Daz Cameron homers in front of dad, but Detroit Tigers 'haven't outgrown mental mistakes'

Special to Detroit Free Press

Daz Cameron delivered an early Father’s Day present in Anaheim on Saturday.

With his father, former major leaguer Mike Cameron, watching from field level seats, the young Detroit Tigers center fielder smacked his second career home run.

“For me to hit that homer was something exciting for me,” he said. “I’m sure we’re going to be talking about it tonight sometime. … This is the first time he came to a game and saw me play. I’m sure it’s one of those experiences we’ll never forget.
