Detroit – It’s always quaint to see folks dressed more for snowmobile trails than for baseball filing into a ballpark on a 15-degree morning. Reappearing Saturday was a scene cut from Detroit’s baseball soul as that annual winter carnival, TigerFest, convened at Comerica Park, minus any known cases of frostbite.
One player was missing from Saturday’s party. Nicholas Castellanos wasn’t around to kibitz with media and fans. He had not been part of the week’s Tigers Caravan as it wended its way through Metro Detroit and the state’s various stops.
