His performance, along with his .333 batting average and an OPS of 1.833 in that game, underscores his threat to opposing pitchers.


The Tigers' roster boasts several other notable performers such as Spencer Torkelson and Kerry Carpenter, who have both shown their ability to impact games positively.
