Lou Gehrig: Farewell to Baseball AddressFans, for the past two weeks you have been reading about the bad break I got.
《楼格里格：告别棒球地址》粉丝，在过去的两个星期里，你一直在读我的坏消息。
Yet today I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth.I have been in ballparks for seventeen years and have never received anything but kindness and encouragement from you fans.
，但今天我认为自己是世界上最幸运的人。我在棒球场已经17年了，除了你的球迷们的善意和鼓励，我什么也没得到。
看看这些大人物。
Which of you wouldn't consider it the highlight of his career just to associate with them for even one day?Sure I'm lucky.Who wouldn't consider it an honor to have known Jacob Ruppert? Also, the builder of baseball's greatest empire, Ed Barrow? To have spent six years with that wonderful little fellow, Miller Huggins? Then to have spent the next nine years with that outstanding leader, that smart student of psychology, the best manager in baseball today, Joe McCarthy?Sure I'm lucky.When the New York Giants, a team you would give your right arm to beat, and vice versa, sends you a gift - that's something.
你们中哪一个不认为这是他职业生涯的亮点就是和他们交往一天？当然我很幸运。谁不认为认识雅各布·鲁伯特是一种荣誉呢？还有，棒球最伟大帝国的缔造者艾德·巴罗？和那个可爱的小家伙一起呆了六年，米勒·哈金斯？接下来的九年里，我会和那个杰出的领袖，那个聪明的心理学学生，当今最好的棒球教练，乔·麦卡锡在一起？当然我很幸运。当纽约巨人队，一支你会用右臂去击败的球队，反之亦然，送你一份礼物-这是很有意义的。
When everybody down to the groundskeepers and those boys in white coats remember you with trophies -- that's something.
当所有人都在球场上和那些穿着白大褂的男孩们用奖杯来纪念你时-这是很有意义的。
When you have a wonderful mother-in-law who takes sides with you in squabbles with her own daughter -- that's something.When you have a father and a mother who work all their lives so you can have an education and build your body -- it's a blessing.When you have a wife who has been a tower of strength and shown more courage than you dreamed existed -- that's the finest I know.So, I close in saying that I might have been given a bad break, but Ive got an awful lot to live for.
当你有一位出色的婆婆在和自己的女儿争吵时站在你一边时-这是很有意义的。当你有一位父亲和一位母亲在他们的工作中生活，这样你就可以接受教育，建立你的身体——这是一种祝福。当你有一个妻子，她一直是一个力量的塔楼，比你梦想的存在更多的勇气时，这是我所知道的最好的。所以，我要说我可能受到了很坏的待遇，但我还有很多活要做。
