This Is How Yu Darvish Was Tipping His Pitches in the World Series

Yu在世界大赛中的爆炸性表现让很多人惊讶. 有人猜说他是否有没有公开的伤势?也有人
猜他的球路是不是被太空人打者破解. SI记者Tom Verducci在winter meeting中跟一位不
具名的太空人球员谈到这问题:
According to a Houston player, the Astros often knew what Darvish was about
to throw by the way he brought the ball into his glove in the set position.
(Darvish pitches exclusively out of the stretch.) The player said it worked
like this: Darvish holds the ball at his side when he gets the sign from the
catcher. Whether he re-grips or not as he brings the ball into his glove was
the tip-off whether he was going to throw a slider/cutter or a fastball.
根据这名球员,太空人打者可以从Yu在投球前把球放进手套的动作猜出他的球路. Yu在看
捕手暗号时球是拿在侧身处,当他把球放进手套前如果他重新抓球的话代表他会投滑球或是
卡特;反之就是直球.
“We knew the first time we faced him [in Game 3],” the player said. “The
next time [in Game 7] it was mostly the same, but then it was more about just
having a great game plan going in. We knew he was going to try to go back to
his slider to find it. We had a great approach.”
那名球员说"我们在第三战遇上他的时候就发现这个特征了. 他在第七战时还是没改. 当
我们知道他的球路后就很容易调整攻击策略了"
现在这个祕密公开,就看Yu能不能改过来习惯了.
