Tigers | Victor Martinez has back tightness

Detroit Tigers C Victor Martinez (back, knee) said he dealt with minor back tightness after receiving one at-bat Wednesday, March 6. The injury bothers him when he hits right-handed. "It's just been a little sore in my back, a little uncomfortable to swing on the right side," Martinez said. "It's just a couple days. It's a little tough. I've been out for a year and I've been out there every day swinging, swinging, swinging." He said he isn't worried about his knee anymore.
