Sanchez struck out 17 in eight marvelous innings, and the Tigers routed the Atlanta Braves 10-0 on Friday night. It was a dazzling performance by Sanchez, who broke Mickey Lolich's team record of 16 strikeouts. Yes, even J...

Two of the key components of that year's AL Central division champs reunited Wednesday night to help the Tigers beat the Kansas City Royals 7-5. Victor Martinez drove in a pair of runs and Jose Valverde returned to Detroit with a save. Martinez missed all of last season wi...

All that mattered was keeping grasp of the ball. "It doesn't matter where your body is going to go, just hold onto the baseball," he said. Pena, Detroit's catcher, held onto Prince Fielder's relay throw and absorbed a collision with Justin Smoak at home plate for the final out, and the Tigers outla...

They've barely had a winning season in the last two decades. They've often lost 100 games in a year. And yet, buoyed by the best record in spring training, hope abounds — for the Royals, for most everybody putting on a big league uniform. "There's no reason we s...

(AP) — With his beefy frame and prodigious power, Prince Fielder doesn't look like a player who can simply blend into a lineup. Somehow, the slugging first baseman did just that in his first season with the Detroit Tigers. Fielder signed a $214 million deal early last year, arriving in Motown amid predictable fanfare. Then he hit .313 with ...

"It's nice to have you back in that jersey again," Dombrowski said Monday to his right-hander. It wasn't cheap. Detroit's deal with Sanchez is worth $80 million over five years, a p...
