Lakeland, Fla. — The smirk nearly gave away the punchline.
Manager Brad Ausmus was asked Saturday morning how impressed he was that Ian Kinsler could win a Gold Glove at second base at the age of 34.
“It’s almost as good as a catcher getting one in his mid-30s,” he said.
Ba-dum-bump.
Ausmus. a catcher in his playing days, won a Gold Glove in 2006 at the age of 37.
“Kinsler should have gotten a Gold Glove a long time ago,” Ausmus said.
