May 8 Damon homered and then hit the go-ahead double in Thursday's win over the Indians.

Recommendation: After being on fire over the weekend, it had been a tough series for Damon against the Tribe, going 0-for-9 in the first two games. Damon is hitting for a lot more power than he did in 2007, when he was limited in an injury-filled season to a .396 slugging percentage.
