Records two hits in return Hill (ribs) went 2-for-4 in Saturday's 3-0 loss to the Blue Jays.
Impact Hill was making his first start since Aug. 10 after spending the minimum 10 days on the injured list with a left ribcage contusion. He did his part from the leadoff spot, but the Tigers' 2-5 hitters went a combined 1-for-14 with five strikeouts and couldn't bring Hill around to score. The 25-year-old should continue to see regular playing time in center field and atop the order now that he's healthy.
