Saturday was Red Wings Day at the ballpark, as fans packed into Comerica Park for a pleasant day in downtown Detroit and 15,000 of our most punctual fans received a free Tigers sweater! How fun. Unfortunately for the not-so-punctual fans in attendance, they could have used that sweater, as Tigers hitters went ice-cold during Saturday’s

The Tigers wrapped up their first road trip of the year with a loss, but it was a loss after an unexpectedly long string of wins, leaving the hometown crowd at Comerica Park eager to see what the team would have to offer for Opening Day in Detroit. While the weather wasn’t the best, the

The Detroit Tigers are off to a fine start to the 2024 Major League Baseball campaign having won five of their first six games all on the road — albeit against some underwhelming competition. Now, the Motor City Kitties return to the D to open up the home portion of their schedule this weekend against

A week into the season is far too soon to be talking MVP or Rookie of the Year, but it has been enough time to let us glance at starting pitchers, see how the new talent is performing, and actively cringe at some bullpen performances. Yes, “small sample size” will still be the song we’re

The Tigers bullpen and pitching staff generally continued to be the star of the show in Thursday’s doubleheader. Unfortunately, after blanking the Mets most of the afternoon and taking Game 1 in another extra innings battle, they let Game 2 slip away as Tyrone Taylor walked it off for the Mets against Alex Faedo to

The Detroit Tigers have still only played four games as we head into Thursday’s doubleheader against the New York Mets. So it’s far too early to go digging for meaning in the 2024 season beyond being happy they won all four. Still, it is at least interesting that the team has shown its strengths and

After riding high from their three-game sweep against the White Sox to open the season, the Tigers headed to New York to take on a team struggling to get their first W of the year, in the New York Mets. The pitching matchup saw Sean Manaea take on Reese Olson. Manaea was incredibly dialed in

2024 marks the twelfth year since the Detroit Tigers won the American League pennant. Interestingly, in those twelve years, Detroit has actually won their Opening Series more than half of the time! All of 2014-17, the 60-game 2020 season, and 2021. However, for the first time, it’s the A.J. Hinch Tigers that have hit the

The Detroit Tigers opened up their 2024 Major League Baseball campaign last weekend with a three-game sweep of the Chicago White Sox in the Windy City thanks to some solid pitching and some clutch hitting. The strong start has the fanbase amped for what could be a magical summer for the Olde English D. Next

The final rosters for the Double-A Erie SeaWolves, the High-A West Michigan Whitecaps, and the Low-A Lakeland Flying Tigers over the weekend.

Toledo Mud Hens 4, Nashville Sounds 2 (Fri)(box) The 2024 International League season got underway at Fifth Third Park on Friday night, and the Hens came away victorious.

The Detroit Tigers came out on top of a 10-inning affair against the Chicago White Sox on Saturday, 7-6, claiming the season’s first series in two games. It looked like things would be all Tigers early, but Kenta Maeda’s Tigers debut went sour by the second inning. The three-run lead spotted to him by the

Most professional athletes, if you were to glance in their yearbooks, probably excelled at more than one sport before they settled in and chose the one they would spend their career on. While that doesn’t necessarily mean everyone who is a major league caliber baseball player could have done football or basketball instead, there have

Angst over Spencer Torkelson in the fanbase reached a fever pitch around May 31 of last year, when Riley Greene went down with what was initially feared to be a stress fracture of his fibula. Eduardo Rodriguez hit the injured list with a ruptured ligament in his finger. Kerry Carpenter was still weeks from returning
