Before the Detroit Tigers caravan kicked off, Jeff Riger and I had a chance to sit down with the newest Detroit Tigers outfielder Justin Upton.

Upton told us how he beats his brother (Melvin Upton) in golf and he carries an eight handicap. That's pretty darn good and Upton showed off his skills at the Waste Management Phoenix Open on Wednesday.

The 16th hole at TPC Scottsdale's Stadium Course is known to be the rowdiest hole in all of golf and Upton gave the fans a little show.

Upton was paired in the Waste Management Phoenix Open's Annexus Pro-Am with professional Kevin Na.
