Kansas’ Tinsley on regional team

Kansas University junior catcher Michael Tinsley was named to the ABCA/Rawling All-Midwest Region Second Team.

Tinsley was selected in the seventh round of the Major League Baseball Draft by the Cleveland Indians — the 26th Jayhawk to be picked in the top 10 rounds and the highest draft pick among catchers all-time at KU.

He posted the best single-season batting average at KU since 2010 with a .377 (80-for-212); led the Big 12 in average and in hits (80); and ranked third in runs scored (47), and seventh in RBIs (42).
