Look for Austin Adams as the official Detroit Tigers greeting party for when the Cleveland Indians visit Comerica Park.

The reliever faces his former team this weekend with the Indians in town for three games, and spent batting practice before the series opener catching up with members of his former organization.

Selected as a two-way player from Faulkner University in the fifth round of the 2009 draft, Adams spent eight seasons in the organization, including 53 major league appearances from 2014-16.
