MLB Note - Cleveland Indians Kipnis, Jason

Sep 20, 2017 - 9:11 AM 2B Jason Kipnis got his second start in center field on Tuesday against the Angels, after starting there Sunday against Kansas City but getting no chances in the field. Kipnis had not played in center since college, but with regular CF Bradley Zimmer out with a broken hand and Austin Jackson playing left field to fill in for the injured Michael Brantley, the Indians plan to use Kipnis and rookie Greg Allen in center. Kipnis got his first chance in center in the fifth inning Tuesday when he fielded a single by SS Andrelton Simmons. Kipnis, like he did in Sunday's game, was replaced by Allen after five innings.
