Ausmus in a bind trying to find rest for a weary Cabrera.
Detnews

In his last six games, he is 1 for 9 with five strikeouts after the seventh inning.

It?s not a new phenomenon. According to Baseball Reference, he is hitting .235 from the seventh through the ninth inning. For his career, Cabrera has hit .333 in the seventh, .300 in the eighth and .274 in the ninth.

Another possible sign that he?s fatigued is that he?s being overpowered by pitchers more often than he has in his career. He?s hitting .204 against power pitching (fastballs in the mid- to upper-90s), with 16 strikeouts in 59 plate appearances.

For his career, he?s hit .278 against power pitching.

There are some other unusual statistical trends from Cabrera.

* He?s hitting .217 on the road (.310 lifetime).

* He?s hitting .226 in losses (.269 lifetime).

* He?s hitting .208 with runners in scoring position (.313 lifetime).
