Manager Jim Leyland said the move was "a no-brainer." Leyland admitted that the move would be temporary, and that Austin Jackson would remain in the spot once he returned. While he's happy with Infante's performance, Leyland doesn't think he's the ideal long-term leadoff hitter.
"He's not an ideal leadoff guy. He doesn't walk much, but he hits pretty good. Omar can hit anywhere. Omar just comes ready to play every day and whatever you ask him to do, he does," Leyland said.
Infante is hitting .313/.344/.444 in 144 at-bats.
With Austin Jackson hurt and Andy Dirks out of the lineup,
"When you lead him off, you're leading him off because he's your only guy in that situation," manager Jim Leyland told MLB.com. "Normally, I wouldn't have him leading off but, with the situation we're in, if you look at the lineup, who else would you lead off? ... The only other guy you'd think about is [Avisail] Garcia, and I don't want to do that."
Infante finished 2 for 5 with two runs scored in an 11-8 defeat. He is hitting .313 with three home runs and 14 RBI in 144 at-bats.
The leadoff hitter was also picked off at first base by catcher Carlos Corporan. He's recorded a walk in three straight games and is batting .318.
Infante has recorded five multiple-hit games in his last 10 contests and has raised his batting average from .303 over that stretch.
