Detroit Tigers general manager Al Avila speaks Monday, Aug. 31, 2020, to break down his organization's decisions at the 2020 MLB trade deadline.
Detroit Tigers manager Ron Gardenhire shouldn't have sounded so disappointed after a 12-1 win Tuesday against the Milwaukee Brewers — the team's sixth straight victory for a 17-16 record with 27 games left in the shortened season.
As he had been since the eighth inning when he bounced out of the dugout with head athletic trainer Doug Teter to check on Jacoby Jones.
Gardenhire announced on WXYT-FM (97.1) on Wednesday morning that the team will call up outfielder Derek Hill to replace Jones on the roster.
He robbed a home run from slugger Miguel Sano in the fourth inning, and in the fifth, he added a diving catch in shallow center field.
