TAMPA, Fla. Detroit Tigers prospect Riley Greene isn’t getting babied in his first spring training in big-league camp.
The 20-year-old outfielder got his first start of 2021 against perhaps the best pitcher in all of baseball, New York Yankees ace Gerrit Cole.
The result might not look remarkable in the box score a six-pitch walk but it was a really nice at-bat.
