把这一句，留给此刻的你
And handicapping is for amateur golfers, not ballplayers. Pitchers don’t ease off on the cleanup hitter because of the lumps just discovered in his wife’s breast. Baseball is not life. It is a fiction, a metaphor. And a ballplayer is a man who agrees to uphold that metaphor as though lives were at stake.
而限制是为业余高尔夫球手准备的，而不是棒球运动员。投手们不放松对清洁安打者，因为在他妻子的胸部发现了肿块。棒球不是生活。这是一种虚构，一种隐喻。而一个棒球运动员是一个同意支持这个比喻的人，就好像生命危在旦夕。
