Since taking a photo with Nicolas Cage, Eduardo Escobar has been on fire
No. It seems there's a far greater force at work.

Escobar looks thrilled (or at least more thrilled than Nic Cage) to be in the photo and, according to City Pages and Twins PR director Dustin Morse, he had reason to be:
A native of Venezuela, Escobar uses Cage films -- which include classics like Con Air, Face/Off, and Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance -- to assist with learning English.
Hopefully he sprinkled some Wicker Man in there too.
How long will the #BattingCage good luck charm last? Only Nic knows for sure.
