About Asdrúbal Cabrera
Asdrúbal José Cabrera is a Venezuelan-American former professional baseball infielder. He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Cleveland Indians, Washington Nationals, Tampa Bay Rays, New York Mets, Philadelphia Phillies, Texas Rangers, Arizona Diamondbacks, and Cincinnati Reds. Cabrera, a switch hitter, is a two-time All-Star. He was primarily a middle infielder for most of his career, but transitioned to playing more third base during the 2017 season and began playing first base late in the 2019 season. Three days later, Cabrera picked up his first major league hit, a double, against Mike Mussina of the New York Yankees. Cabrera hit his first career home run on August 18, 2007, off Jason Hammel of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays in an 8–1 victory for the Indians. In 2007, Cabrera helped power the Indians to a tie for the best record in baseball (96–66 with the Boston Red Sox) with his late-inning heroics. During the 2011 season, Cabrera hit 25 home runs (setting a franchise record for a shortstop) and recorded 92 RBI, both career highs.
