Jazz Chisholm does not necessarily know the geometry of it all, not the angles to take or the windswept space to be covered in the manner a veteran centerfielder would. But the former second baseman understands why he was in the outfield for the Miami Marlins first practice Tuesday morning, chasing fly balls and studying his new home.
“I went to [manager Skip Schumaker] and I told him if you need a center fielder and we can’t get one … and even if you get one, I feel like I’ll be better anyway,” he said.
When did he last play center field?
