The three-hit game achieved by Indians shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera on Wednesday night was merely an extension of a hot streak that began on May 7.

Cabrera, whose average bottomed out at .205 the day before, has 14 hits in his last 30 at-bats for a .480 stretch. He has three doubles, two home runs and 10 runs scored in the last seven games.

The tear has motivated Terry Francona to elevate Cabrera into the fifth spot in the lineup. His .259 batting average is at its highest point since the second game of the season.
