Detroit Tigers Make Historic Riley Greene, Spencer Torkelson Announcement
Detroit Tigers Make Historic Riley Greene, Spencer Torkelson Announcement originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Detroit Tigers improved their Major League Baseball best record to 39-21 on the season Sunday with a 1-0 road win over the Kansas City Royals. Advertisement The Tigers took two of three games from their AL Central rivals one series removed from a three-game sweep against the San Francisco Giants. Detroit got two hits from rising star outfielder Riley Greene against Kansas City as Greene continued his hot start to the season. Greene's strong game put him in elite company with teammate Spencer Torkelson, making him the subject of a historic post on Sunday. Riley Greene smacks a single against the Royals on June 1 at Kauffmann Stadium. © Denny Medley-Imagn Images "They're the two best friends that anybody could have," the Tigers' X account wrote as they shared the news. "Spencer Torkelson and Riley Greene enter June as the only set of teammates in the AL to both have 13+ homers and 40+ RBI," the page wrote. Advertisement "It's the first time in franchise history we've had two players with 13+ HR at the start of June." Greene is hitting .271 on the season while Torkelsen is hitting .235. Greene's production is perhaps more on the expected side than Torkelson's after the Detroit first baseman was listed as a potential cut casualty heading into the 2025 season. Torkelson's bounce back year has given Detroit's lineup a much needed boost heading toward July 15's MLB All-Star Game in at Truist Park in Atlanta. The Tigers will hit the road for a four-game set against the Chicago White Sox starting Monday at 7:40 p.m., with Jack Flaherty taking the hill against White Sox hurler Jonathan Cannon.
