Tigers base-running outs sting, but not all are errors of judgment

Detroit — The Tigers had two rookie runners thrown out on the bases Wednesday night while the game was still tied.

The way manager AJ Hinch saw it, one was a mistake of aggression, the other a lapse in judgment.

“They were very different,” he said.

Riley Greene led off the fifth inning beating out an infield single. He went to second on a slow-rolling ground ball by Victor Reyes. Javier Báez then hit a ground ball right at shortstop Adam Frazier, who must’ve been a little surprised to see Greene break for third.
