DETROIT -- For the second time in three years, super utility player Don Kelly has won the Detroit Tigers' Tenth Man Award as voted on by The Detroit Baseball Society.

The 33-year-old Kelly will be honored at the 13th Annual Detroit Baseball Dinner on Jan. 25 at Bloomfield Hills Country Club.

It's the second time in the award's three-year history that Kelly has been named the recipient. Quintin Berry was honored in 2012.

The award recognizes a Tigers player who is not typically in the starting lineup on a regular basis, but whose contributions made him particularly valuable during the season.

"Don Kelly was always able to make a smooth transition to any position in which he was needed," Steve Clarfelt, president of the Detroit Baseball Society, said in a statement. "He is a true class act."

Kelly, who

to return next season, hit .222 with six home runs and 23 RBIs this past season. He played six different positions in 2013, mostly in the outfield.

A career .229 hitter, Kelly has spent six years in the majors, including five with the Tigers.
