[...] Red Sox slugger David Ortiz stuck up for his pal and voiced disapproval
of his teammate hitting A-Rod in a game in which Boston squandered a three-run
lead and lost 9-6 to the New York Yankees.
"I didn't like it. I don't think it was the right thing to do,'' Ortiz told
USA TODAY Sports. "But we don't all think alike, and the guy who did it,
Dempster, is a great guy. It's not that I didn't think it was right because
Alex and I are friends, because once you cross the white lines, everyone's on
their own.
"But we've got Tampa right on our heels, and that pitch woke up a monster in
the Yankees' team at that moment. You saw how the game ended up. CC
(Sabathia) was throwing 91 (mph) and started throwing 96. Alex later hit one
way out there. You're talking about a good team that you can't wake up. But
we learn from our mistakes.''

Ortiz說,我不認為(砸人)是對的。但人各有想法,Dempster是個好人,而我也不是
因為我跟A-Rod是好朋友我才覺得他被砸不對。當你漠視規則而越界的當下,其他人
也不需要遵守遊戲規則了。而且這個觸身球四夫喚醒了沉睡的洋基(?!) 本來不該是
這樣的,我們需要從錯誤中學習。
心得:
Big Papi應該不會是紅襪下次作客洋基的犧牲品啦...希望不會
