Cleveland Indians pitcher Kyle Denney won't complain about having to dress like a cheerleader again. The white go-go boots that went with the outfit might have prevented a bullet from seriously injuring his leg.

The bullet caused only a flesh wound, probably because of the tough leather of the knee-high boot, Denney and his trainers said."
