Max Clark has reached base in all three of his games with the West Michigan Whitecaps since getting called up to High-A ball on Tuesday, but the Detroit Tigers’ top prospect really found his rhythm Thursday’s win over the Lansing Lugnuts.
The No. 3 pick in the 2023 MLB Draft went 3 for 5 with a triple, while driving in four runs and scoring the game-winning run on a walk-off balk as part of a three-run ninth inning in West Michigan’s 5-4 victory.
Max Clark in a statement after the game made mention about the offers coming his way, “I Know The Tigers Have Made Contacts With My Team A Couple Of Times, Well I’m Still Focused On Improving My Game And Hopefully We Work Out A Deal Soon”.
