Summary
Justin Verlander’s comeback bid is heating up as he throws live batting practice at Comerica Park, clocking a fastball at 93 mph — a major milestone in his recovery from hip and hamstring injuries. After sitting since April with just one start this season, the veteran isn’t ready to retire, proving his competitive fire even as the season winds down. The Tigers are honoring him with a career celebration on Sept. 25-26, and a potential final mound appearance could cap his legendary Tigers tenure with a storybook ending. His relentless drive to return shows why he remains one of baseball’s most enduring icons. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
