Jason Kipnis gets his favorite shin guard, thanks 'everybody who helped'

Jason Kipnis is one happy ballplayer.

He's been wearing the exact same shin guard since college but the company that makes the guard no longer produces it in white. 

So the Indians player took to Instagram, telling fans to check their belongings. 

"...If there's anybody out there that has one of these hanging around and wants to send it to me in return for some tickets or memorabilia! I can get you some @lindor12bc signed gear!!!" he wrote. 

The brand he wanted: Easton.

 

Back in action! Thank you to everyone who reached out to help! #askandyoushallreceive

Here's the original request Kipnis put out:

 

Resorting to some last options here... but have worn this model shin guard since college and it's gone missing! @eastonbaseball doesn't even make the white one anymore so I'm wondering if there's anybody out there that has one of these hanging around and wants to send it to me in return for some tickets or memorabilia! I can get you some @lindor12bc signed gear!!! ?. If you have one, DM a pic of proof and we'll talk!! It's gotta be the white one!!
