Tigers Fans Express Concern for Riley Greene After Eventful Warning Track Catch vs. Twins<\/a> originally appeared on Athlon Sports<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Tigers’ Riley Greene once again manned his left field post, turning in another incredible catch that caused Detroit announcers Jason Benetti and Andy Dirks to stand up and take notice.<\/p>\n

Fans were also wowed by Greene’s catch as he skied upward in a phone booth of space near the left-center field wall, robbing Byron Buxton of what likely would have been a double, triple, or inside the park home run if not for Greene’s heroics.<\/p>\n

Greene appeared slightly shaken as he laid on the ground after the surprising catch.<\/p>\n

He also appeared to be bleeding from his right forearm which caused Benetti and Dirks to comment.<\/p>\n

“He needs a cut man,” Benetti said, appearing to make a boxing or MMA reference.<\/p>\n

“He broke a scab open,” Dirks said, later clarifying, “He broke a scab open from the one in Philly (Philadelphia).”<\/p>\n

“Please get my goat checked out,” one fan said as they shared a still frame of Greene’s forearm.<\/p>\n

“He is bleeding…Someone call Fieger Law!” another fan said with a laughing, crying sideways face emoji, referencing the Detroit based law firm that specializes in injury settlements.<\/p>\n

“Buxton just got ROBBED by Riley Greene! And Riley is dripping blood from his arm. Get a bandage on that!” another fan said.<\/p>\n

Another echoed Greene’s attitude toward his bloody forearm with a classic .GIF from a famous Monty Python movie while others extolled him for his ‘Gold Glove’ caliber defensive skills in the outfield.<\/p>\n
