Baseball is finally back and Tigers fans are patiently waiting for the first home game to begin at Comerica Park. If you are one of the tens of thousands of Tiger’s fans who will be heading to the home opener, April 6th can’t come soon enough. In honor of the big day, Metro Motor Coach invites you to spend a little time with us getting to more about the franchise, its history and what you can expect from the Tigers in 2015, their 121st season in baseball. The Tigers Franchise was founded in Detroit in 1894 making them the oldest continuous one-city franchise in the American League. During this time, they have won numerous championships including 4 World Series Championships, 11 American League Pennants and multiple American League Central Division Championships including the last 4 years. Throughout the team’s history, the Tigers have played in numerous stadiums including their first stadium, Bennett Park. While most of us are quite familiar with Tiger Stadium, their home for almost a century and one of the most popular stadiums in baseball, it has been easy to warm-up to the new home, Comerica Park. Comerica opened in April of 2000 and since then, has been more than a little popular to fans and players alike. From its water feature and its views of the city to its ideal fan sight lines, Comerica is a park for the future. Even when the Tigers aren’t playing, Comerica represents one of Detroit’s most popular destinations for travel. Park tours allow visitors to get a behind-the-scenes look at the park including a trip to the dugout, the clubhouse, the batting tunnel, the Detroit Tigers Walk of Fame and more. As for the team, the Roster is almost set for the 2015 season and as the spring games continue, decisions will continue to be made. Despite the fact that so far, spring has proven to have its fair share of ups and downs, players and coaches say that they are pleased so far.
