Tigers' Parker Meadows: Elevated to leadoff spot

Meadows will start in center field and bat leadoff in Friday's game versus the Marlins.

It's the first time since June 14 that Meadows has occupied the leadoff spot. Each of his first five starts back from the injured list have come from the bottom-third of the lineup, but he's earned a move up by going 7-for-15 with two home runs and a 3:1 BB:K.
