Gleyber Torres has never been one to shy away from the spotlight or from controversy. The two-time All-Star, once seen as a future cornerstone for the New York Yankees, is now shining with the Detroit Tigers.

Detroit has won seven straight series openers since losing opening day at Los Angeles Dodgers. The Tigers improved to 9-2 at home. Brenan Hanifee (1-0) allowed one hit and struck out two in two scoreless innings.

Gleyber Torres had three hits and drove in two runs as the host Detroit Tigers downed the San Diego Padres, 6-4, on Monday night.
