世。 4月24日，Zachry就72岁了。
The Reds held a moment of silence in Zachry’s memory before Friday night’s
game against the Mets.
辛辛那提红人队对纽约大都会队的比赛前为Zachry默哀片刻。
A 6-foot-5 right-hander, Zachry was 69-67 with a 3.52 ERA in 10 major league
season with the Reds (1976-77), Mets (1977-82), Los Angeles Dodgers (1983-84)
and Philadelphia (1985).
Zachry生涯成绩为69胜67败、防御率3.52。
He went 14-7 with a 2.74 ERA in his first season and tied San Diego pitcher
Butch Metzger in the rookie award voting. Zachry beat Philadelphia at
Veterans Stadium in Game 2 of the NL Championship Series, then won Game 3 of
the World Series at Yankee Stadium as the Reds swept New York for their
second straight title.
他在新人球季以14胜7败、防御率2.74，与圣地牙哥教士队Butch Metzger一同获得国联新
人王。Zachry在国联冠军赛击退费城费城人队，然后在世界大赛对纽约洋基队赢得第三胜
，最后辛辛那提红人队横扫纽约洋基队，达成世界大赛冠军二连霸。
When the Mets sought to trade Seaver after the star pitcher got into a
dispute with team chairman M. Donald Grant, they struck a deal with
Cincinnati that brought them Zachry along with infielder Doug Flynn, rookie
outfielder Steve Henderson and outfield prospect Dan Norman.
当纽约大都会队明星投手Tome Seaver与纽约大都会队老板M. Donald Grant发生争吵时，
纽约大都会队与辛辛那提红人队达成交易，换来了Zachry、Doug Flynn、Steve
Henderson与Dan Norman。
“We weren’t going to replace Tom. No one could,” Flynn said in a statement
issued by the Mets. “We just stuck together and played as hard we could.”
Flynn说他们无法取代Tom（Seaver），Flynn在纽约大都会队的声明说：我们只是在一起
尽力打球。
Zachry went 10-6 with a 3.33 ERA in his first full season with the Mets,
starting 7-1 and earning his only All-Star selection.
Zachry在纽约大都会队第一个球季10胜6败，同年入选美国职棒明星赛。
“He doesn’t get the credit he deserves for his career,” Flynn said. “On
top of everything, he was the greatest teammate anyone could ever have.”
Flynn说Zachry应该更好，他是一个很棒的队友。
Zachry was born in Richmond, Texas, attended Richfield High School in Waco
and was selected by Cincinnati with the 454th pick in the 19th round of the
1970 amateur draft. He made his major league debut against Houston on April
11, 1976.
Zachry出生于德州，他在美国职棒选秀会被辛辛那提红人队以第19轮挑中，1976年4月11
日对休士顿太空人队生涯初登场。
His was 10-3 for the Mets at the halfway point of the 1978 season, when the
team was 34-47. He lost three straight decisions and when he allowed a
go-ahead single to Cincinnati’s George Foster on July 24 and was replaced
with reliever Kevin Kobel by manager Joe Torre, Zachry kicked a helmet in the
dugout, caught a spike on the steps and broke his left foot, an injury
diagnosed 10 days later ended his season.
他在1978年三连败后（7月9日至7月19日），7月24日因表现不佳被Joe Torre换下时，他
在休息室踢了一个头盔后摔断了脚，球季报销。
“I was mad at myself for throwing him three straight changeups,” said
Zachry, who earlier gave up a hit to Pete Rose, who tied Tommy Holmes’ NL
hitting streak record at 37 games.
Pete Rose于该场比赛打破Tommy Holmes的连续37场安打的国联纪录。
In addition to his son, Zachry is survived by daughter Meredith Knight. Josh
was a quarterback for Baylor from 2000-02 and Meredith an equestrian.
