New Arm
With a runner on third and one out, Brent Clevlen of the Tigers makes the first play of his major league career. Joe Mauer hits a fly ball to shallow center, Castillo tries to score but is thrown out on a close play at the plate. Clevlen makes a nice throw to nail the runner.
Update: It's a really good debut for Clevlen as he doubles against Santana and scores on a Polanco single. The Tigers lead 1-0 in the top of the third.

The funny thing about this is the awful year that Clevlen is having in AA this year, posting a .224/.307/.350 line. That said, his defensive skills may allow him to stick as an extra outfielder the rest of the season.
