Detroit Tigers center fielder Parker Meadows spent the night in a hospital following a frightening collision with teammate Riley Greene on Thursday.
Meadows was left bloodied in the outfield and had to be helped off the field in the eighth inning against the Minnesota Twins after appearing to hit his head during the collision with Greene.
“It’s a terrible feeling. I still feel terrible,” Greene said after the game. “He hit my head. I don’t know where I hit him, to be honest, but I just really hope he’s OK.”
The two collided when Twins first baseman Josh Bell, who already had one home run and two singles, hit a shallow fly to left-center field. Greene and Meadows collided hard enough that their caps flew off.
Greene made the catch as Meadows lay on the ground. The broadcast caught blood coming from Meadows’ mouth.
Tigers manager A.J. Hinch joined medical personnel on the field as Meadows eventually got up and was taken off the field on a cart. MLB.com reported that he would be held for observation overnight.
“We’re going to get him checked out for everything, but this one worries me,” Hinch said, confirming that Meadows did suffer a concussion.
Meadows has started 11 of 13 games in center field for the Tigers this season. He went 0 for 3 in the 3-1 loss on Thursday and is batting .250 with two extra-base hits.

I think I missed one of the videos," he says.</p><p>"How? You got to watch that, man!" Xav replies.</p><p>"I don’t have social media," Trudeau explains.</p><p>"Come on. Who runs your Instagram? You don't run it?"</p><p>"It’s... apparently I'm not qualified to run it anymore."</p><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/DJFY3nSxz6v/" data-instgrm-version="4" style="background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);">

Ottawa's lit," Xav agrees.</p><p>Of course, it wouldn’t be a father-son moment without at least one classic safety check. Watching Xav climb through a sunroof in the video, Trudeau immediately slips into parental mode:</p><p>"So here you're wearing your seat belt, right?"</p><p> "Of course."</p><p> "You're hanging out the roof. You were wearing your seat belt?" he asks again.</p><p> "Oh, I was harnessed in."</p><p>Then comes the roast.</p><p> "So here you are, being a cool musician-rapper, and you're getting honked at for going too slow in the fast lane," the 53-year-old remarks.

</p><p>Xav later goes on to explain that <em>Back Me Up</em> marks a shift in his usual lyrical subject matter.</p><p>"My first two were kind of love songs, you know, sensitive heart stuff. And I mean, I’m a sensitive person, but this one's more 'player,' more lifestyle," the 17-year-old explains. </p><p>"So that's why you asked me to watch. Get Dad in here instead of Mom, right?"<br/></p><p> "Exactly."</p><p>Later, as they talk about the video's dancers, Trudeau delivers another burn.</p><p>"These dancers, they were like really good," says Xav.</p><p> "No, they're outstanding. They actually make it look like you can dance. This is what backup dancers are all about... You inherited my dancing genes."</p><p> "I didn't pick up your singing skills. I don't know who I got that from. Mom, maybe?" Xav quips back.<br/></p><p>"Definitely Mom."</p><p>While he throws plenty of jabs along the way, by the time the video ends, Trudeau seems genuinely impressed.</p><p>"It's a great video... It's awesome!" he says.</p><p>Xav's first three singles are available to stream on platforms like Apple Music, Spotify and other major platforms. </p><p><br/></p>
