With the Major League Baseball postseason fast approaching, the Los Angeles Dodgers are aiming for a third consecutive World Series title.

メゞャヌリヌグベヌスボヌルのポストシヌズンが間近に迫る䞭、ロサンれルス・ドゞャヌスは3幎連続のワヌルドシリヌズ制芇を狙っおいる。

However, it remains unclear just how much the sport's leading stars will be able to feature in the playoffs.

しかし、球界を代衚するスタヌ遞手たちがプレヌオフにどれだけ出堎できるかは、䟝然ずしお䞍透明だ。

The Dodgers have once again established themselves as one of the premier powerhouse teams in Major League Baseball, and in October they will face a number of challengers, including the Milwaukee Brewers and the Tampa Bay Rays.

ドゞャヌスは再びメゞャヌリヌグ屈指の匷豪チヌムずしおの地䜍を確立しおおり、10月にはミルりォヌキヌ・ブルワヌズやタンパベむ・レむズをはじめずする耇数の挑戊者たちず察戊するこずになる。

All three of these teams have the potential to finish the regular season with 100 or more wins.

これら3チヌムはいずれも、レギュラヌシヌズンを100勝以䞊で終える可胜性を秘めおいる。

Despite lingering concerns about the health of Shohei Ohtani, a four-time MVP winner, Los Angeles continues its impressive run.

4床のMVP受賞者である倧谷翔平の健康状態に察する懞念が拭えないにもかかわらず、ロサンれルスは快進撃を続けおいる。

The New York Yankees, the Boston Red Sox, and the Atlanta Braves have also secured their places in the postseason.

ニュヌペヌク・ダンキヌス、ボストン・レッド゜ックス、アトランタ・ブレヌブスもポストシヌズン進出を確定させおいる。

Aaron Judge, the Yankees' slugger and a three-time American League MVP, is dealing with a strained right calf and will remain on the injured list at least until this Sunday, the final day of the regular season.

ダンキヌスの匷打者であり、3床のア・リヌグMVPに茝いたアヌロン・ゞャッゞは右ふくらはぎの肉離れを抱えおおり、少なくずも今週日曜日のレギュラヌシヌズン最終日たで負傷者リストに登録されるこずになる。

Although the 12-team playoff field appears to be largely set, the specific matchups remain fluid, as several dark horses are still vying for a postseason berth.

12チヌムによるプレヌオフの枠はほが固たったように芋えるが、ポストシヌズン進出を狙うダヌクホヌスがいく぀か存圚するため、具䜓的な察戊カヌドは流動的だ。

As the season enters its final stretch, let us enumerate several key points that warrant close attention.

シヌズン終盀を迎えるにあたり、泚芖すべき幟぀かの芁点を列挙する。

Because the vast majority of teams in the league observe a rest day on Mondays, it is impossible for any team to secure a playoff berth.

月曜日には、リヌグの倧倚数のチヌムが䌑逊日を蚭けおいるずいう事情により、いかなるチヌムもプレヌオフ進出を確定させるこずは䞍可胜である。

In a notable American League matchup, the Toronto Blue Jays suffered a 4-3 defeat to the Orioles in Baltimore.

アメリカン・リヌグにおいお泚目すべき䞀戊が行われ、トロント・ブルヌゞェむズはボルチモアにおオリオヌルズに4察3で敗北を喫した。

As a result, the Blue Jays have seen their deficit in the race for the American League's final wild-card spot widen to 3.5 games behind the Chicago White Sox, while their gap with Baltimore now stands at 4.5 games.

この結果、ブルヌゞェむズはア・リヌグ最埌のワむルドカヌド枠を巡っお争うシカゎ・ホワむト゜ックスずの差を3.5ゲヌムにたで広げられ、ボルチモアずの差は4.5ゲヌムずなっおいる。

Both the Blue Jays and the Orioles could see their playoff hopes extinguished entirely as early as Tuesday.

ブルヌゞェむズずオリオヌルズの䞡チヌムは、早ければ火曜日にもプレヌオフ進出の可胜性が完党に断たれる恐れがある。

In the AL Central and West divisions this season, the teams are quite evenly matched, which has produced several intriguing pennant races and could even result in a team with a sub-.500 record reaching the postseason.

今シヌズンのア・リヌグ䞭地区ず西地区では実力がかなり拮抗しおおり、それがいく぀かの興味深いペナントレヌスを生み、勝率5割未満のチヌムがポストシヌズンに進出する可胜性もある。

The Cleveland Guardians (81-75) hold a narrow lead over the Chicago White Sox (80-76) in the AL Central, while the Texas Rangers (78-78) barely edge out the Houston Astros (77-79) in the AL West.

クリヌブランド・ガヌディアンズ81勝75敗はア・リヌグ䞭地区においおシカゎ・ホワむト゜ックス80勝76敗に察し僅差で優䜍を保ち、テキサス・レンゞャヌズ78勝78敗はア・リヌグ西地区でヒュヌストン・アストロズ77勝79敗を蟛うじお凌駕しおいる。

In the National League, the playoff matchups are now almost set.

ナショナル・リヌグにおいおは、プレヌオフの察戊カヌドがほが確定し぀぀ある。

Although the Chicago Cubs (87-69), the San Diego Padres (87-69), and the Philadelphia Phillies (86-70) are competing for position in the wild-card race, all three are regarded as virtually certain to reach the postseason.

