苦しかった!
イチロー専用のストライクゾーンや、
米マスコミやファンによる言われなき中傷など、
白人至上主義の中で、異邦人2人が偉業を達成しています。
そう、
イチローとフェリックスです。
そのイチローの日本からの期待によって達成できたというコメント!
泣かせますね。
これこそ我が日本人の誇りです。
以下は、
マリナーズの公式ホームページより一部抜粋
The reception he received inside the visitor's dugout at the end of the inning was warmer.
There were pats on the back, low- and high-fives, and hugs from others,
including Ken Griffey Jr.
"One thing I was preparing for was for Junior not to get the 200-hit ball
because he would write silly things on it,
" Ichiro said. "But he did get the ball and he did write silly things on it."
Ichiro laughed and then said breaking the record was more satisfying
to his country than it was to himself.
"When I break a record, I never feel satisfaction,
" he said. "I strongly feel expectation from Japan and my records are things
that I feel Japan [believes] they must have.
"I always want to feel satisfaction, but when I accomplish a record, I only feel relief."
このビッグゲームを支えたのは、
今年度のサイヤング賞候補のフェリックスだったことも、
イチローの“持っている”を支えてチームは勝利しました。
7回を4安打未失点投球で15勝目をマーク。
マリナーズと長期契約が結べるか否かこれから球団はどうするのか?
ランディ=ジョンソン、ジュニアやA=ロッドのような事に
ならないことを祈るのみですね。
ARLINGTON -- On most nights, pitching a shutout would put Mariners right-hander
Felix Hernandez front and center during the postgame celebration.
But this was no ordinary night.
Hernandez contributed seven scoreless innings to the Mariners' 5-0 victory over
the Rangers in the nightcap of a rain-delayed doubleheader before
an announced crowd of 18,522 at Rangers Ballpark on Sunday.
But his performance took second place in relevance.
Ichiro Suzuki had one hit in each game, completing his journey
to a Major League-record ninth consecutive 200-hit season.
He had shared the record for almost a year with Hall of Fame outfielder
Willie Keeler, whose streak ended exactly 100 years before Ichiro's streak started.
A typical season for the Mariners right fielder has been a breakout
season for Hernandez.
The 23-year-old has been considered for several years throughout the industry
as one of the best young pitchers in the business.
He has more than pitched up to those high expectations this season,
and tossed his right arm into the American League Cy Young Award race.
The 30th start of the season was among his best,
and there have been a lot of good ones.
This was the 16th time that he pitched at least seven innings and
allowed one or fewer runs.
The first-time All-Star, coming off a nine-win season a year ago,
surpassed the 14 wins he had in 2007,
when he compiled a 14-7 record and 3.92 ERA.
He is 15-5 with a 2.52 ERA.
