Tigers beat Dodgers in another tight pitchers duel
The middle game of a three-game weekend series against the Dodgers continued on a perfect-for-baseball Saturday afternoon in Detroit. Like Friday night’s game it was a low-scoring affair, but unlike the series opener the Tigers came out on top, 2-1… or was it? Keep reading for the exciting conclusion. If patterns are to be believed, […]

Tigers look to even up series with Dodgers on Saturday afternoon
The Detroit Tigers dropped the weekend home series opener to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday night, 2-1. Tarik Skubal threw six frames of one-run ball for the visitors, but that was all the offense would score, leaving no room for error for the relief corps — and of course with this group, there is […]
Michael Massey makes his pro debut in Lakeland, Cris Rodriguez homers again
Toledo Mud Hens 4, St. Paul Saints 0 (box) Jackson Wolf threw a great game, and the bullpen held an early lead to take out the Saints on Friday. The Saints were without prized outfield prospect Walker Jenkins, who was called up to the big leagues for his debut yesterday. The Hens jumped out to […]
Tarik Skubal and the Dodgers bullpen bully the Tigers
The Tigers were unable to spoil Tarik Skubal’s homecoming. The now Dodgers ace had a pretty normal, excellent but nothing special start, while Tigers pitching dealt with a ton of traffic on the bases all night long. They held up enough to make it close, but the offense couldn’t cope with Dodgers pitching, losing 2-1 […]

Tarik Skubal returns to Detroit with emotions still mixed
The Los Angeles Dodgers are in town for a weekend set with the Tigers, and the story will certainly revolve around Tarik Skubal’s return to Detroit. Rarely in franchise history has the organization had such a talented pitcher and it was a pleasure to watch the two-time Cy Young award winner’s career unfold. While Casey […]
Tigers host Dodgers for 3-game weekend series starting on Friday
The Detroit Tigers open up the second half of their current six-game home stand on Friday night against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Things have been tough lately for the Olde English D, having lost 10 of its last 12, and it will not get any easier with one of Major League Baseball’s best teams rolling […]
Maddux Long dominates Peoria in Whitecaps win
Carl Edwards Jr. put together a fantastic start on Thursday as the Hens took down the Saints in St. Paul. After a weird season of injuries, struggling through his major league debut, and then scuffling back in Toledo, Trei Cruz has finally heated up recently. He led off the game with a solo shot. In […]
Ben Jacobs and Cameron Flukey shine on the mound, Max Anderson homers for Mud Hens
Toledo Mud Hens 4, St. Paul Saints 2 (box) The Hens built an early lead and held on in a contest that featured a lot of traffic on the bases, but not a whole lot of run scoring. The Hens missed an opportunity in the second, but in the third they opened the scoring in […]
Rays suffocate Tigers with pinpoint pitching
On Wednesday afternoon the Detroit Tigers looked to continue their recent success and extend their winning streak to… well, two games is still a streak, right? Unfortunately, they were stymied by some return-to-form pitching and just enough offence from the best team in the American League as they lost 3-0. Also, it’s really, really tough […]

Jackson Jobe is back but development is still on the menu
After over a year of rehab and recovery, Jackson Jobe made his triumphant return to the mound on Saturday, August 8 against the Giants. Then he got lit up by the White Sox on August 14. His outing against the Pittsburgh Pirates on the 19th, went much better as he allowed just one earned run […]
Tigers can clinch series win vs Rays on Wednesday afternoon
The Detroit Tigers snapped their six-game losing streak on Tuesday night with a 4-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays at Comerica Park. Jackson Jobe was not incredibly sharp, but combined with the bullpen, the pitching staff stymied the visitors’ bats while a two-run homer from Max Clark helped power the good guys to the […]
Cris Rodriguez goes deep in first A-ball game, Peyton Graham sets stolen base record
St. Paul Saints 8, Toledo Mud Hens 3 (box) Sawyer Gipson-Long was mauled again, and the Hens couldn’t get much going offensively on Tuesday. Gipson-Long surrendered three homers in this one, and gave up four runs in the bottom of the first. The first season after Tommy John can be tough, but it’s hard to […]
Clark homers and bullpen locks down a Tigers victory
The Detroit Tigers looked to stop their six-game losing streak in their Tuesday-night tilt against the visiting Tampa Bay Rays. They did exactly that by hitting a timely home run and taking advantage of some shaky defence in a 4-1 win to even the three-game series at a win apiece. Jackson Jobe made his fourth […]

Can the Tigers even up their series with the Rays? Find out on Tuesday
The Detroit Tigers made it six straight losses and ninth in the last 10 games with a 4-1 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays at Comerica Park on Monday night. Framber Valdez was just good enough to earn a quality start, but his offense failed to find any real momentum. Taking the mound for the […]
Tigers skid extends to six as they drop series opener to Rays
The Tigers continue to lose at the worst possible time, dropping the first game of their series against the Rays 4-1. Let’s throw our memories back a ways, to the last time the Tigers squared off against the Rays. Detroit was down and out, and the Rays were red hot. That series defied all expectations […]

Clayton Campbell hits first Double-A homer, Lakeland scores 12
Iowa Cubs 4, Toledo Mud Hens 2 (box) Iowa closed out the series with its fourth straight win after dropping the first two games in Toledo. The Mud Hens’ offense finally woke up in the eighth, but a four-run deficit proved too much to overcome. Beau Brieske got the start on a planned bullpen day. […]
Tigers return home to host Rays this week starting on Monday
The Detroit Tigers have been struggling of late, having now lost five in a row and seven of their last eight after the Kansas City Royals completed a sweep at Kaufmann Stadium on Sunday afternoon with an 11-7 victory. There really is not much to say at this point as the team’s playoff hopes appear […]
Royals pummel Tigers pitching to complete the sweep
A bit wilder sort of game broke out on Sunday, but the result was the same. The Royals teed off on the Tigers bullpen, including Andrew Sears in his major league debut, all game long. The offense fought back repeatedly, but just couldn’t keep pace as the Royals swept them out of Kauffman Stadium with […]

Peyton Graham homers twice, Bryce Rainer stays hot
Iowa Cubs 7, Toledo Mud Hens 3 (F/10) (box) Toledo let a strong start from Dylan File slip away before things unraveled in the 10th inning. Iowa has won three straight after dropping the first two games of the series. File’s only damage came in the top of the first. James Triantos hit a leadoff […]
