Tigers' Daniel Norris: Begins rehab assignment

Norris (groin) started a rehab assignment with the Gulf Coast Rookie-League team Saturday.

This marked his first appearance since he suffered the groin injury on Apr. 30. Norris pitched two innings, allowing one unearned run on one hit and one walk while striking out a pair. It's expected that Norris will require a lengthy rehab assignment, so a target date around early-to-mid September seems appropriate.
