The Detroit Tigers didn’t stand a chance against Cristian Javier, just as they didn’t stand a chance against Framber Valdez on Monday and Hunter Brown on Tuesday. The American League-leading Houston Astros, far superior, came into Comerica Park, put their pitching depth on display and swept the lowly Tigers in three games. In Wednesday’s finale,
We hear from manager A.J. Hinch after the Astros complete a three-game sweep of the Tigers on Wednesday. #Leinenkugels
INDIANAPOLIS, IN – The Toledo Mud Hens defeated the Indianapolis Indians 4-3 on Wednesday afternoon. The Mud Hens were down 3-1 early on, then scored three runs in the late innings to grab the win.

The Houston Astros’ relentless combination of great pitching, strong game plans, good defense, and disciplined approach at the plate just overwhelmed the Tigers in this series. The hometown cats didn’t even play badly, but the Astros showed why they’re the best team in the American League once again, doing everything right in suffocating style to
Detroit — The clock struck midnight on the 2022 Tigers Tuesday night, the 6-3 loss to the Astros mathematically eliminating them from the postseason for the eighth straight season.

When Al Avila was fired back on Aug. 10, Detroit Tigers principal owner Chris Ilitch said he made the move then, as opposed to after the season, to get a head start on the GM search. While history would tell you a much different story, there was just a sliver of hope that Ilitch was…

Toledo Mud Hens 9, Indianapolis Indians 1 (box) The Mud Hens took advantage of six walks from Indy pitching to blow them out on Tuesday night. The Hens struck early and often in this one. In the top of the first, John Valente led off with a walk and Zack Short immediately doubled him home.
Spencer Torkelson looks a little more comfortable these days. Success, of course, is the driving factor. It’s been just nine games, but the 23-year-old — as of 18 days ago — is showing positive signs. This is the beginning of what the Detroit Tigers hope is a strong response to his first-stint failures. The big
DETROIT — The Tigers’ offense showed signs of life Tuesday with help from Riley Greene. His defense, meanwhile, continues to kill hopes of extra-base hits in the depths of Comerica Park. The stare on Alex Bregman’s face after Greene’s latest diving grab spoke volumes to the quality of the catch. The center fielder was nowhere
