Indians' Bradley Zimmer: Mashes pair of doubles Friday

Zimmer went 2-for-3 with two doubles, an RBI, and two runs against the Giants in Friday's exhibition game.

In the top of the fourth inning, the highly touted prospect lined an RBI double off Giants ace Madison Bumgarner. Zimmer then showed his speed by scoring from second when the next batter hit a single to left. "He played a good game," Indians manager Terry Francona said of Zimmer. "He hit the ball, he used the whole field. He's strong enough to get it over guys' heads, and his speed on the bases, first to home, is probably as good as anybody. He can fly. His strides around the bases are beautiful." The 24-year-old outfielder has done everything in his power this spring to prove he's ready. Zimmer is 10-for-27 with two home runs, three doubles, eight RBI and nine runs in 12 Cactus League games. His 1.137 OPS is better than any of the 30 players with at least 26 at-bats this spring.
