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 […]

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 […]
Tigers try to prevent road sweep by Royals on Sunday afternoon
The Detroit Tigers’ woes continued on Friday night, losing for the fourth straight time and seventh of the last eight games in a 3-1 final against the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium. The offense has been arctic cold of late, scoring just seven runs over those four straight losses, which left no breathing room […]
Bats stay cold as Michael Wacha leads KC to a series win
Ever since the Chicago White Sox series last week in which the Tigers got swept, the wind seems to have gone out of their offenses’ sails. The Tigers pitched pretty well in this one, but the bats were asleep yet again as they dropped their seventh game in their last eighth by a score of […]

Andrew Sears to be promoted from Triple-A Toledo, per report
Left-hander Andrew Sears is reportedly on his way to Detroit. The Tigers 11th ranked prospect on our preseason rankings, Sears has shown out in two Triple-A appearances since being promoted from Double-A Erie back on August 11. The X account Dr. Degenerate, apparently the burner account for someone with good sources, reported on Saturday that […]
Tigers try to even up series against Royals on Saturday evening
The Detroit Tigers opened up the second half of their six-game road trip on Friday night with a 5-2 loss to the Kansas City Royals, extending the latter’s winning streak to seven games. Troy Melton came close to throwing a quality start, but the bullpen did as it has been wont to this season and […]
Malachi Witherspoon helps lead Lakeland to fifth straight win
Iowa Cubs 8, Toledo Mud Hens 3 (box) Jackson Wolf’s outing crumbled in the fourth as the Cubs roared back to win and even the series on Friday. The left-hander was actually pitching well until he got into a jam in the top of the fourth. With runners on, Wolf failed to make a good […]
The Tigers help extend Kansas City’s winning streak
The Tigers’ woes continue as they dropped their Friday game to the Royals 5-2. After a, shall we say, unpleasant series against the Pirates, the Tigers had a day to rest and reflect before heading to Kansas City to take on the Royals. Hopefully a break in the city of Hallmark and BBQ would be […]

Lucas Elissalt strikes out 10 in SeaWolves’ victory
Iowa Cubs 5, Toledo Mud Hens 4 (F/10)(box) The Cubs fought back with runs in the ninth and then the 10th to win in 10 innings. Austin Gomber got the start for Toledo, and the veteran lefty allowed two runs in 3.1 innings of work. The Hens got on the board in the bottom of […]
Bryce Rainer homers in fifth straight game, Ben Jacobs spins another gem
Toledo Mud Hens 2, Iowa Cubs 1 (box) Sawyer-Gipson Long, Beau Brieske, Brenan Hanifee, and Ricky Vanasco combined to dominant Cubs pitching as the Hens took a 2-0 lead in the series with a walkoff victory. Gipson-Long’s first season back from Tommy John surgery has gone quite badly, but he was on in this one. […]
Kenley Jansen snatches defeat from the jaws of victory
Skenes v. Jobe? Holy mackerel, what a matchup! Well, indeed, on paper it looked to be a game in which the starters would go deep and we’d all be treated to a classic pitching battle. Instead, neither starter stuck around particularly long, the bullpens took over, and in the bottom of the ninth the Tigers […]

Tigers look to take rubber match from Pirates on Wednesday afternoon
The Detroit Tigers were unable to seal the deal on Tuesday night, falling to the Pittsburgh Pirates, 4-1, to even the weekday series at PNC Park. Brett Callahan hit his first major league home run, but that was all the offense the good guy got while Keider Montero was extremely mid on the mound for […]
Bryce Rainer and Zyhir Hope go yard, Andrew Sears deals for Mud Hens
Toledo Mud Hens 9, Iowa Cubs 2 (box) The Hens got another brilliant outing from Andrew Sears and added to a big lead all the way through this one. Things did not start off so well. Brant Hurter was sitting 89-90 mph and couldn’t get out of the first inning, as he gave up a […]
A stellar Keider Montero start stumbles in the sixth for a Tigers’ loss
It only took two hours for the Pirates to beat the Tigers 4-1 on Tuesday night. After Monday’s win that nearly imploded in the later innings, the Tigers were hoping for a slightly smoother time of it on Tuesday, and also hoping to clinch a series win against the Pirates while they were at it. […]

Tigers seek series-clinching road win vs Pirates on Tuesday night
The Detroit Tigers snapped their three-game losing streak on Monday night with an 8-5 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park. At one point, the good guys had a seven-run lead, but a four-run seventh inning made things a little too close for comfort. Taking the mound for the Motor City Kitties seeking to […]
