Three games. Two homers. One walk-off hit. Akil Baddoo is quickly making waves not only among Detroit Tigers fans, but across baseball with his hot start to the 2021 season. The former Rule 5 pick broke into the bigs in a big way on Sunday with a home run on the very first pitch of his MLB career.
Thanks to our friends at BreakingT, you can commemorate the moment that a Tigers legend was (probably) born.
