CHICAGO — The Detroit Tigers completed their 2021 season on a high note. While sitting four regulars — Miguel Cabrera, Jeimer Candelario, Jonathan Schoop and Robbie Grossman — the Tigers received six innings of one-run ball from starter Tyler Alexander. The crafty left-hander didn’t get much run support, but Daz Cameron came to the rescue in the top of
Chicago — The year began in a snow globe and ended on a dreary, rainy October afternoon on the southside of Chicago. But in between Miguel Cabrera’s line drive home run through the snowflakes on opening day and the 5-2 win in the finale against the Central Division champion White Sox Sunday, a young baseball
On a rainy Sunday afternoon in Chicago, the Detroit Tigers mustered a late rally to pull away from their AL Central foe and end the 2021 season with a 5-2 victory. The Tigers wrapped up their year by playing all the young’uns. Miguel Cabrera, Robbie Grossman, Jonathan Schoop, and Jeimer Candelario all got the day
CHICAGO — While the Tigers took their last at-bats, packed up and headed home Sunday, the White Sox readied for more baseball. The contrast wasn’t lost on Detroit’s young players, before and after Sunday’s season-ending 5-2 win at Guaranteed Rate Field. The Sox are where the Tigers are trying to get, atop the American League
CHICAGO — The Detroit Tigers need Matt Manning. The 23-year-old proved this fact Saturday — the 18th and final outing of his rookie season — by posting a dominant performance against the American League Central-leading Chicago White Sox. Tim Anderson, Luis Robert, Jose Abreu, Yasmani Grandal, Eloy Jimenez and Yoan Moncada have carried Chicago’s offense to an ALDS bid, where they will square off
TOLEDO, Ohio – Kody Clemens and Spencer Torkelson crushed back-to-back home runs for the Toledo Mud Hens on Sunday, but the St. Paul Saints triumphed in the season finale by a 6-4 count at Fifth Third Field. Clemens finished 2-for-4 for with a three-run homer and a single, while Torkelson ended the day 1-for-3 with
Chicago — If you judge Kyle Funkhouser’s season on two ill-timed home runs in his last two outings, you have sadly missed one of the most encouraging career transformations on a team that was full of them this year. “He has been an incredible part of our bullpen,” manager AJ Hinch said before Sunday’s season

That can-opening mishap feels like years ago now. So does Spencer Torkelson’s 1-for-27 Spring Training. As the former top overall Draft pick puts a lid on his first pro season — a year that began with Torkelson looking a bit out of his comfort zone, and not simply for adjusting to third base — the

By Jerry Green | Special to The Detroit News The baseball season was almost over in late September, and the game was changing. There was a young phenom of a ballplayer — a prodigy who hit monumental home runs, but also had amassed precious victories as a pitcher. The nation was emerging from the gripping impact of
Well folks, they say that all good things come to an end and fewer proverbs ring truer, especially when you have reached the conclusion of a sports season. While the Detroit Tigers’ 2021 campaign did not produce the best results, there were certainly far more good times than in years prior during the Gardyball era.
CHICAGO — The final start of Tarik Skubal‘s season shouldn’t define his rookie campaign, but what happened Thursday against the Minnesota Twins at Target Field exemplified how much better the left-hander could be in the future. Just imagine: What if Skubal didn’t give up so many home runs? The 24-year-old allowed five runs in Minneapolis and

We hear from Matt Manning after he throws five scoreless innings and strikes out seven Saturday. #DetroitRoots
Chicago — Robbie Grossman was well aware entering the game Saturday that he needed one more stolen base to join the 20-20 club — 20 home runs and 20 steals. He did not try to hide the fact that he wanted that on his resume badly. “It means a lot to me,” said Grossman, who had never
