sure 的常见用法是 I'm sure，make sure. 这里 sure 在 can 的后面，好像是动词，可是一查词典，sure 不能做动词。实际上，a sure out 是一个棒球术语，能打出 a sure out 可能要一定水平。我不懂棒球。以中文足球术语为例，“他能头球”，本来“头球”是名词，这里当动词用了。同理，Harry can sure play baseball. 的意思是：Harry can throw a sure out when he plays baseball. 接下来的一句是 Can't he, though. 表示不太肯定，且有点惋惜：虽然他现在不行了。 6 F4 j6 f+ C" Z1 {, ]/ a6 |5 a$ P) s" N* q( Q" {2 |' s4 r
