Cleveland’s Choo proves to have 20-20 vision
Choo Shin-soo of the Cleveland Indians reached the 20-20 mark (20 homers, 20 steals) in his second to last regular season game yesterday. Although 11 other batters achieved the feat this year, Choo became the first Asian in MLB history to do so.
Facing the Boston Red Sox at the Fenway Park in Boston, Choo hit a two-run home run in the top of the seventh inning. Trailing 10-4 and with Asdrubal Cabrera on first and no outs, Choo took an outside fastball from Paul Byrd and hit it over the “Green Monster.”
The right fielder had hit his 19th home run of the season five days earlier on Sept. 29 against the Chicago White Sox. Choo has 21 stolen bases in the season. The 27-year-old has now reached the 20-20 mark in his first full season with the Indians. He earned two hits in four at-bats to raise his season batting average to .300 and three RBI raises his season total to 86 for the season. He currently leads the team in RBI.
The Busan native signed a one year extension during the offseason and is expected to sign an extension with the Indians after the season.

Sizemore’s second surgery goes well
Grady Sizemore went 2-for-2 in the surgery stat line.
Sizemore underwent successful surgery on Wednesday morning to reinforce an unstable abdominal wall on his lower left side. The condition, known as an athletic pubalgia, was corrected by Dr. Bill Meyers in Philadelphia. Head athletic trainer Lonnie Soloff accompanied Sizemore on the trip to Philly and reported that all went well during the 20-minute procedure, which required a small incision in the region.
So that’s two successful surgeries in the span of a week for Sizemore, who had arthroscopic surgery on his left elbow on Sept. 9.

Prospect Knapp scheduled for surgery
Less than two months after the Indians made him a key acquisition in the trade that sent reigning Cy Young Award winner Cliff Lee to the Phillies, Jason Knapp is headed to the surgeon’s table.
Knapp, a hard-throwing, 19-year-old right-hander, will have arthroscopic surgery on his right shoulder Tuesday, head athletic trainer Lonnie Soloff announced Monday. The procedure will be performed by Dr. David Altchek in New York City.
The Indians knew they were receiving damaged goods, to some degree, when they acquired Knapp as part of the six-player trade in which they parted with Lee and outfielder Ben Francisco and also received right-hander Carlos Carrasco, catcher Lou Marson and infielder Jason Donald. But the fact that Knapp has loose bodies in his shoulder and needs surgery was information the club was not privy to on July 29.

Wedge meets with players to refocus
Clubs that have been out of contention since June aren’t usually called together for team meetings in mid-September.
But Tribe manager Eric Wedge, who is not exactly leading the league in job security these days, felt it was important to speak with his players before Monday’s series opener with the Twins.
Until recently, Wedge’s Indians had been putting together a strong second half, playing their best baseball after of a rash of July trades that completely reshaped the roster. But the Indians entered this three-game series — a series that continues Tuesday night at the Metrodome — having lost 10 of 13 and 11 of 15. A rookie-laden roster had begun to look like, well, a rookie-laden roster.
