In the pivotal third game of the National League Division Series against the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday night, manager Dave Roberts reshuffled the Los Angeles Dodgers' batting order, moving designated hitter Shohei Ohtani down to the fifth spot.

在週二晚間國聯分區系列賽對陣亞特蘭大勇士的關鍵第三戰中,總教練戴夫·羅伯茲調整了洛杉磯道奇的打線,將指定打擊大谷翔平移至第五棒。

Roberts indicated that this adjustment was a deployment devised for a single game, intended to enable the Dodgers to adopt a markedly different approach when facing the Braves' left-hander Chris Sale.

羅伯茲指出,此番調整係針對單一賽事所為之部署,旨在使道奇於迎戰勇士左投克里斯·塞爾之際,得以採取迥異之應對策略。

On August 26, when Sale shut out Yamamoto Yoshinobu and the Dodgers 1–0, Ohtani Shohei went hitless in four at-bats, striking out twice.

8月26日,塞爾以1比0完封山本由伸與道奇隊之際,大谷翔平四打數盡墨,遭三振兩次。

Looking at his career record against Sale, Ohtani has amassed just three hits in 15 at-bats, with no home runs and one RBI.

綜觀其生涯與塞爾之交鋒紀錄,大谷累計15打數僅擊出3支安打,全壘打掛零,進帳1分打點。

With the best-of-five series tied at one game apiece, Roberts slotted Mookie Betts into the leadoff spot and Freddie Freeman into the second spot on Tuesday night; the fifth spot, meanwhile, marked the lowest position Ohtani had occupied in the batting order since he played for the Angels in 2020.

在這場五戰三勝的系列賽戰成1比1平手之際,羅伯茲於週二晚間將穆奇·貝茲排入第一棒、弗萊迪·弗里曼排入第二棒;而第五棒則是大谷自2020年效力天使以來所處的最低棒次。

"We are all well aware that Sale is by no means an easy opponent," Roberts said.

「我們都深知塞爾絕非易與之輩,」羅伯茲說道。

"Nevertheless, I believe the hitters at the top of the order will have considerable opportunities to reach base, and I do foresee moments when the game will extend all the way to Ohtani's at-bat."

「然而,我認為前段棒次的打者握有相當可觀的上壘契機,而我確實預見某些時刻,戰局將一路延展至大谷的打席之中。」

On Sunday evening, in the game in which the Braves edged their opponents 3-2 in Los Angeles to level the series, the left-handed-hitting Ohtani batted second.

週日晚間,勇士於洛杉磯以3比2力克對手、將系列賽扳平之役,左打的大谷擔綱第二棒。

Roberts stated that he had conferred with Ohtani on Monday evening regarding the adjustment to the batting order, and described the four-time MVP as being "fully understanding."

羅伯茲表示,他於週一晚間與大谷就打線調整一事進行了磋商,並稱這位四屆MVP「完全理解」。

Roberts added: "Ohtani said to me, 'I had been planning to come see you in September, and I suggested, why not entrust me with the responsibility of batting seventh?' I am of the view that he is willing to do anything that benefits the team. That is why I feel quite at ease with today's lineup arrangement. This is not an indication of the direction things will take in the future; it pertains solely to today."

羅伯茲復言:「大谷嘗謂:『本擬九月造訪,建言何不委我以第七棒之責?』竊以為,凡有助於球隊者,彼皆願為之。故余於今日之調度甚感愜意。此非未來走向之徵兆,僅就今日而言耳。」

During the regular season, Ohtani posted a batting average of .275, 30 home runs, and 81 RBIs; over the first two games of the series, he has gone 2-for-8 with two strikeouts.

大谷於例行賽繳出打擊率.275、30支全壘打、81分打點之成績;系列賽前兩戰累計8打數2安打,並吞下2次三振。

Plagued by chronic ailments in his right biceps and left knee, Ohtani languished on the injured list for two weeks before making his return to action in the final five games of the regular season.

大谷因右二頭肌與左膝的痼疾纏身,於傷兵名單中蟄伏兩週後,在例行賽最後五場比賽中復出亮相。

Over those final five contests, he went 5-for-21 at the plate, a tally that included one extra-base hit, while also striking out eight times and drawing a single walk.

他在這最後五場賽事中,二十一打數擊出五支安打,其中包含一支長打,另吞下八次三振,獲得一次保送。

Roberts admitted that while Ohtani was striving to regain his feel at the plate, he remained indiscriminately receptive to bad pitches, and that "until he demonstrates some measure of restraint," pitches outside the strike zone will continue to be thrown his way.

羅伯茲坦承,大谷在力圖重拾打擊手感之際,始終對壞球來者不拒,並且「在他展現出若干克制力之前」,好球帶外的球仍將持續朝他招呼而來。

Roberts indicated that he does not expect Ohtani to bat fifth in Game 4 on Wednesday against Braves right-hander Tyler Mahle.

羅伯茲指出,他並不預期大谷將於週三迎戰勇士右投泰勒·馬赫的第四戰中擔綱第五棒。

"I simply think this gives us our best opportunity today to beat the Braves, to match up against Sale, and to face whatever pitchers they bring in after him," Roberts said.

「我僅是認為,這賦予了我們今日最為可觀的契機,得以擊敗勇士、與塞爾抗衡,並迎戰他們在塞爾之後所將推出的投手,」羅伯茲說道。

"I'm thoroughly satisfied with this arrangement."

「我對這般安排深感滿意。」

Roberts stated that this adjustment to the batting order "does not stem from any lack of confidence in any player, but rather from a focus on which configuration can create the best opportunity for us to win today.

羅伯茲表示,此番打線調整「並非源於對任何球員信心之匱乏,而毋寧是著眼於何種配置能為我們今日締造最佳的取勝契機。

And in a short series, this is precisely the mindset that every member must possess."

而於短期系列賽中,這正是每一位成員所必須具備的心態。」

Ohtani is by no means the only high-profile hitter mired in a struggle in this series, or indeed throughout the postseason.

大谷絕非此系列賽乃至季後賽中唯一深陷掙扎的高知名度打者。

Braves slugger Ronald Acuña Jr. has managed just three hits in eighteen postseason at-bats, with no home runs to his name, and went two-for-nine over the first two games of the series.

勇士重砲小羅納德·阿庫尼亞於季後賽十八打數僅擊出三支安打,全壘打掛零,系列賽前兩戰九打數兩安打。

Atlanta manager Walt Weiss did not remove Acuña from the No. 2 spot in the batting order, but in a late pregame lineup adjustment he shifted him from right field to designated hitter.

亞特蘭大總教練華特·魏斯並未將阿庫尼亞調離打線第二棒之席位,惟於賽前較晚的打線調整中,將其自右外野移防至指定打擊。

Lane Thomas, meanwhile, entered the lineup to man right field.

萊恩·湯瑪斯則進入打線,鎮守右外野。

"I just think it's the ebbs and flows of the season, where players get hot and cold at times," Weiss said Tuesday when discussing Acuña's slump.

「我僅是認為,此乃賽季之起伏使然,球員時而手感熾烈、時而冰冷,」魏斯週二論及阿庫尼亞之低潮時如是言。

"The postseason is no different.

「季後賽亦復如是。

He belongs to that category of player who needs just one swing to produce something truly spectacular.

他屬那類僅需一次揮棒,便能締造真正壯觀表現之球員。

So I don't read too much into it.

是以我不作過多揣想。

It will come at some point."

它終將於某一時刻降臨。」
