The Detroit Tigers had a rough season last year, but spring training is giving fans something to smile about. Their defense has been sharp, and a couple of highlight plays stand out. Derrick Hill made an unreal grab in the outfield that had everyone talking. The ball popped out mid-dive, but Hill somehow scooped it from underneath with an open hand and held tight. He quickly flashed it to the crowd to make sure they caught what just happened.
Not to be outdone, Riley Greene tracked a deep shot from C.J. Cron and timed his leap perfectly at the left field wall. Full extension, glove armpit-high at the top of the wall, and he brought it back for a clean home run robbery. Shortstop Willi Castro threw up the out sign with flair as Greene celebrated. The whole moment had energy, even down to Greene jogging in looking for his missing hat. Cron rounded first thinking he had gone deep, only to realize too late. Greene soaked in the love from the bullpen and teammates, posted up calmly in the dugout like a guy who knows he just made the play of the day.
