Reveling in WBC success, Miami pushes to be tourney’s permanent home 沉浸於世界棒球經典賽的成功之中，邁阿密正積極推動成為賽事的永久主辦地 https://reurl.cc/lpRbkd About six MLB clubs have already expressed interest in hosting in the future, sa id Jeremiah Yolkut,MLB’s senior vice president for global operations and events . Some of them traveled to Miami to check out the setup in person during this to urnament. 美國職棒大聯盟全球營運與活動資深副總裁Jeremiah Yolkut表示約有六支MLB球隊已經表達 未來希望成為主辦城市的興趣，有些球隊甚至在本屆賽事期間親自前往邁阿密，實地觀察場 地與運作情況 But Miami’s built a case that, at the least, might be hard for others to top. 不過邁阿密已經建立起強而有力的主辦優勢，至少目前來看，很難被其他城市超越 “As the tournament evolves, we always want to leave ourselves open to see what ’s best for the tournament based on the market conditions and kind of where the game is at,” Yolkut said. “I think Miami is always going to be in the rotatio n in some way, but I wouldn’t want to make any sort of permanent statement abou t, ‘The WBC is housed here.’ 「隨著世界棒球經典賽的發展，我們希望保持彈性，根據市場條件與棒球發展狀況來決定最 適合的安排」 「我認為邁阿密未來一定會以某種形式持續出現在輪替之中，但我不會做出任何永久性的宣 告，例如『WBC固定在這裡舉辦』」 Historically, some tournament organizers have believed the WBC should be played every four years, and in a year when the Olympics are not held. Baseball will be played at the 2028 Olympics, and major leaguers are likely to be allowed to par ticipate en masse for the first time ever, but the league and the union need to work out a deal on that topic as well. 從歷史上看，一些主辦單位認為世界棒球經典賽應該每四年舉辦一次，並避開奧林匹克運動 會的年份，棒球將在2028年奧運登場，而大聯盟球員很可能首次大規模參賽，但聯盟與球員 工會仍需就此達成協議 “There’s considerations around the Olympics,” Yolkut said. “There’s a real question around feeding the international nature of the Olympics… is that best served in March ’29 or March of ‘30? And so we’ll look at the baseball calend ar as a whole. Yolkut表示：「我們確實需要考量奧林匹克運動會，關鍵問題在於如何延續奧運所帶來的國 際熱度……究竟是在2029年3月還是2030年3月舉辦比較合適？因此我們會從整體棒球賽程來 評估」 “I think four years is a long period of time. It’s not that we couldn’t do it . It’s just that after a couple of years, people are like, ‘When’s the WBC ag ain?’ And by the third year, people are ready for it.” 「我認為四年的間隔其實很長，並不是不能這樣做，而是過了兩年後，人們就會開始問『WB C什麼時候再來？』到了第三年，大家就已經準備好再看一次了」 The World Baseball Softball Confederation, the organizing body of baseball inter nationally, also gets involved in the scheduling question. 負責國際棒球事務的WBSC也會參與賽程安排的討論 Once the tournament wraps up Tuesday night, the process of choosing the next tou rnament’s ballparks will begin quickly. MLB first refines its requests for prop osals, the specifications it wants host ballparks to meet: everything from hotel rooms in town to space for media at the park. Then by the end of the year, the RFPs will likely be sent out. 一旦本屆世界棒球經典賽在週二晚間結束，下一屆主辦地的遴選程序將迅速展開，大聯盟會 先整理主辦條件（RFP），包括城市的飯店數量、球場媒體空間等要求，並預計在年底前發 出提案邀請 “We’ve already talked to MLB, and they want to sit down and really talk about all the observations for this run of the tournament,” O’Connor of the Marlins said. “We’d love to be the host again.” 邁阿密馬林魚管理層的O’Connor表示：「我們已經與大聯盟討論過，他們希望針對這次賽 事的各種觀察進行深入檢討。我們當然很希望能再次成為主辦城市」 Higgins, naturally, sees an obvious choice. 邁阿密市長Higgins則認為答案再明顯不過。 “There’s just something about celebrating all of our different cultures that w e do better than any place in America,” the mayor said. “Of course it should b e permanent. I’ve been saying this for years.” 邁阿密市長表示：「在慶祝多元文化這件事上，沒有任何一個美國城市比我們做得更好，這 項賽事當然應該永久設在這裡，我這樣說已經很多年了」 根據拉斯維加斯評論報 綠帽想在在下一屆用他們拉斯維加斯新球場承擔WBC https://reurl.cc/X2WbOE The next rendition of the World Baseball Classic could see some of its games pla yed in Las Vegas at the Athletics’ $2 billion Strip ballpark. 下一屆世界棒球經典賽有可能在拉斯維加斯舉行部分比賽，地點為運動家隊位於賭城大道、 造價20億美元的新球場 The A’s are interested in hosting games during the next WBC, scheduled to occur in either 2029 or 2030, a person with knowledge of the situation told the Revie w-Journal. 一位知情人士向媒體透露，運動家隊有意在下一屆世界棒球經典賽（預計於2029或2030年舉 行）期間主辦部分賽事 ----- Sent from JPTT on my iPhone -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 24.114.101.76 (加拿大) ※ 文章網址: https://webptt.cc/bbs/Baseball/M.1773803351.A.807.html
