Cleveland's Jason Kipnis (hip) sitting on Tuesday

Cleveland Indians second baseman Jason Kipnis is out of Tuesday's starting lineup against the Cincinnati Reds.

What It Means:

Kipnis will sit out tonight after leaving Sunday's game with right hip tightness. Expect the second baseman to return sometime this week if he doesn't need a stint on the Injured List.

In 179 at-bats this season, Kipnis is hitting .218 with 2 home runs and 15 RBI.
