The vintage-inspired design is a charming ode to the Tigers’ home run tradition.
We love a good baseball tee, and more than that, we love a good tee that celebrates fun traditions. The fine folks at BreakingT have designed a new vintage-inspired tee that is an ode to the Tigers’ 2024 home run tradition: the pizza spear.
The pizza spear (which, in the true tradition of baseball, has its own sponsor, which is naturally Little Cesar’s), is a spear with three foam pizzas affixed to...

Greene is focused on driving the ball in the air and being more selective in what he swings at.
Don’t look now, but Detroit Tigers outfielder Riley Greene is healthy and on the cusp of a major breakout in the early going. The 23-year-old outfielder seems to be regarded as almost an afterthought around the league, but there’s a good chance they haven’t seen anything yet.
As a 21-year-old, Greene held his own better than fellow top pick Spencer...

It was a tight tilt tonight at the Trop, but a pair of late homers put the Detroiters over the top.
After an easy series-opening win on Monday night in St. Petersburg, this one had a little bit more drama: an early slim lead vanished, but a pair of late-inning home runs helped your Detroit Tigers come back to win 4-2 and ensure a series win.
Kenta Maeda got the nod for his fifth start of the season. Yes, he’s been disappointing so far, and yes, his previous...

After being selected first overall in the 2018 draft, Casey Mize was viewed as the next Detroit Tigers ace. Calling him a savior would be unfair, but with losing seasons pilling the Detroit faithful were stuck looking into the future and dreaming of brighter days.
