There were two men down 有兩個人下來

And the score tied 而成績排在并列

In the bottom of the eighth 在第八的底

When the pitcher died 當投手死亡

   

And they laid his spikes 他們把他的釘鞋

On the pitcher's mound 在投手丘

And his uniform was torn 他的制服被撕破

And his number was left on the ground 而他的電話號碼被留在地上

   

Then the night turned cold 然后晚上轉(zhuǎn)冷

Colder than the moon 比月亮更冷

The stars were white as bones 星星是白色的骨頭

The stadium was old 該體育場是老

Older than the screams 較舊的尖叫聲

Older than the teams 較舊的團隊

   

There were three men down 有三個人倒

And the season lost 而本賽季失去了

And the tarpaulin was rolled 和篷布被軋

Upon the winter frost 在冬季霜凍
