Instead of dreading when a bench player enters the game, there is never a doubt that good things will happen when Romine fills in for a Detroit Tigers teammate.
Lately, he has been lights out at third base, while Nick Castellanos has been recovering from his fractured hand that occurred on August 6.
Throughout the majority of the 2016 season, Romine shared the bench duties with Mike Aviles. Until the Tigers traded Aviles to the Atlanta Braves on August 16. Prior to the Aviles trade for Erick Aybar, Aviles actually got more time in the games that Romine did.
