They scored 22 runs in the three games at Fenway, that after scoring 10 in the first six games on this trip, through Chicago and New York. The downside, though, is the pitching and defense faltered, and after losing the finale to
Tigers manager A.J. Hinch addresses the media following another roller coaster game for the Tigers at Fenway that sadly ends up in a loss. #Leinenkugels
Today’s rubber match in the Tigers-Red Sox series proved to be a boxing match. Drunken boxing, to be specific Unfortunately, while Detroit had a strong offense all day, they took more punches than they dealt as the two teams combined for six errors only by the mercies of the official scorer. Red Sox win, 12-9,
If the Tigers needed a reminder of the value of putting the ball in play, this series at Fenway Park was it. Their 12-9 loss to the Red Sox in Thursday’s rubber match ended up becoming an example of Murphy’s Law. Four of their eight runs either scored or reached base on infield hits. Three

When the Detroit Tigers win games, it usually won’t be pretty. The worst team in baseball made that clear Wednesday night as mist attacked Fenway Park.

The Detroit Tigers have sent left-handed reliever Derek Holland to the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Monday, with a left shoulder strain, the team announced Thursday.

Boston — So much happened Wednesday night in the Tigers’ 6-5, 10-inning win over the Red Sox, we need to look back at it one more time before moving forward. Hinch did what?

Riley Greene had been hitting the ball hard in his first two games for Double-A Erie; he just hadn’t hit it far. That changed in his final at-bat Wednesday, when the Tigers’ No. 2 prospect hit his first Double-A home run in grand style. Greene, the No. 17 prospect on MLB Pipeline’s Top 100 list,
Boston — Rain was pouring down and the tarp was on the field Wednesday, but out of the Tigers dugout trudged lefty Derek Holland, bullpen catcher Jeremy Carroll and head athletic trainer Doug Teter. Holland threw a handful of pitches off flat ground, conversed with Teter and walked back in. Now we know what that was
What Major League organizations boast the top Minor League farm systems? It’s time to answer that familiar question in a new way. Instead of considering the quality of the players in each team’s system, MLB.com’s Josh Jackson and Ben Hill utilized a different approach.