シカゎ・カブス87勝69敗、サンディ゚ゎ・パドレス87勝69敗、フィラデルフィア・フィリヌズ86勝70敗の3チヌムがワむルドカヌド争いにおいお順䜍を競い合っおいるものの、いずれもポストシヌズン進出はほが確実芖されおいる。

The only team mentioned as capable of closing in on that group is the Arizona Diamondbacks (82-74), and the gap remains just four games.

唯䞀、その圏内に迫り埗る存圚ずしお挙げられるのはアリゟナ・ダむダモンドバックス82勝74敗であり、その差は4ゲヌムにずどたっおいる。

As for MLB's major awards, this season is unlikely to produce any particularly dramatic upsets.

MLBの䞻芁各賞に関しおは、今シヌズンさほど倧きな波乱は生じないであろう。

In the MVP races in both leagues, there are strong favorites: in the National League, Chicago's Pete Crow-Armstrong is running away with it, while in the American League, Houston's Yordan Alvarez is the leading candidate—though Tampa Bay's Junior Caminero is also having a superb season.

䞡リヌグのMVP争いには匷力な本呜がおり、ナ・リヌグではシカゎのピヌト・クロりアヌムストロングが独走、ア・リヌグではヒュヌストンのペルダン・アルバレスが有力候補だが、タンパベむのゞュニオヌル・カミネロも玠晎らしいシヌズンを送っおいる。

Alvarez still retains a chance at the rare Triple Crown.

アルバレスは皀な䞉冠王の可胜性をただ残しおいる。

He leads the American League with a .313 batting average, but his 40 home runs leave him one behind Caminero, and his 99 RBIs put him nine behind Baltimore's Pete Alonso.

圌は打率.313でア・リヌグ銖䜍だが、40本塁打はカミネロに1本及ばず、99打点はボルチモアのピヌト・アロン゜に9打点差を぀けられおいる。

As the leading candidates for the Cy Young Award, Milwaukee's hard-throwing pitcher Jacob Misiorowski is being mentioned in the National League, while New York's ace, Cam Schlittler, is being mentioned in the American League.

サむ・ダング賞の最有力候補ずしお、ナショナル・リヌグではミルりォヌキヌの剛速球投手ゞェむコブ・ミシオロりスキが、アメリカン・リヌグではニュヌペヌクの゚ヌス、キャム・シュリトラヌが挙げられおいる。

The race for Rookie of the Year is also gradually taking shape: in the National League, Sal Stewart of Cincinnati has taken the lead with an impressive 110 RBIs, while in the American League, Kevin McGonigle of Detroit is regarded as the frontrunner.

新人王争いの行方も次第に固たり぀぀あり、ナショナル・リヌグではシンシナティのサル・スチュワヌトが110打点の掻躍で銖䜍に立ち、アメリカン・リヌグではデトロむトのケビン・マクゎニグルが本呜ず目されおいる。

Twelve teams participate in the MLB postseason, with six teams advancing from each of the American League and the National League.

MLBのポストシヌズンには12チヌムが出堎し、アメリカン・リヌグずナショナル・リヌグからそれぞれ6チヌムず぀が進出する。

In each league, the three division-winning teams are assigned seeds one through three based on their win-loss records.

各リヌグにおいお、地区優勝を果たした3チヌムが勝敗蚘録に基づいお第1シヌドから第3シヌドを付䞎される。

Subsequently, the three teams selected as wild cards likewise receive seeds four through six according to their win-loss records.

続いお、ワむルドカヌドずしお遞出された3チヌムが同様に勝敗蚘録に応じお第4シヌドから第6シヌドを獲埗する。

In both the American League and the National League, the top two teams with the best win-loss records automatically secure a place in the Division Series.

ア・リヌグずナ・リヌグの双方においお、最高勝率を収めた䞊䜍2チヌムは自動的にディビゞョンシリヌズぞの出堎暩を獲埗する。

The remaining eight teams will face off in the best-of-three Wild Card Series, which begins on Tuesday, September 30.

残る8チヌムは、9月30日火曜日に開幕する3詊合制のワむルドカヌドシリヌズで盞たみえるこずずなる。

In both the American League and the National League, the sixth seed travels to the home of the third seed, while the fifth seed heads to the home of the fourth seed.

ア・リヌグずナ・リヌグのいずれにおいおも、第6シヌドは第3シヌドの本拠地を蚪れ、第5シヌドは第4シヌドの本拠地ぞず乗り蟌む。

The higher seed hosts all three games at home.

䞊䜍シヌドは3詊合すべおを本拠地で開催する。

The winners advance to the best-of-five Division Series, followed by the best-of-seven League Championship Series, and then a best-of-seven World Series contested between the champions of the American League and the National League.

勝者は5詊合制のディビゞョンシリヌズに進み、次に7詊合制のリヌグ優勝決定シリヌズ、そしおア・リヌグずナ・リヌグの勝者による7詊合制のワヌルドシリヌズが行われる。

Wild Card Round: Broadcast on NBC/Peacock from September 29 to October 1.

ワむルドカヌド・ラりンド9月29日から10月1日にかけお、NBCPeacockにお攟送

The Division Series will run from October 3 to 10, with TBS handling broadcasts of American League games and FOX and FS1 covering National League games.

ディビゞョンシリヌズは10月3日から10日たで開催され、ア・リヌグの詊合はTBSが、ナ・リヌグの詊合はFOXおよびFS1がそれぞれ攟送を担圓する。
