A two-out walk proved costly for left-handed reliever Daniel Norris in the sixth inning, especially with the Detroit Tigers‘ anemic offense facing one of the best pitchers in baseball amid a brilliant performance. After the walk, San Francisco Giants veteran Evan Longoria blasted a slider that stayed in the strike zone for a two-run home run.
Detroit — Maybe the Giants, playing in National League and on the West Coast, hadn’t got the memo about Willi Castro’s throwing arm. If not, he delivered it in person Tuesday night. In the fifth inning of the Tigers’ 3-1 loss to the Giants at Comerica Park, Mike Yastrzemski tagged and tried to advance to second base
TOLEDO – The Toledo Mud Hounds fell in the late innings to the Louisville Bats by a score of 7-3.

Elvin Rodriguez followed Pineda with 3.0 innings of relief, *TOLEDO – *The Toledo Mud
The Detroit Tigers were expecting catcher Jake Rogers to return in 2022. He underwent Tommy John surgery in September 2021, began his throwing program in March and appeared on track to begin his rehab assignment in August, which would’ve lined up a comeback in the big leagues next month. “I don’t see that being probable,” manager

Detroit — While we are busy adding things to the new general manager’s to-do list, even though there remains no timetable to the actual hiring of a new GM — he or she can thank us later — the Tigers this offseason will be facing some potentially thorny questions regarding which prospects to protect from the Rule 5

Robbie Grossman had a career year last season with the Detroit Tigers that included a 20/20 season. This year, like many other Tigers hitters, he seemingly forgot how to hit, at least from the left side of the plate. He was traded to the Atlanta Braves on Aug. 1, where it was once thought that…
Speaking of teams whose 2022 season hasn’t gone as planned, the Tigers will welcome in the San Francisco Giants for the first of two on Tuesday evening. Last year, the Giants appeared on the verge of another classic campaign where they’d come from nowhere to win another title. However, it wasn’t an even year and
For Eduardo Rodriguez, Sunday’s start was just another outing. Announced as the Detroit Tigers‘ starting pitcher, Rodriguez didn’t receive any boos from the fans at Comerica Park, but he didn’t get many cheers, either. He took the ball, shoved five scoreless innings, beat Shohei Ohtani and left the ballpark with his agent. “It doesn’t feel
Carol Cain | Detroit Free Press Business Columnist Detroit Tigers legend Willie Horton faced down many pitchers through his illustrious career in major league baseball. After 15 seasons with the Tigers and a few elsewhere, Horton knows a thing or two about gearing up for battle. But the 79-year-old is blunt as he talked about confronting COVID-19,
No firm timetable has been disclosed by the Tigers. But a team’s need to put a new general manager in place, with some immediacy, hints at a probable September hire, as the Tigers cast a broad national net in their hunt to replace Al Avila as front-office chief. Some names have emerged, as the Tigers

For two innings last Thursday, Reese Olson looked hittable, giving up four hits and a run in the second inning and falling behind hitters. Then came the 94 mile-per-hour
The Tigers announced that right-hander Wily Peralta has cleared waivers and been granted his release. He had been designated for assignment last week. Peralta, 33, had a very nice season for the Tigers in 2021, registering a 3.07 ERA over 93 2/3 innings. There were reasons to suspect that it wasn’t totally sustainable, however, especially
Last season, most everyone thought A.J. Hinch was the perfect manager for the Detroit Tigers. His combination of great communications skills, honesty, and a bright analytical mind gave Tigers fans hope for the future. They had thought they had finally found their guy to lead a young, competitive team.
DETROIT — John Wockenfuss, who spent a dozen years as a valuable catcher, first baseman and outfielder with the Tigers and Phillies, passed away last Friday. He was 73. Wockenfuss was a superutility player well before roster management made it popular. Originally drafted as an outfielder out of high school by the Washington Senators in
Oh, what a year it’s been. Not for the Detroit Tigers, though, yeah, they’ve seen some things, man. No, we’re thinking of Miguel Cabrera, who one year ago today was circling the bases in Toronto with home run No. 500 finally crossed off his career bucket list. Since then, Cabrera has added hit No. 3,000,
According to popular Tigers fan-lore, the Jackson Jobe thing just wasn’t working out. Not ideally. His stuff allegedly was “backing up.” Competition in professional baseball was unmasking an overhyped pitching prodigy who last year exploited prep kids from Oklahoma. Admit your mistake, Tigers, a sizable chuck of Detroit’s audience implored. Acknowledge that you blew it
