Tigers starter Casey Mize speaks with the media following a tough outing against the A’s in Oakland. #DetroitRoots
Dana Gauruder | Special to Detroit Free Press A few early long balls made for a very long afternoon for Casey Mize and the Detroit Tigers. Mize gave up three homers — all in the first two innings — for the first time in 10 career starts, and the Tigers lost their third straight game in

Akil Baddoo has rightfully been the talk of the early Detroit Tigers season. His first few games will remain legendary, and him dominating despite never playing above High-A made it all the more compelling.
Nobody in American League history had a higher OPS through his first eight Major League games than Akil Baddoo. Nobody expected the Tigers rookie and Rule 5 revelation to keep up that record pace. Baddoo’s season is going to be a series of adjustments as he experiences his first extended stretch of baseball since Class
Detroit Tigers right fielder Nomar Mazara was placed on the 10-day injured list on Thursday but it will take longer than that for his left abdominal strain to heal. There’s no timetable for his return but it’ll be “at least a couple weeks” before he’s ready, manager AJ Hinch said before Saturday’s game in Oakland,
The Detroit Tigers dropped a tough one on Friday night to the Oakland Athletics despite a surprisingly strong start from José Ureña, getting shut out by a score of 3-0. Instead of starting a new winning streak, the good guys now look to prevent a series loss on its west coast swing. The good news

Dana Gauruder | Special to Detroit Free Press Pitching and defense failed the Detroit Tigers in their series opener at Oakland on Thursday. Their bats went silent on Friday. They were shut out for the first time this season, 3-0, while producing just four singles. Oakland starter Frankie Montas and three relievers overpowered them, racking up 11
The 2021 Detroit Tigers continue to be a tale of two teams. After having one of their most impressive series of the past half-decade with a sweep of the Houston Astros in Texas, they have followed it up with a pair of dud losses in Oakland, the most recent of which was a 3-0 snoozer

Ureña’s first quality start of the season — and first since June 2019 — was spoiled by a Detroit offense that mustered only four hits in its 3-0 loss
