DETROIT -- The Tigers, who got a boost with J.D. Martinez's return from the disabled list earler this week, suffered a major injury loss Saturday, when Nick Castellanos sustained a non-displaced fracture of the fifth metacarpal bone on his left hand.
Castellanos was hit by a Logan Verrett pitch in the fourth inning of Saturday's game against the Mets. He ran halfway to third base in pain after the impact, but stayed in the game to run the bases, scoring on an Ian Kinsler single. Mike Aviles replaced him in the top of the fifth.
