Dillon Dingler returns to action for Tigers after elbow procedure

Detroit Tigers catcher Dillon Dingler made his first spring start on Friday against the Phillies, returning from an arthroscopic procedure on his right elbow. The 27-year-old had been catching bullpens and is now back on the field after a throwing program. In his return, Dingler struck out in his first at-bat but then hit a double, driving in the Tigers' first run.
