滑翔傘運(yùn)動的準(zhǔn)備工作 Try to fly
Baseball’s stature in the history of the United States is perhaps reflected more clearly in a simple dictionary rather than in the seven-centimetre-thick baseball encyclopaedia.
或許一本簡單的字典比7厘米厚的棒球百科全書更能反映出棒球運(yùn)動在美國歷史上的地位。
There, you can find the word Ruthian, meaning "of mammoth proportions", as in a home run by Babe Ruth back in the 1920s. There, you can find Lou Gehrig’s disease, as the incurable degenerative illness amyotrophic lateral sclerosis has been better known since Lou Gehrig, Ruth’s team-mate, died from it in the 1940s. In the United States, baseball and the English language are interwoven.
字典中“Ruthian”一詞的意思是“占巨大比例的”，而該詞的來源是20世紀(jì)20年代的棒球巨星貝貝·魯斯（Babe Ruth）,他擊出的本壘打占其全部擊球的很大比例。還有“Lou Gehrig’s disease”，這個短語指的是”肌萎縮性側(cè)索硬化癥”,魯斯的隊友盧·格里格（Lou Gehrig）患這種導(dǎo)致身體器官衰退的不治之癥，于20世紀(jì)40年代去世。在美國，棒球和英語是結(jié)合在一起的。
However, just as the game did not begin as a wholly US enterprise, it did not end the 20th century as one either. Baseball’s all-time home-run champion is a man named Sadaharu Oh, who hit 868 during a legendary career in baseball-mad Japan. The national team of Cuba overpowered the Baltimore Orioles of the US major leagues 12-6 in a 1999 exhibition game.
不過，就像棒球最初不完全是美國的獨(dú)家運(yùn)動一樣，在20世紀(jì)末，美國已經(jīng)不能在這項運(yùn)動上稱霸了。棒球歷史上個人的本壘打紀(jì)錄（868支）是由傳奇性的華裔日籍球員王貞治（Sadaharu Oh）在日本這個極其熱愛棒球的國家中創(chuàng)下的，而美國職業(yè)棒球大聯(lián)盟的勁旅巴爾的摩金鶯隊（Baltimore Orioles）在1999年的一場表演賽中曾以6-12負(fù)于古巴國家隊。
American baseball became a full medal sport in Barcelona in 1992.
美式棒球于1992年巴塞羅那奧運(yùn)會上成為正式比賽項目。
