Interestingly, Hank Greenberg appears to be the only Tiger player ever, with the initials HG.

Edited to add:

However, Greenberg was with the Tigers from 1933 - 1946, except for 1942 - 1944, when he served in WWII. He went to Pittsburgh in Jan 1947, and played for the Pirates that season. According to Chris Creamer's website, the Tigers wore caps with the orange "D" from 1947 - 1957, so it appears that the cap could not be Greenberg's.
