Cabrera is one of the more dependable players in MLB. More often than not, Cabrera is penciled into the lineup for the majority of games.
AMI is proud to offer some treasures which have been in Cabrera's collection for years.
Cabrera made a little history when he stepped to the plate for the first time as a Boston Red Sox. The infielder connected on an offering from Twins starter Johan Santana for a home run to left field.
This OML (Selig) ball was the actual ball hit by Cabrera, who became only the eighth player in franchise history to hit a homer during his first AB with the team.
