Bobby Scales may be 12 years removed from his career playing professional baseball, but the Detroit Tigers color analyst's defensive instincts clearly haven't dulled just yet.
The Detroit Tigers have been on a tear as of late, standing alone as the American League's most dominant force over the past six weeks.With one out in the bottom of the eighth inning of Tuesday night's showdown with the Kansas City Royals, Yuli Gurriel fouled off a 92-mile-per-hour fastball from Tyler Holton. The ball went careening up towards the press box, then play continued as normal.
Scales played professional baseball from 1999 to 2012, appearing in 61 games for the Chicago Cubs across 2009 and 2010. He also spent time in the San Diego Padres, Philadelphia Phillies, Boston Red Sox and New York Mets' farm systems, on top of two seasons with the Hokkaido Nippon Ham Fighters and Orix Buffaloes of Japan's Nippon Professional Baseball.
