The weekend series between the Detroit Tigers and Toronto Blue Jays has unexpectedly produced a pair of pitcher’s duels thus far, with the former taking Friday night’s affair in extra innings while the latter struck back on Saturday with a shutout win of their own. Today, the two will tangle once more to decide who
TORONTO — The revitalization of Michael Fulmer is best understood once you see how he slid to the the lowest point of his baseball career. Acquired in a 2015 trade deadline deal from the Mets for Yoenis Cespedes, he hit it big quick: 2016 American League Rookie of the Year, followed by a 2017 All-Star
Miguel Cabrera’s 19 seasons have been filled with home runs, from No. 1 (June 20, 2003) as a 20-year-old in Marlins gear, to No. 499 (Aug. 11, 2021) as a wizened veteran in Detroit Tigers gear. And while we know those milestones — as well as Nos. 200, 300 and 400, which arrived in 2006,
The SeaWolves dropped their fourth straight game to the Richmond Flying Squirrels by a 14-4 final on Saturday night at The Diamond.

TORONTO — For the second game in a row, the Detroit Tigers failed to attack the left-handed starter on the mound. On Friday, the Tigers pulled off an improbable extra-inning victory over the Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Centre after lefty Robbie Ray frustrated them with eight innings of one-run ball. He allowed five hits — without a
Toronto — AJ Hinch understands where the questions are coming from. He, like everyone else, cannot wait to celebrate Miguel Cabrera’s 500th home run. But, as he says almost daily now, that’s not the primary focus for him, for the Tigers or, honestly, for Cabrera. “He’s not trying to homer every at-bat,” Hinch said following

Well this one was a bit of a reversal from Friday night’s contest. A tight, well pitched game where the Blue Jays scored first once again, but this time the Tigers lineup didn’t have the mojo for a comeback and fell 3-0 to even the series at a game apiece. Much like Tyler Alexander on
TORONTO — Not counting Justin Verlander’s second career no-hitter, the last time a Tiger reached a milestone number at Rogers Centre, Mike Maroth took his 20th loss in 2003, becoming the first Major Leaguer with a 20-loss season in 22 years. The Tigers would love to put Miguel Cabrera’s 500th home run in the history
Toronto – Nobody had to tell Zack Short he needed to change something. You get seven hits over four weeks and strikeout 30 times, every third at-bat — you know you better fix something pronto. “I mean, I couldn’t even draw a walk,” Short said before the game Saturday. “I was swinging at everything. First time
TORONTO — Zack Short took so many early batting practice swings one afternoon during the Tigers’ recent homestand, his hands had to be hurting. He began with a nearly empty stadium and finally ended when the rest of the team needed to get its swings in. All that work seemed worth it in the Tigers’
TORONTO — Watching Detroit Tigers shortstop Zack Short take swings — so many swings — before games is exhausting. Now imagine being Short, who actually has to take those hacks to transform his mechanics during his debut MLB season. The benefit of his adjustment was displayed Friday. He drilled a crucial line-drive single to left against left-hander Robbie Ray in

Toronto – Blue Jays television analyst Buck Martinez played 17 years in the big leagues. He managed and coached in the big leagues. There isn’t much that he watches on a daily basis that he hasn’t seen before. But some of the things skipper AJ Hinch did in the Tigers’ 4-1 win here Friday —
TORONTO — Detroit Tigers center fielder Derek Hill is back. Needing a spark defensively and on the bases, the Tigers reinstated the 25-year-old from the injured list Saturday before the second of three games against the Toronto Blue Jays. He has been sidelined since an Aug. 10 collision in the outfield in Baltimore with fellow
