The Detroit Tigers lost their 19th and final game of the season against the Cleveland Guardians Wednesday in a showcase of ugly baseball that mercifully ended at 8-4 following a six-run eighth from the hometown victors. The win gives Cleveland the edge in the season series, 10-9, and pulls the all-time series even (1,144-1,144). Things

It may have taken a few times to review and get right, but the Tigers notched their second straight win last night as they took the third game of the series from the Guardians. They also evened up the season series vs Cleveland and now have a chance to take a season series from them

In a moment custom-built for one of those trendy ultra-serious sports documentaries, Mike Gambino was in the middle of a sentence when he interrupted himself with a curse. “Aw, shit.” “I really wanted him back,” he said, after a somewhat uncomfortable pause. “Sorry about that. One of our kids — I was hoping he would

For what seems like the first time in 2022, the Detroit Tigers had a replay review and the umpires on their side in a 4-3 win over the Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday night. The victory was bookended by two big calls that helped the Tigers in crucial moments, both of which were the correct calls

The Detroit Tigers finally snapped their losing streak which extended to eight games before prevailing over the Cleveland Guardians in the nightcap of a Monday doubleheader. The visitors got another solid start from Drew “Clutch” Hutchison but the offense struggled against the home team’s pitching, resulting in the loss. But the Olde English D got

The High-A West Michigan Whitecaps had quite a week. On August 5, the Tigers’ 2022 first-round draft pick Jace Jung and fellow prospect Izaac Pacheco were added to the roster and put up an 11-run offensive showing against the Lansing Lugnuts. Jung’s night ended with an opposite-field hit, but it was Pacheco who captured the

The Tigers managed a split of today’s double-header against Cleveland, losing the day game but rallying and blasting past the Guardians to take the nightcap, ending a frustrating eight-game losing streak. In the first game, Drew Hutchinson continued his surprise (as in surprise, he’s pitching for the Tigers!) season against struggling Guardians pitcher Aaron Civale,

Just a note that I’ll be up in ye olde Keeweenaw Peninsula this week for my first vacation of the year. Feels like it’s been much longer. We’ll be back on the minor league coverage next week, assuming I don’t do anything too foolish in the backcountry. Have a good week, and thanks as always

The Detroit Tigers will head into the off season in October, 2022, secure in the knowledge that changes are needed. Once a new General Manager is in place, changes are needed primarily to the lineup, with some shoring up to do in the starting pitching rotation, depending on the health reports for their beleaguered, banged

Hey, it’s Sunday baseball! There was a very unreliable strike zone! The White Sox wore their throwback alternates. Anyway let’s look at what happened in the game. Lance Lynn was on for the White Sox and Tyler Alexander and his epic mustache took the mound for the Tigers. Lynn allowed one infield single to Javier

After a deeply quiet trade deadline, the writing seemed to be on the wall, and it didn’t take long after that for the moment many have been waiting several seasons for: the ousting of Al Avila. While Al is, by all accounts, a wonderful guy and it’s hard to celebrate anyone getting axed, the simple

It has been a rough week for the Detroit Tigers, who dropped their sixth-straight game on Saturday night to the Chicago White Sox in a 6-4 loss on the road. Matt Manning regressed a bit in this one after tossing a couple of gems upon his return from the injured list, and despite a flurry

Matt Manning’s command wasn’t as good as last time out, and the Sox nickel-and-dimed him to death while the Tigers’ offense couldn’t build on an early break as they lost 6-4 on Friday night. The Tigers had a chance to get out to a quick start. With one out, Victor Reyes and Javier Báez each

The Detroit Tigers’ losing streak reached the five-game mark on Friday night when they dropped the opener of a three-game weekend road series to the Chicago White Sox, 2-0. Daniel Norris’ return to the Olde English D was much more triumphant than many expected, as the hurler — who has been used almost exclusively as

Sometimes it’s easy to forget how lucky we’ve been to watch our very own Future Hall of Famer, José Miguel Cabrera (Torres), for so many years here in Detroit. He’s been at this baseball thing for quite a while, and even though his status heading toward the final year of his contract in 2023 might

Omaha Storm Chasers 5, Toledo Mud Hens 0 (box) Starter Austin Bergner surrendered a pair of early home runs, and the offense just never got anything going in this one. Bergner was a bit wild, walking four and surrendering just two hits, both of them dingers. He struck out six but was bounced in the

Three hundred and eighty-one days ago, Daniel Norris pitched the eleventh inning for the Detroit Tigers — a 6-5 win over the Twins — and earned the save, the first of his career to that point (and his only one to date). In the ensuing eons, much has happened: civilizations rose and fell, animals and
