BAD SETBACK: Tigers suffers another injury as key player is to be out of the season.
CHICAGO — Detroit Tigers outfielder Riley Greene returned Thursday to Guaranteed Rate Field, the site of his last regular season game on Sept. 1, 2023.
That night, while playing left field, he banged his right elbow on the turf while diving for a ball and eventually departed the game.
The severity of the injury was shrouded in mystery over the next three weeks before it was ultimately revealed that Greene would undergo Tommy John surgery.
“I was very surprised when I heard the news,” Greene said last year. “I didn’t think you could do this making a diving catch, because I’ve made a lot of them.”
