According to Tigers manager Jim Leyland, he received two different Yankee
lineups in the late afternoon, the first one listing A-Rod hitting sixth and
playing third base. But then, a courier from the Yankee clubhouse brought a
second lineup to Leyland’s office – the one that was officially released
which omitted both A-Rod and Curtis Granderson and had Eric Chavez at third
base, hitting sixth, Brett Gardner in center field and Nick Swisher back in
right field after being benched the night before.
老虎教練Leyland今天收到兩份洋基的攻守名單 第一份寫了A-Rod的名字
但隨後送來的第二份 A-Rod和Granderson就被拉下名單
Joe Girardi explained the two-lineup mystery as a mistake on his part and not
a last-minute decision to bench A-Rod again.
Girardi說他只是一時筆誤 不是最後下決心把A-Rod板凳
“We talked about some different lineups during the day,” Girardi said, “
and when I handed the lineup to (third base coach Robbie Thompson), I didn’t
realize which one it was. It was actually a mistake on my part. We had people
in different spots. So I called over there (to Leyland) and told them we gave
them the wrong one.”
Girardi: 我們今天討論了幾條打線 但當我交上名單時 我沒注意到我寫進的是哪條
這是我的疏忽
