The Tigers announced their arrival in the American League in 1901 with a game against the Milwaukee Brewers. The Tigers were losing thirteen to four in front of ten thousand fans who had turned up to watch the game.

This pattern has been apparent in much of the Tiger’s time in the MLB; weak openings but stunning turnarounds to finish strongly.

Four time MLB Champions

The team has since then won the league four times. They won their first league in 1935 after defeating the Chicago Cubs. It was followed by their second win in 1945, in which they were again pitted against the Chicago Cubs.

The Tigers beat the St. Louis Cardinals to become champions for the third time. Their fourth and last title came against the San Diego Padres in 1984. It was the first World Series win for the Tigers which they rounded up in five games.
