compromise #6
米メジャーリーグ ヤンキースのジラルディ 監督が4月7日の開幕試合(opner)で、田中将大投手が先発投手を務めることを明言しました。「妥協する」以外の意味のcompromiseはすでに何度も取り上げられていますが、復習がてら振り返りましょう。ただ、ここはphysicalな感じですが、どのような意味で用いられているのでしょうか。Inahoさん、即座にお願いします。(Kawada)
Masahiro Tanaka to start opener
TAMPA, Fla. -- It's official: Masahiro Tanaka will make the Opening Day start for the New York Yankees against the Toronto Blue Jays on April 6 at Yankee Stadium, ending the six-year Opening Day run of the former ace, CC Sabathia.
The announcement from manager Joe Girardi on Friday morning was hardly a surprise, since it was clear last season that Tanaka had assumed the role of ace from Sabathia, whose effectiveness has been compromised by elbow and knee injuries and a significant loss of fastball velocity over the past two seasons.
