JASON KIPNIS RUMORS & GOSSIP
Jason Kipnis, All-Star?

"Well, if he's inside the line and it affected his throw, he could've called the guy out at home. I didn't see that. Did he have to throw it outside the guy? He should've just thrown it right at him and hit the guy, then it's interference...he'd be out. He was still in fair territory when he threw it." (Davey Johnson, via postgame interview/MASN...
