CLEVELAND -- Once he rounded the bases a second time, propelled by a roaring crowd at Progressive Field, Roberto Perez began to understand what he had done.I dont think Ive ever had a night like that, the?Indians catcher said.He picked a good time for it.Known almost exclusively for his defense, Perez provided plenty of pop in Game 1 of the World Series, hitting a pair of homers -- a solo shot and a three-run drive -- as the Indians rolled to their fourth shutout of the postseason, 6-0 over the Chicago Cubs, on Tuesday night.The Indians love Perezs glove, arm and ability to frame pitches. Any offense they get from him is a bonus.All he did in his debut on baseballs biggest stage was become the first Indians hitter with a multihomer game in the World Series. He tied the franchise record for RBIs in a World Series game with four. And he joined Manny Ramirez and Jim Thome as the only Cleveland players to hit two homers in a postseason game.Not bad for a backup catcher who batted .183 during the regular season.Ive come a long ways. Im just playing with a lot of confidence right now, said Perez, who also homered in his first at-bat of the playoffs. Im not trying to do too much at the plate. Im just trying to control my emotions. First World Series experience and just trying to go out there and compete and try to get good ABs up there and try to get on base and make something happen. Its an unbelievable feeling.The 27-year-old Perez, who had thumb surgery this season, has three homers in 27 postseason at-bats -- equaling his number in 153 at-bats during the regular season.Perez homered his first time up in the American League Division Series against the?Boston Red Sox.?On Tuesday, he became the first No. 9 batter to hit two homers in a World Series game.His teammates saw it coming.I watch how hard he works day in and day out, said Indians shortstop Francisco Lindor, who had three hits. Hes doing it for his family. Hes doing it for Puerto Rico. Its awesome to see him stepping up.Perez gave the Indians a 3-0 lead in the fourth with his homer off starter Jon Lester. The left-hander attempted to sneak an 0-1 fastball past Perez, who lined it over the 19-foot wall in left field, his shot pinging off a railing.With the Indians up 3-0 and two outs in the eighth, Perez drove a pitch from Hector Rondon into the bleachers in left, sending Indians fans into a frenzy and moving Cleveland a step closer to its first title since 1948.As he crossed home plate, Perez delivered a double high-five to teammate Lonnie Chisenhall.Perezs one-two punch flattened the Cubs. But beyond his unexpected offensive production, Perez has been excellent behind the plate in handling Clevelands pitchers, who have complimented the way he calls a game.He should be a star catcher, thats the way hes heading, Indians reliever Andrew Miller said. He doesnt even have to get a hit to validate his spot behind the plate.Perez worked the corners for starter Corey Kluber, who struck out nine Cubs -- six of them looking.For much of the season, Perez didnt come close to hitting his weight (220 pounds), and there was a long stretch when he was almost an automatic out in the lineup. But when starter Yan Gomes went down with a separated shoulder in July and then a broken wrist in September, Perez stepped in -- and the Indians havent missed a beat.Hes the latest surprise on a surprising squad of Indians.What he did at the plate tonight, my goodness, that was exciting to watch, Indians manager Terry Francona said. Everybody was happy for him. You could see the way everybody reacted to it. Nike Air Max 270 Cheap China . Scott won the Australian PGA last week in his first event in Australia since winning the U.S. Masters in April.

MORITZ, Switzerland -- Fog prevented downhill racers from getting their Olympic dress rehearsal. A trip to Perth is unlikely for Silent Sedition who is instead set to run in the Group Three Summoned Stakes at Sandown.Silent Sedition won two stakes races during her three-year-old season and was second in the Group One Australasian Oaks while so far this spring she has been placed in her two starts in Group company.Silent Sedition ran an eye-catching second to Sheidel first-up at Caulfield before finishing third in a 1400m Group Three race for mares at Flemington as favourite.She holds a nomination for the Railway Stakes in Perth but trainer Andrew Noblet felt the mare needed to be dominant last start to warrant the trip.He said at this stage the plan was to stay home and run in Saturdays Summoned Stakes in which Silent Sedition has the outside barrier in the field of 16.She just got chasing from a fair way out (last start) and probably the hard run first-up might have just taken the edge off her, Noblet said.Shes come through that really well and she goes into a suitable race on Saturday although I would rather it was 1600 metres and not 1500.Silent Seditions stablemate Super Cash is the only mare in the Kevin Heffernan Stakes (1300m), her first attempt at weight-for-age.dddddddddddd.Super Cash won at Caulfield and ran fourth in a Group Three straight race at Flemington last Saturday week when she came down the inside section of the track with the three placegetters on the outside.She did all the donkey work on the inside and still beat those horses easily. I thought she went great, Noblet said.Given Super Cashs liking for the straight at Flemington, Noblet said the Newmarket Handicap would be an autumn goal.I know its a hard race but shes a good horse down the straight and she would have no weight on her back, so it might be a viable option for her, he said.The trainer also has debutant two-year-old Another Demon in Saturdays Merson Cooper Stakes.Another Demon is out of Almas Angel and hails from a family close to Noblet.Almas Angel is an unraced half-sister to stakes winners Sistine Angel and Sistine Demon, both trained by Noblet.
