Dietrich Enns probably won't have to wait another 1,371 days for another chance to pitch in the major leagues. Enns threw five scoreless innings while allowing only one single and two walks in a start for Detroit on Thursday in the Tigers' 8-0 win over the Athletics. “He's earned the right to pitch again in some capacity,” Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said.

Enns last pitched in MLB in 2021. He played the past three seasons in Japan and Korea before signing a minor-league deal with the Tigers before spring training.

Detroit Tigers score: Dietrich Enns threw five scoreless innings in the first MLB appearance since 2021 for the former CMU pitcher in an 8-0 win.
