He appeared to suffer a lower body injury, and was able to walk off the field under his own power. He would head to the clubhouse as the inning ended, and has been replaced for the 4th inning.
Torkelson is walking better now but he is headed to the clubhouse between innings. #Tigers pic.twitter.com/GBV89te9WY
