Yes you read right
I was pitching a couple fast balls and knuckle balls to my dad at a BB field and someone was watching and liked what they saw. They advised the Detroit Tigers farm league try outs coming up this summer. Wish me luck y'all.

Fantastic! Good job, Anglewitch!
What was this gentleman? he a scout for the Detroit farm league, or something else? Did you exchange contact info?
Not that you haven't already thought of this... I'd recommend looking him up online, confirm and find out who he is. If he's legit, then reach out to him very soon, while he remembers you, it'll show him you're serious. Have him give you contact info to whoever, or whatever office, that can contact to formally setup the tryout, get info and advice.
You could try to find a local who's done AAA to majors and work with them, make the most of the opportunity.
