Power potential paying off for Detroit Tigers lefties vs Chicago White Sox

Spencer Torkelson had one of the best views of anyone in Comerica Park during the Detroit Tigers' home opener against the Chicago White Sox.

Batting out of the No. 4 hole, Torkelson stood at the top of the dugout steps as Kerry Carpenter clubbed two home runs — one pulled into the right-field foul pole and then another the opposite way into the Tigers' bullpen in left. Later on, he was even closer when Riley Greene smoked a no-doubt home run halfway up the seats in right field.

"I got a really good seat, front row," Torkelson said.
