Shoppach The Hero!

 
For one night, the magic of the late 90’s was back at Jacobs Field.  Trailing 5-3 going into the bottom of the ninth, the Indians rallied with five in their half of the inning, all scoring with two out, to beat the Oakland A’s, 8-5.  This returns the favor from the last game played in Oakland when the A’s put up a five spot to beat the Tribe on a Jack Cust home run. 
 
Kelly Shoppach was the big hero with the pinch hit three run dinger that decided the game, and there were other heroes as well.  Travis Hafner had his second extra base hit in two nights with a double to the gap to tie the game, and Eric Wedge deserves kudos for pinch running Ben Francisco for Victor Martinez, representing the tying run.  There is no way Martinez would have scored on Pronk’s double.  The Tribe’s extra base hit punch has returned at least in the first two games against the A’s.  Monday night, they had four doubles plus a Hafner tater, and last night they belted two homers to go along with three more doubles.  When the Indian bats are going well, they are a doubles machine.
 
There are some reasons for concern, however.  Tom Mastny’s struggles continued as he allowed a go ahead run in the seventh.  The righty has been failing more often than not over the last month which gives Eric Wedge only one option to set up in Rafael Betancourt.  That is unless Rafael Perez can do the job.  Perez continues to impress, throwing two scoreless innings last night, including getting out of a first and second, one out mess that Mastny left him.  The lefty is tough on left handed hitters, but also has done well against righties too.  He merits a long in the set up role.
 
Trot Nixon’s struggles continue as well.  Nixon went hitless again last night, and could lose his spot in what Wedge has set up as a three man rotation in LF and RF with Jason Michaels and Franklin Gutierrez.  With southpaw Lenny DiNardo on the hill tonight for the A’s, the latter two will be in the lineup anyway.  But, Wedge might give Ben Francisco a look see if Nixon doesn’t start producing.  The veteran has been such a good presence in the clubhouse that I doubt Cleveland will release him.  His back might start bothering him, though.
 
For those looking at the momentum factor, let me remind you that the Tribe’s mini slump in June came after a five run rally in the ninth to beat the Tigers on June 1st.  It’s been said many times that momentum in baseball is tonight’s starting pitcher.  Fausto Carmona carries the title tonight, which isn’t a bad thing.  With a day game looming on Thursday, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Mike Rouse’s name in the lineup today or tomorrow.  Jhonny Peralta and Josh Barfield will need a day off with a game scheduled every day until the All Star break.
 
In the meantime, GM Mark Shapiro is looking for bullpen help.  The conversion of Adam Miller to the ‘pen for the balance of the season might start to take place to give the team another power arm in relief.  Now that would be an anticipated debut!  There is no question that is the biggest weakness that needs to be addressed.  Of course, if Fernando Cabrera could show a little consistency, the bullpen would be much better.  I’m guessing management is starting to run out of patience with the big right hander.
