佛勒推特許願成真終結開季無安打 激勵衆家砲手跟進
紅雀外野手佛勒(Dexter Fowler),開季前三場比賽累積13打數沒有安打,狀態奇差無比。臺北時間2日賽後,他在推特上發了一則鼓勵自己的「我會敲安打」文,今天的比賽裡就擊出本季首安。成功的許願文,也讓其他開季至今還沒敲安的球員隨之效法。
I will get a hit. I will get a hit. I will get a hit. I will get a hit. I will get a hit. I will get a hit. I will get a hit. I will get a hit. I will get a hit. I will get a hit. I will get a hit. I will get a hit. I will get a hit.
佛勒在前三場比賽中,不但13打數沒有安打,還吞下6次三振,僅靠一次保送站上壘包,打擊率0.00、上壘率0.71與他去年的打擊率0.264、上壘率0.363有着極大的差距。
紅雀客場出征釀酒人,發完自我鼓勵文的佛勒,三局上終於敲出本季首安,並且還帶有一分打點,不過佛勒在壘上的時間並沒有維持太久,上壘後他策動盜壘企圖站上得點圈,被釀酒人捕手皮尼亞(Manny Pina)逮個正着觸殺在二壘前。
在佛勒終結開季安打荒後,大聯盟其他尚未開胡的球員也跟着效法他,包括印地安人巨砲拉米瑞茲(Jose Ramirez)、太空人外野手瑞迪克(Josh Reddick),他們倆開季至今分別是12、7打數「槓龜」,期望能透過這特別的方法來找到手感。
