Travis Kelce roots on 'Dirtbag' Jason Kipnis to inside-the-park homer, 100th of his career

Former UC Bearcats football standout Travis Kelce is a proud Cleveland Heights High School product known to boast that he was #HeightsRaised, and still roots for Cleveland teams including the Indians. And fortunately for Kelce, his Kansas City Chiefs play in the same city as the Tribe's American League Central rival Royals.

The stars aligned Sunday for Kelce in Kansas City, as he was behind home plate chanting, "Here we go, Dirtbag, here we go!" with Indians infielder Jason Kipnis - wearing "Dirtbag" on his back, for MLB Players' Weekend - at the plate, seeking his 100th career home run.
