TIGERS TWINS

Moments after Javier Baez finally gave the Detroit Tigers something to cheer about Tuesday, the team gave the game right back to the Minnesota Twins with an embarrassing mess of mistakes on the final play.

They held out until the final week of the season, but with a loss Tuesday in Minnesota, the Detroit Tigers guaranteed they will finish with a losing record for the fifth year in a row.

The Detroit Tigers almost blew a 10-run lead, then almost blew a seven-run lead, allowed seven home runs and still managed to beat the Twins and earn a series victory.

If you were asleep by 11 p.m. Tuesday, you missed one of the most exciting moments of this Detroit Tigers season.

Monday’s series opener against the Minnesota Twins was a disappointing one for the Detroit Tigers, as they lost their eighth straight road game and fourth straight game overall.

The Detroit Tigers put on a show in their first home stand of the second half, winning all seven games against the Minnesota Twins and Texas Rangers.

The Detroit Tigers announced four major roster moves to begin the second half of the season, including the long-awaited replacement of Nomar Mazara with Derek Hill.

We’ve reached the unofficial midway point in the Detroit Tigers’ season, and even though an otherwise promising couple of months were derailed by an ugly weekend in Minnesota, prospects and draft picks are the talk of the town.

A costly base running decision proved to be the difference Wednesday as the Detroit Tigers lost the rubber match against the Minnesota Twins.

Akil Baddoo’s hot streak isn’t coming to an end just yet. In the first at-bat of his fourth MLB game, Baddoo crushed a triple into the gap that gave the Detroit Tigers an early lead.

The Detroit Tigers aren’t exactly loaded with offensive talent, but Wednesday’s starting lineup might be the best version this roster allows.

Akil Baddoo only got one at-bat Tuesday, but he sure made it count.

It’s the first Mize Day of 2021, and the Detroit Tigers’ top pitching prospect is off to a hot start!

On Easter, Detroit Tigers rookie Akil Baddoo blasted the first pitch of his major league career over the left field fence. In his second game, he decided to make it a grand slam.

Nobody the Detroit Tigers put into the game Monday could stop the Minnesota Twins, except for infielder Harold Castro, who took the mound for a hilarious inning.

The Detroit Tigers committed a comedy of errors in Monday’s blowout loss to the Twins, but none was more memorable than Gregory Soto throwing a pitch more than nine feet above the plate.

The Detroit Tigers were fun to watch in their first series against the Cleveland Indians. On Monday, their first game against the Minnesota Twins was straight up not a good time.

The Detroit Tigers game against the Minnesota Twins scheduled for Monday afternoon won’t start on time, the team announced.
