Back in 2014, Blue Jays reliever Anthony Castro was still in Rookie ball with the Tigers, a teenager beginning his slow climb to the Major Leagues.
This was the same year the Tigers drafted outfielder Derek Hill in the first round, 23rd overall, and he soon became Castro’s teammate in the Gulf Coast League.
Castro and Hill hit it off and were “super close from the beginning.” During that time, Castro, who’s from Caracas, Venezuela, decided that he wanted to spend more time working on his English.
Early on, grabbing a meal before or after a game played a big part in that. Hill would pull out a translator app on his iPhone and suggest hitting a restaurant. When they got there, it would be Castro’s turn on the app.
