Shoe Toss time!! That time of the year again! Tomorrow at 12 noon! Seems to be the only sunny day so looking forward to seeing everyone at the players lot! As usual it’ll be more than just shoes! Cleaning the locker means bats, batting gloves and more!

The annual gear giveaway is happening a little sooner than Kipnis would have wanted after the Indians fell to the Astros in Game 3 of the ALDS, as he tweeted on Oct. 8:

Definitely not good enough nor the finish we wanted this year.. but I just had to give you Cle fans your props today! Not even counting the ones that left early (that’s on us the players). You guys were so far and away louder than the first couple games! You did your part. ThankU
