Cubs GM Hendry, Pujols say hug no big deal
小熊总管Hendry和Pujols说：抱一下又不会死
CHICAGO (AP)—Cubs general manager Jim Hendry brushed off the hubbub over a
hug with Cardinals’ star Albert Pujols before Tuesday night’s series opener.
Pujols, the Cardinals’ superstar first baseman, could be a prized free agent
after the season. Hendry said the greeting had nothing to do with business
and the two simply discussed their families.
“I have a good relationship with Albert,” Hendry said. “We’d have that if
he wasn’t the best player in the world. I told you guys in spring training I
wasn’t going to be any different to him than I have been in the last eight
or nine years. Great guy, great player.”
周二晚间比赛之前，小熊总管Jim Hendry跳出来澄清，关于拥抱红雀明星Albert Pujols
的那件事。Pujols，红雀的神，本赛季结束后可能会是最贵的自由球员。Hendry 提到打
招呼无关生意，我们只不过闲话家常了一下而已。
Hendry表示：‘我和Albert交情不错。假设他以前在场上成绩不是最优秀的，我们仍然很
合得来。之前在春训时就告诉过你们，我对他不会改变任何看法，而且跟过去8、9年一样
依然认为他是人品好，态度佳。’
Pujols told the St. Louis Post Dispatch the hug was much ado over nothing. It
was just a greeting between two people who respect each other.
“He’s on the other side. I’m on our side. I just think it’s kind of
ridiculous,” he said.
The Cubs’ current first baseman, Carlos Pena, is playing under a one-year,
$10 million contract.
Pujols告诉圣路易派遣报，那拥抱有啥好大惊小怪，不过是互敬双方做一下问候而已。
他表示：‘他挺他家球队，我挺我家球队。我认为你们想像力丰富成这样，也太荒谬了
吧。’
小熊目前的一垒手是Carlos Pena，不过只签一年，一千万的合约。
