Have no fear, good citizens of the world, there is nothing to be alarmed about.
Sure, you may have turned on a Twins game sometime in the last week and
noticed some bearded individual striding to the plate under Joe Mauer's name.
各位奉公守法的好公民：莫慌張，莫害怕。也許你們當中有些人上禮拜轉到雙城隊的比賽
，然後注意到有個滿臉鬍子的老兄頂著Joe Mauer的名號走向壘包。

老公：老婆，我們家電視螢幕怎麼怪怪的？
老婆：都你在看我哪知啊？
You may have thought about alerting the authorities to the imposter in their
midst. You may even have considered running for the nearest 1950s bomb shelter
because clearly the invasion of the pod people had begun. I mean, yes, beards
have spread across Major League faces like an invasive disease, but surely
Mauer and his corn-fed farm boy sideburns would be spared, right?
也許你試圖警告相關單位他們當中有人打著Mauer的名號招搖撞騙；也可能試圖躲進離你家
最近的50年代防空洞，像是躲外星人進攻地球。對啦，蓄鬍已經如瘟疫在大聯盟蔓延。不
過Mauer這個吃玉米長大的農村囝仔跟他的鬢角應該能逃過一劫...吧？
Not so much. Here are the three eras of Mauer
(Proto-Mauer, Golden Age Mauer, Post-Modern Mauer):
並沒有。以下是Mauer的三個時代：上古時期Mauer、黃金時期Mauer和後現代Mauer

But what caused this? Was Mauer trying to give himself a bad-boy image? Did he
want to market his own perfume, Eau de Ice Fishing? Was he trying to cover up
a poorly planned late-night face tattoo?
但是究竟原因為何？Mauer試圖製造壞孩子的形象嗎？還是他要代言自家品牌香水
「Eau de 冰上垂釣」呢？又或者只是想把某天深夜一時衝動刺在臉上的刺青遮起來？
No, this is Mauer we're talking about. As the first baseman told MLB.com's
Rhett Bollinger earlier this year, he grew out the beard for the most practical
purposes: he thought it would be good protection from the cold Minnesota April.
And being practical is the opposite of trendy.
都不是，你以為我們在討論是誰，是Mauer耶！Mauer今年初告訴MLB.com的Rhett Bolliger
，他留鬍子的原因可是非常實際：鬍子會是他在冷吱吱的明尼蘇達四月天的一道屏障。
看來Mauer還是和時尚沾不上邊。
