Daisuke Matsuzaka: No Longer Lost in Translation


Thanks to Off On A Tangent Reader Gino42 for sending in a link to this more accurate traslation of Daisuke Matsuzaka's Red Sox Press Conference: Lost in translation? - Extra Bases - Boston.com:
"QUESTION: I'd like to get your impression of Fenway Park, after pitching off the mound, your initial impression off the park that you're going to be pitching in.

MATSUZAKA: I had seen [the park] on TV many times. Despite the construction, I was moved by the long history and the beauty of the ballpark. Imagining how it'll look in perfect condition by Opening Day... I'm looking forward to it."
I'm glad to see this new translation and hope that we get better translations in the future.
