On July 3, 2022, the Tigers selected Hill to the 40-man roster and promoted him to the major leagues for the first time. He started the first game of a doubleheader the next day, making his Major League debut against the Cleveland Guardians.[7] Hill went six innings in this game, allowing one run on two hits while striking out three batters to earn his first MLB win. He became the first Tiger pitcher in team history to pitch at least six innings in his debut while allowing two or fewer hits.[8] He made 17 appearances in his rookie campaign, registering a 3–3 record and 4.03 ERA with 40 strikeouts across 60+13 innings pitched.

In 9 games for Detroit in 2023, Hill struggled to a 9.19 ERA with 14 strikeouts in 15+23 innings of work. On November 17, 2023, the Tigers did not tender a contract to Hill, making him a free agent.[9]
