简单翻译一下文意，就不逐字翻了。
It might not be a huge deal one week from now, but it’s certainly a
noteworthy event when one teammate blatantly disrespects another teammate in
plain sight of the fans and media. It then becomes even more noteworthy when
the disrespected teammate just so happens to be a future Hall of Famer, and
perhaps the most well respected man currently in the game.
这本来不会是什么太严重的事情啦，只是刚好被呛的是一位未来名人堂球员，
所以值得关注一下。
According to Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News, that was the
uncomfortable scenario that played out just a couple hours before the
Yankees-Royals game at Kauffman Stadium on Saturday night.
Here are the details, according to what he witnessed:
Joba Chamberlain and Mariano Rivera exchanged tense words in the dugout
before Saturday night’s game, as Chamberlain took exception to Rivera
instructing him to quiet down while the closer chatted with reporters about
an emotional event he had held earlier in the day with several local families.
“Don’t ever shush me again,” Chamberlain told Rivera in full view of
reporters and fans.
事情是发生在当Mo正在跟媒体记者聊天的时候，Joba也在一旁大声讲话。
Mo觉得Joba讲话太大声会影响到他们，所以就叫Joba小声一点。
此时Joba便在记者跟球迷面前对Mo说：不准再对我"嘘"！
Now you're probably wondering what Rivera said to illicit such a response.
According to Feinsand:
“Joba! Yo! Bro!” Rivera shouted. “Shhh. Stop it.”
See, I can almost understand how being publicly "shushed" can rub a person
the wrong way, but I can also picture Chamberlain being extra loud just for
the purpose of getting some kind of response out of anybody who's paying
attention. Not that that's at all what he was doing. I wasn't there. But
Feinsand certainly hinted at it by writing that Chamberlain was shouting into
stands while standing by the dugout railing, and only seemed to get louder as
Rivera indicated he was causing a distraction.
I also have a tough time believing Rivera would initiate such an exchange
just to be a jerk. Either Chamberlain was being disruptive, or he has a
history of being disruptive, and Rivera decided to nip it so he could fulfill
his commitments to the media.
Mo当时是对Joba说：唷，Joba。兄弟！嘘，先别吵。
几乎可以理解当你如果当众被这样"嘘"你会有多不爽。也能想像Joba当下这样大声讲话
是为了引起某些人的注意力。据在场的人表示，Joba是在跟看台上的家人讲话。
我能够相信Mo不会只是因为想当个烂货就故意去"嘘"Joba，他当下一定是觉得被干扰到。
Here's another thing. Chamberlain told Rivera that he was actually yelling to
family members in the stands, and that he doesn't get to see his family as
often as Rivera talks to the media. That's obviously true, but does that give
him a right to be a pain in the backside? Also, why must his interaction with
family come in shouting form at the ballpark, and why did it get louder when
Rivera first asked him to tone it down?
I'm trying to see things from Chamberlain's point of view. I really am. But I
just don't understand what would be going through his mind.
He didn't offer many clues, either, when asked about the incident after the
game.
Joba还跟Mo说：我见到我家人的机会比你被采访的机会来得少多了。但这难道就足以构成
他在后面大小声的理由吗？而且为啥一定要用这种大吼的方式来跟家人对话，甚至在Mo
希望他小声的时候反而喊得更大声呢？
我试图站在Joba的立场想，但我完全搞不懂。毕竟他没有多说太多。
Asked after the game about the exchange, Chamberlain said, “I’m not talking
about it.” Chamberlain said he hadn’t spoken with Rivera since the spat.
Asked whether he felt the two needed to talk, Chamberlain sniped, “That’s
between me and Mo.”
Rivera was far less snippy about the situation, although he seemed surprised
that Chamberlain had barked at him in such a public setting.
“It’s amazing,” Rivera said before confirming that he and Chamberlain had
not spoken since. “We’ll take care of it. We’re grownups and I know better
than that. We’ll take care of that.”
赛后，Joba被问到关于这件插曲。Joba只说：这是我跟Mo之间的事。
而Mo则觉得有点惊讶Joba当下会这样回他，但他也说：我们都是大人，我们会好好处理。
This situation will blow over quickly because Mariano Rivera will personally
make sure that happens. With that in mind, I can already feel the venom from
fans who are angry this incident is getting any play at all.
Sorry, folks, that's kinda how it works when you present a story to the media
on a silver platter. Had Joba Chamberlain exercised a little better judgment,
then it wouldn't be a story. For now, though, it's a story. Right up until
the point when it isn't.
我相信这件事会很快落幕，因为Mo不会放任不管。我相信球迷之中一定会有人很肚烂，
但这就是媒体记者们对于这种事件的反应。如果Joba的处理方式成熟点，
就不会搞得像是个抓马一样。但现在这就是个抓马，直到没人想去管他为止。
