Toledo Mud Hens 7, Buffalo Bisons 5 (box) Jack O’Loughlin’s second Triple-A start after moving all the way up from High-A ball went much better than the first. He only struck out two, sitting 92-93 mph for the most part, but he blanked the Bisons for five innings as the Hens built a lead and

Buffalo Bisons 10, Toledo Mud Hens 7 (box) Bergner allowed a run in the first inning, but Parker Meadows returned serve in the bottom half of the inning with this blast below. The Bisons got another run in the top of the second, but a Jermaine Palacios triple and a wild pitch tied it up

Coming into tonight’s game, the Detroit Tigers had lost four games in a row on their road trip: a sweep at the hands of the White Sox, and a lousy loss in the first game of the current three-game series in Philadelphia. The offense has been, well, offensive. Could they turn it around on Tuesday?

Let’s just get the miserable truth out of the way first. Aaron Nola was really good tonight. Really, really good. He kept a no-hitter going through six and 2⁄3 innings, and his offense supported him the whole way. This was a very bad game for the Tigers. But not as bad as it could have

The Detroit Tigers struggled over the weekend in the Windy City against the Chicago White Sox, scoring just three runs in three games while being swept by their American League Central division rivals. Saddled with those three defeats, the Motor City Kitties are now five games under .500 and back in a tie with the

Roger Craig, whose 12 year major league career led into a long and storied career most notably as pitching coach for the Detroit Tigers and then as manager of the San Francisco Giants, died on Sunday at age 93 after a short illness, according to Giants spokesman. Craig won three World Series rings as a

Indianapolis Indians 11, Toledo Mud Hens 0 (Fri)(box) Indianapolis Indians 10, Toledo Mud Hens 7 (Sat)(box) Indianapolis Indians 7, Toledo Mud Hens 0 (Sun)(box) With the Detroit Tigers rapidly gobbling up the better talent on the Mud Hens, it’s not so surprising that they went down 5-1 in this six-game set. On Friday, lefty Jack

Can’t wait to leave Chicago. Michael Kopech kicked things off on the White Sox mound by taking the Tigers batters 1-2-3. In the bottom of the first, Matthew Boyd fumbled early with a leadoff single to Tim Anderson, but found his footing quickly and finished off the remaining batters in order. The second and third

A very well pitched game from both sides saw no runs driven in by either side. All three came via wild pitches, and the tally of one for the Sox, two wild pitches by the Tigers, tells the tale as the White Sox made it two in a row with a 2-1 victory on Saturday.

Reese Olson’s debut went as well as you could hope on a warm night on the south side. He no hit the White Sox for five innings, racking up six strikeouts with only a walk allowed. Unfortunately the offense couldn’t get much going as the Tigers fell to the Sox 3-0 to open the weekend

A player’s first trip to the major leagues is always special, even if the circumstances are pretty far from optimal. The Detroit Tigers have been absolutely ravaged by injuries yet again and will be hard pressed to continue their solid play in May. For pitching prospect Reese Olson, this is an opportunity. For the Tigers,

It was a tough week for the Detroit Tigers, who dropped two of three at home against the Texas Rangers to wrap up the month of May. But it was not the losses that have the fanbase biting its nails — it was the loss of both Eduardo Rodriguez and Riley Greene to potentially long-term

Toledo Mud Hens 4, Indianapolis Indians 1 (box) With Reese Olson called away to start for the Tigers on Friday, the Hens had to piece together a bullpen game on Thursday. They managed it quite well, and the offense came alive late to break a four-game skid. Garrett Hill got the call as the “starter”

Indianapolis Indians 13, Toledo Mud Hens 1 (box) Well this one was pretty forgettable, at least for the Mud Hens. Austin Bergner was rocked for five runs in the second inning before reliever Matt Wisler took over and quieted things down briefly. Rony Garcia took over in the fourth and spun two scoreless innings before

Spirits among Detroit Tigers’ faithful were low entering Wednesday afternoon’s series finale against the Texas Rangers. Not only had the Texas offense whooped Detroit’s pitching two days in a row. Not only did the team just lose its best pitcher and best position player for indefinite periods less than 24 hours apart. But Joey Wentz,

On Wednesday morning, the Detroit Tigers announced that outfielder Riley Greene has been moved to the 10-day injured list with a stress fracture of his left fibula. He was removed in the fifth inning of Tuesday’s game against the Texas Rangers with what was initially described as lower leg discomfort. There is no timetable for

Erie SeaWolves 11, Richmond Flying Squirrels 1 (box) I’m still unsure what happened to the Erie SeaWolves pitching staff this season, but it remains a hot mess down there even when a top prospect starter has a good game. Wilmer Flores tossed five innings of one-run ball with only a solo home run as the

The Detroit Tigers have done a fantastic job of exceeding expectations as the month of May wanes, leading into the dog days of summer. As of Monday afternoon, the Motor City Kitties were just two games under the .500 mark and a pair behind the American League Central-leading Minnesota Twins, who sit perched atop the
