我的宗教信仰就是棒球
I believe in the Church of Baseball.
曾经我也信仰过世界上 大部分的大小宗教
I’ve tried all the major religions and most of the minor ones.
我崇拜过释迦摩尼 真♥主♥安♥拉♥ 梵天 毗湿奴
I’ve worshipped Buddha, Allah, Brahma, Vishnu…
湿婆神 树精草怪 还有邓肯
Siva, trees, mushrooms and Isadora Duncan.
然后我学到了些道理
I know things.
比如说 玫瑰经念珠上有108颗珠子
For instance, there are 108 beads in a Catholic rosary…
而任何一个棒球上都缝有108针
and there are 108 stitches in a baseball.
当我明白了这些 我也给过耶酥机会
When I learned that, I gaveJesus a chance.
可看来我们的脾气实在是不和
But it just didn’t work out between us.
我对无止尽的赎罪没什么兴趣
The Lord laid too much guilt on me.
比起神学 我更喜欢形而上学
I prefer metaphysics to theology.
你想 棒球不需要人赎罪
You see, there’s no guilt in baseball…
也永远不会使人厌烦
and it’s never boring…
就像是性♥爱♥一样
which makes it like sex.
和我睡过觉的球手
There’s never been a ballplayer who slept with me…
全都在当年达到了 棒球生涯的巅峰
who didn’t have the best year of his career.
做♥爱♥就像是挥杆击球…
Making love is like hitting a baseball…
你同样需要放松精神 和集中注意力
you just gotta relax and concentrate.
此外 我从不和打击率 低于250的人上♥床♥
Besides, I’d never sleep with a player hitting under.250…
除非他拥有极高的打点 或者他是优秀的中外野手
unless he had a lot of RBI’s or was a great glove man up the middle.
我让这些男孩们获得了人生的体验
You see, there’s a certain amount of life wisdom I give these boys.
这让他们变的聪明
I can expand their minds.
有时候当我和某个球员独处
Sometimes when I’ve got a ballplayer alone…
我会给他念艾米莉和惠特曼的诗
I’ll just read Emily Dickinson or Walt Whitman to him.
那些家伙可爱极了 他们总会静下来倾听
And the guys are so sweet, they always stay and listen.
当然 只要男人认为是性♥爱♥的前奏
Of course, a guy will listen to anything
都会很认真的去听
if he thinks it’s foreplay.
我让他们获得自信 而他们给我安全感…
I make them feel confident, and they make me feel safe…
还有美丽
and pretty.
我给了他们生命中最美好的时间
Of course, what I give them lasts a lifetime.
而他们让我白看了142场比赛
What they give me lasts 142 games.
有时候这交易看来并不合算
Sometimes it seems like a bad trade…
可这也是为了棒球
but bad trades is a part of baseball.
谁又能忘记弗兰克罗宾逊 为缪特巴帕斯做出的帮助
Who can forget Frank Robinson for Milt Pappas, for God’s sake?
赛季还很长 你总该抱有希望
It’s a long season, and you gotta trust it.
我试过所有的信仰 真的全试过
I’ve tried ’em all, I really have.
但只有一种真正留在心中…
And the only church that truly feeds the soul…
无论时光怎么流逝…那就是对棒球的狂热
day in, day out… is the Church of Baseball.

球场上的积分板还是我爸爸捐赠的
’cause my daddy donated that scoreboard.
要是你禁止我来 他立马♥会♥把记分板给你拆走

老板 我有个问题

比如说”油罐”啦 “猫鱼”啦
Like “Oil Can,” “Catfish.”

What was the one you were…
“波奇小子”
“Pokey.”
觉得这如何
What do you think of”Pokey”?

现在可能会给大家都带来麻烦
You’re gonna get everybody in trouble.
我是被勾引的
I got lured.
你没有被勾引 女人是不会被勾引的
You did not get lured. Women do not get lured.
