww.wangfans.com 洋基打了17支安打，获得5次保送，却留下16个残垒，当跑者站上得分位置时18个打数只有4支安打，第11局在1出局时他们攻占满垒，但大松井3球就领到一张老K，坎诺对左投克莱Steve Kline的球打出滚地球，结果出局，第9局在1出局1、3垒有人时，坎诺击出滚地双杀打。

But we don't care about Battlegrounds.

但我们并不在乎沙场中的显露。

Ah! don't mention it, the butcher's shop is a horror.

啊！不用提了。提到肉，真是糟透了。
