Jonathan India has been impressive thus far as a Cincinnati Reds rookie, so what could possibly be missing? A good nickname, at least according to the Bally Sports Ohio announce crew.
John Sadak, Barry Larkin and Jim Day spent part of Sunday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals trying to think up a nickname for the second baseman.

Much was made of India's resemblance to Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow character in the Pirates of the Caribbean movie franchise. That's when inspiration struck Day.
Through his first three games, India is 5-for-11 with a double and two RBI. He drove in a run and scored a run in the Reds win over the Cardinals on Sunday.
Time will tell whether or not the nickname sticks.
