Play doesn’t need to stop for sports fans taking a bathroom break at a Pennsylvania minor-league baseball stadium that has installed video games in men’s room urinals.

在(美國)賓州一座小聯盟棒球場,球賽(或玩樂)無需為了球迷上廁所解放一下而中斷—該球場已在男廁小便斗裝設電玩遊戲。

The "hands-free" video game is played by directing oneself right or left in the urinals at the Lehigh Valley IronPigs’ Coca-Cola Park in Allentown, Pennsylvania. The game is aimed at increasing prostate health awareness.

(小聯盟)理海谷鐵豬隊位於賓州艾倫鎮的可口可樂棒球場的這種小便斗「免用手」電玩遊戲,是透過把(尿液水柱)指向右或左來玩。該遊戲的目的,在於提升攝護腺健康意識。

The urinal video games will commence when the baseball games start for the IronPigs, a minor league team affiliated with the Philadelphia Phillies. The team opens its 2013 season in early April.

當隸屬大聯盟的費城費城人隊的鐵豬開打時,此一小便斗電玩遊戲便會啟用。該隊(鐵豬隊)2013年球季於4月初展開。

The IronPigs bought the restroom entertainment, described as the "world’s only truly hands-free urinal game controller," from Captive Media, a company based in the United Kingdom, said IronPigs spokesman Jon Schaeffer.

鐵豬隊發言人瓊.史卡佛說,該隊是向總部設於英國的Captive Media,購買這套被形容為「世界唯一真正免用手的小便斗遊戲控制器」的洗手間娛樂裝置。

While the games have been placed in bars in the United Kingdom, their appearance in the Allentown stadium marks a first in the world of sports, said Ed Gundrum, who oversees sales for the company in the U.S.

監督該公司在美業務的艾德.岡德倫說,英國酒吧雖已設有這種電玩遊戲,但它們在艾倫鎮球場的出現,卻是該遊戲設施首度在體壇亮相。
