波士頓訊--
老爹的強力打擊下為他自己擺脫季初低潮跨出一大步。

With the bases loaded and the Red Sox trailing the Rangers by a run, 
the slugger drove the first pitch he saw from right-handed starter Luis Mendoza in the bottom of the third inning to the second row of the Green Monster seats. 
Big Papi's eighth career grand slam propelled the Red Sox to an 11-3 win over the Rangers at Fenway Park on Friday night. 

當第四局壘包上滿壘時，此時紅襪落後遊騎兵一分，
三局下這個強打者（老爹）從右投Luis Mendoza 手中所投出第一球打出滿貫，打到綠色怪物座位的第二排
老爹生涯第八次的大滿慣也促使了星期五晚上的紅襪最後比11比3贏得勝利。

Dustin Pedroia also homered, his first of the season, in a five-run fourth that blew the game wide open. 

今天Dustin Pedroia 也轟了全壘打，本季第一轟，在第四局一人在壘時開轟，
為這局拉開比數（這局共打五分）。

Daisuke Matsuzaka (4-0) was the beneficiary of the offensive fireworks, 
winning his fourth straight outing since a no-decision on Opening Day in Tokyo. 
But again, the right-hander had trouble keeping his pitch count under control,
throwing 101 pitches while getting just one out deep into the sixth inning. 

維尼連四勝，當然也是隊友猛打賞下的受益者，
他贏得他的第四勝（東京開幕戰無關勝負）
然而一樣的，在第六局一個出局後，投101球時又再度失控遇到問題。

"I thought Dice worked behind in the count a lot," Red Sox manager Terry Francona said. 
"First-pitch counts and 1-1 counter weren't very good. He pitched behind in the count a lot." 

紅襪總教練粉柯南說：「我認為今天維尼常常球數落後」
「尤其好壞球近1：1不是很好，他在球數落後往往要投出更多的球」

Matsuzaka allowed three runs on five hits over 5 1/3 innings, and he left after allowing a one-out, two-run homer to Hank Blalock in the sixth. 

今天維尼在5.1局中掉三分，且在第六局一人出局，被Hank Blalock 轟兩分砲之後退場。

"Just like my last start," Matsuzaka said, referring to his 116 pitches over five innings on Sunday.
"I realize that I have to go deeper into games. 
The very fact that we have to even talk about pitch counts, I think that's a problem right there." 

比較上次週日五局先發投出116顆球，維尼說「就像我上一場的表現一樣，我應該要更投入/深入在比賽中」
「一個很明顯的事實是，投球數耗太多，這是目前最大問題所在」


A former Boston farmhand acquired by Texas in a trade for reliever Bryan Corey, Mendoza (0-2) was roughed up for seven runs and five hits over three-plus innings

先前紅襪以Mendoza (0-2) 跟德州遊騎兵交易Bryan Corey，Mendoza (0-2) 在三局多一點共掉七分被打五支安打退場。

Ortiz added an RBI single in the eighth inning to cap off his two-hit, five-RBI night.

老爹在第八局時又因為二壘安打，得到一分打點，總計今晚共五分打點。

"First of all, he gives us the lift with the opposite-field home run, which, when you see guys drive the ball to the opposite field, that's good," Francona said. 
"Then he lines out to left, then he stayed on another ball and hit the line drive to right. He swung at strikes and got rewarded for it, too, so that's good. I'm sure that he's going to feel good. We obviously do.

粉柯南說「首先，他一開始送給我們相反方向的全壘打，當你看到打者跟著球打出相反方向時，那訊息是好的」
「接著，他打出左邊邊線球出局；然後～下個打席他先揮空後他擊出右邊安打，這是好的；
我很確定的是，他將會更好，我們對他很有信心」
