Isaac Benjamin Davis : ウィキペディア英語版
Ike Davis


Isaac Benjamin "Ike" Davis (born March 22, 1987) is an American professional baseball first baseman for the Oakland Athletics of Major League Baseball (MLB). From 2010 through 2014, he played in MLB for the New York Mets and Pittsburgh Pirates.
Davis is the ninth player in Mets history to hit three home runs in a single game. He and his father Ron Davis, who pitched in the majors for 11 years, are the 197th father-son combination to have both played in the major leagues.
He led his high school team to three straight Arizona state championships as a pitcher/first baseman. As a hitter he batted .447, while as a pitcher he recorded a 23–0 win–loss record, a 1.85 earned run average (ERA), and 14 saves. He also pitched for the gold medal-winning U.S.A. Youth National Team in the 2003 World Youth Championships, and was the most valuable player of the 2004 AFLAC All-American High School Baseball Classic. Ranked second in the nation as a freshman for Arizona State University by both ''Baseball America'' and ''Collegiate Baseball'', he was named Pac-10 Conference Freshman of the Year, as he became the first freshman ever to lead the conference in runs batted in (RBIs). He hit .353 with a .605 slugging percentage in college, threw a fastball that reached 94 miles per hour, and was a two-time All-American and a three-time All-Pac-10 selection.
Davis was drafted 18th overall in the first round of the 2008 MLB Draft. In the minor leagues, he batted .288 with a .371 on-base percentage (OBP), and a .467 slugging percentage, and was the Mets 2009 Organizational Player of the Year.
The Mets called him up to the majors in April 2010. His 11 home runs prior to the All-Star break that season tied him for the second-most ever by a Mets rookie. He set the Mets rookie record for total bases (230), and tied the Mets rookie records for bases on balls (72) and extra-base hits (53). He was named the first baseman on ''Baseball America''s 2010 All-Rookie Team. During a 2011 season shortened by an ankle injury, Davis batted .302. In 2012 he batted .227, but his 32 home runs were 5th-best in the National League. In 2013, he split his time between the Mets and AAA Las Vegas. He was traded to the Pirates in April 2014, and traded to the Athletics after the season.
==Early years==
Davis was born in Edina, Minnesota, to Millie (née Gollinger) Davis and former major league pitcher Ron Davis, who pitched in 481 games in the majors in his 11-year career. His father was a power relief pitcher, and an American League All-Star in 1981. He pitched from 1978 to 1988, starting with the New York Yankees (1978–81, going 27–10 with 22 saves, primarily as the setup man for Rich Gossage). He then pitched for the Minnesota Twins, Chicago Cubs, Los Angeles Dodgers, and San Francisco Giants.〔 His father retired when he was 32, however, so he mostly remembers old-timers' games, such as the one in which he met Derek Jeter when he was 12. He and his father are the 197th father-son combination to have both played in the major leagues.〔
Ike went to Cocopah Middle School and has a field there named after him. He took the baseball team to two straight state championships. He set a school record with 18 home runs in one season and 3 in one game.
Davis is Jewish. His mother, the youngest daughter of Bernard and Harriet Gollinger, is Jewish, and his father is Baptist.〔 Davis embraces both sides of his family’s history. His mother's family was from Lithuania, and a significant portion of it was murdered in The Holocaust.〔
His great aunt on his mother’s side was a Holocaust survivor, and Davis said: "She was the one who knew everything that happened. She was able to come to the United States, and she brought the story with her."〔 Davis' grandfather on his father’s side was a paratrooper in the United States Army who landed in France on D-Day in 1944, and later helped liberate one of the Nazi concentration camps.〔
Davis' given names are Isaac and Benjamin (after his mother's two grandfathers).〔 Although Davis does not practice Judaism and is non-religious,〔Adam Rubin, (ESPN New York: "Ike Davis to play on Yom Kippur" ) September 16, 2010〕〔(''New York Times'': "Davis Shares His Family's Holocaust History: ) September 27, 2010〕 he stated: "I am really proud of my Jewish heritage" and describes himself as "culturally Jewish."〔 He reflected: "It's funny about Judaism; It doesn’t matter if you're ultra-religious or not, as long as you know that it's in you or you're a part of it, everyone accepts you."〔 He often uses the Jewish greeting "shalom".〔 Davis states: "I'm glad Jewish kids get to see they can grow up to be professional baseball players."〔 Davis followed four other players of Jewish heritage on the Mets: Art Shamsky, Shawn Green, Scott Schoeneweis, and Josh Satin.〔
As a youth, he attended a five-day baseball fundamentals camp that his father runs for children ages 5–14. His father was also his little league coach until he was 14.〔 His father said:
People would say Ike was good because his dad was a player. But it's not that easy.... I can tell Ike how to swing, I can teach him to pitch, () the game of baseball, but he's the only one to make it to the big leagues. You can't teach heart and soul. That's what it takes to play in the game.
