Time to change: Ichiro in the three hole
URLﾘﾝｸ(www.examiner.com)
私は彼を３番に一年固定すれば２０本塁打できると考えている。問題はそうなると２００安打が危うくなることだ。
２００安打はイチローと、彼を熱心に応援する日本人のファンたちにとってとても重要なことなのだ。
しかし野球はチームスポーツだ。個人の記録のためにやってるわけではない。勝敗をかけて力を尽くした後で
結果的に数字もついてくるものなのだ。勝利から焦点がブレることは時々あっても、最終的にはチームが勝つとが全てなのだ。
I think he could hit 20 home runs in that third spot for a full season. The problem is he may not
reach 200 hits because he will be required to do different things than in the leadoff spot.
Two hundred hits is a big deal for him and to his devoted Japanese fans. He's going for the
Major League record this season for most consecutive 200-hit seasons with nine. But this is a team game.
It's not about individual achievements. You add up those numbers after the game is decided.
The focus of winning gets sidetracked at times but it doesn't change. It's still all about winning.
