Dovydas Neverauskas never expected to make history
DETROIT — Growing up in Lithuania, Dovydas Neverauskas didn’t think much about his first opening day with a Major League Baseball team. Back in the day, he couldn’t watch American baseball on TV, and in any case, he knew his chances of making the big leagues were slim.
“No clue I’m going to make it,” Neverauskas said. “Growing up, this was my dad’s dream more than mine because, you know, we don’t have MLB channels back home, back in the day. … He believed he can grow up a major-league player.”
