The Detroit Tigers

About the Team

The Detroit Tigers, established in 1894, are a cornerstone of American League baseball and hold the distinction of being the only surviving member of the Western League to remain in their original city. The franchise has celebrated four World Series titles (1935, 1945, 1968, 1984) and 11 American League Pennants, most recently in 2012. Baseball legends like Ty Cobb, Al Kaline, and more recently, Miguel Cabrera, have donned the Olde English D uniform, leaving an indelible mark on the team's history and shaping its reputation as a proud and storied organization.

The Tigers experienced a resurgence in recent years, making multiple playoff appearances in the 2000s and 2010s, though they haven't secured a World Series title since 1984. The team's home, Comerica Park, is a modern ballpark in downtown Detroit, recognized for its aesthetic appeal and fan-friendly features, including a carousel, Ferris wheel, and statues celebrating past Tigers greats. While the team's current performance can fluctuate, the Detroit Tigers maintain a passionate fan base known for its unwavering support, contributing to the vibrant sporting culture of the Motor City.
