What Detroit Tigers like about Shao-Ching Chiang, who is making case for roster spot

In a battle of the Detroit Tigers' two No. 1 overall picks, Casey Mize and Spencer Torkelson faced off in batting practice at Comerica Park on Tuesday Detroit Free Press

Detroit Tigers right-hander Michael Fulmer tried to learn Mandarin at the team's spring training complex in Lakeland, Florida, but made a fool of himself in the process.

Besides rehabbing from injuries, Fulmer didn't have much to do once baseball came to a screeching halt because of the coronavirus pandemic. Most players left the facility, so he turned to Shao-Ching Chiang.

They were together — only accompanied by a language barrier — for more than three months.
