Shoppach powers up vs. O's: Daniel Nava and Kelly Shoppach hit sixth-inning homers to turn a tie game in Boston's favor, and the Red Sox withstood two home runs by Nick Johnson in a 6-5 victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday. It was 2-all in the sixth before Nava, the No. 7 hitter in the order, drove a 2-0 pitch from Jake Arreita (2-5) over the right-field wall. Scott Podsednik followed with a single, and No. 9 hitter Shoppach greeted Luis Ayala with a drive to left. Nava and Shoppach each doubled his home run total for the season; the pair also connected on May 14 against Seattle. (Updated 05/23/2012)

Fantasy Analysis
Shoppach has two homers and four RBI in his last eight games (six starts). Unless he really goes on a monster tear, then the Red Sox will be committed to using Jarrod Saltalamacchia as the starting catcher. Despite the home run, Shoppach still has marginal Fantasy appeal. (Updated 05/23/2012).
