The Detroit Tigers came into this Sunday afternoon tilt against the Chicago White Sox, looking for a series sweep. Tarik Skubal was a bit rattled early but settled down. Meanwhile, the White Sox pitchers struggled to locate the strike zone, in particular starter Michael Kopech who was chased early. Still, the struggles of the Tigers

The Tigers made it three in a row on a fun night in Chicago on Saturday. Rookie Andre Lipcius hit his first MLB home run, the bats went off in general, and Reese Olson was tracking toward a Maddux through seven innings of this one. A Tigers party broke out pretty quickly in the first.

After a rough home stand, the Detroit Tigers looked to be happy on the road again on Friday night in Chicago. Eduardo Rodriguez put up a strong outing and the bullpen carried a slim lead to the finish line to win 4-2. The Tigers put White Sox starter Touki Toussaint on the ropes early, but

The Detroit Tigers have struggled since taking three of four from the Cleveland Guardians in mid-August, dropping their last three series along with seven of their last 10 games. Now 14 games under .500 and nine games behind the first-place Minnesota Twins — who are weakly pulling away in the American League Central division —

Iowa Cubs 10, Toledo Mud Hens 7 (box) The Cubs scored last in a game that was a fairly wild, back and forth affair, until both bullpens shut down the scoring over the final three frames. The Mud Hens pretty quickly handed lefty Zach Logue a lead to work with. Justyn-Henry Malloy doubled in the

During the seventh inning of Thursday night’s contest between the Tigers’ Triple-A affiliate, the Toledo Mud Hens, infielder Andre Lipcius and utilityman Wenceel Perez were taken out of the game, and with rosters expanding on September 1, speculation immediately began that they would called up to the major leagues for the first time on Friday.

An afternoon series finale against the Yankees and the Tigers came out big on a sunny Detroit day. Matt Manning squared off against Clarke Schmidt, and had himself a very nice day, so let’s see how this Tigers win shaped up, in case you were working and not playing hooky at the park. Manning issued

Iowa Cubs 7, Toledo Mud Hens 1 (box) With Joey Wentz called up for a spot start in Detroit, the Hens went with a bullpen day. It did not go well as the Cubs evened the series at a game apiece. Rony Garcia got the first two innings, and gave up five runs before getting

The Tigers woes continued on Wednesday. The lineup continued to struggle badly to string hits together, and the pitching staff gave the opposition another large early lead to work with. Not the recipe for success as this brutal homestand finally nears an end. The Yankees got a good outing from Gerrit Cole and blasted four

Toledo Mud Hens 11, Iowa Cubs 6 (box) The Toledo Mud Hens came into this one just a game and a half back of the Iowa Cubs in the West Division of the International League, though still three games behind first place St. Paul. There are still 23 games left in the regular season, but

On a rather strange day in baseball, the Detroit Tigers made a couple of small roster moves. They placed veteran reliever Jose Cisnero on the waiver wire after he struggled badly in August. And with recent lefty addition Andrew Vasquez moved to the injured list with left calf tightness, they claimed lefty reliever Bennett Sousa

The Tigers and Yankees faced off again tonight and it was a rather low-drama outing that did nothing to help the Tigers’ season numbers. Let’s have a look at how it went. The pitching matchup was Tarik Skubal versus Michael King. In the first Skubal allowed a two-out home run to Gleyber Torres to put

The Tigers got a fantastic, if short, start from Reese Olson on Monday night as they welcomed in the last place New York Yankees. Of course, the AL East is a little different beast than the Central. Unfortunately, the offense was pretty abysmal for the third straight game as the Yankees took this matchup 4-1.

The Detroit Tigers have struggled in their past two series after returning home from a successful nine-game road trip. Over the past week, the Motor City Kitties have fallen to the Chicago Cubs and Houston Astros, respectively, two games to one. Things should get easier this week for AJ Hinch’s squad as they host the

Toledo Mud Hens 16, Louisville Bats 2 (F/7)(Gm1)(box)(Sat) Toledo Mud Hens 10, Louisville Bats 3 (F/7)(Gm2)(box)(Sat) Toledo Mud Hens 6, Louisville Bats 1 (box)(Sun) The Mud Hens offense continued to bludgeon Louisville pitching all series long, and swept all three games over the weekend to take the series 4-2. After getting rained out on Friday

Any game that ends 17-4 is tough to recap, but in the waning days of Miguel Cabrera’s professional baseball career, it’s a bit easier to shrug off a blowout and find the silver linings. The Houston Astros battered the Detroit Tigers‘ pitching staff for most of Sunday afternoon, claiming a three-game series that looked within

After a thrilling, come-from-behind, walk-off win on Friday night, the Tigers couldn’t get a whole lot going on Saturday evening — despite the Whale Mural being back in its full splendour — as they dropped a 9-2 decision to the Astros. Eduardo Rodriguez had been solid in all of his previous August starts, except for
