from the freep

Welcome to our tournament to determine the best Detroit sports nickname.

This was a darn fun bracket to put together. And you can pretty much throw out the seedings -- all sports nicknames are pretty good.

But vote for your favorites below. The first round will end at 11 a.m. Monday. Then come back for the second round.

Also be sure to enter our contest to see how many of these nicknames you can identify. Whoever gets the most will win Detroit Tigers tickets and other stuff.
 
June 24 in Tigers history:

1950: Art Houtteman pitches Detroit to a 4 - 1 win over the Yankees. Yogi Berra's homer is the only Yankee score, as New York loses its 4th straight and 8th in 12 games. Detroit now leads the American League by three games.

1955 - In an 18 - 7 loss to the Tigers, Senator 18-year old rookie third baseman Harmon Killebrew hits his first major league home run off Billy Hoeft.

1962: A marathon between the Tigers and Yankees concludes in the 22nd inning when Jack Reed's home run - his only one in the big leagues - gives New York and Jim Bouton a 9 - 7 victory. Reed replaced Joe Pepitone in the 13th. For the Tigers, Phil Regan takes the loss and Rocky Colavito has seven hits. Bobby Richardson ties a mark by going to the plate 11 times. At an even seven hours, the game is the slowest extra-inning contest in league history and it is the longest game in innings in Yankee history.

1968 - Detroit RF Jim Northrup becomes the 6th American League player to hit two grand slams in one game, connecting in the 5th inning off Eddie Fisher and in the 6th off Billy Rohr, as the Tigers bomb Cleveland, 14 - 3. Denny McLain is the victor. First baseman Willie Smith pitches the last three innings, walking just one and allowing one hit and no runs. Detroit's Don Wert is taken to the hospital following a 6th inning beaning which shatters his batting helmet. He will miss just a few games.

1984: After missing two starts, Jack Morris (12-3) stops the Brewers, 7 - 1. Ruppert Jones and Lance Parrish hit homers for the Tigers, who have drawn 165,000 fans for the 4-game series with Milwaukee. Detroit now leads the AL East by 8 1/2 games.

1998: The Indians trade OF Geronimo Berroa to the Tigers for P Tim Worrell and minor league OF Dave Roberts.

2000: The Tigers trim the Indians 14 - 8, in the second game of a day-night doubleheader behind OF Bobby Higginson's three home runs and six RBIs. The Indians take the first game.

Tigers players birthdays:

from baseball reference
 
Tigers 7 - Red Sox 5: After the team?s repeated failures with a man on 3rd, Jhonny Peralta changed the equation: Stop trying to hit the ball, and let the ball hit you. That 0-and-2 Andrew Miller fastball off Peralta?s thigh pushed in the tying run in the 7th. Miscues set up Detroit?s winning rally in the 8th, and after Torii Hunter?s go-ahead sac fly and a reloading IBB to Miggy, Prince Fielder singled for 2 vital insurance markers. Boston had Justin Verlander on the ropes all day, scoring 4 in 5 innings from 11 baserunners. But once again, Drew Smyly built the bridge, getting 8 outs before Joaquin Benoit got the last 4, with a little help from the ol? Gold Glover.
?Tough 8th inning for Daniel Nava: Pinch-hitting with 2 outs and Ellsbury on 2nd, he struck out to end that half, then ?dropped? a fly to start the home half (same ruling as Revere?s play), putting the lead run on 2nd with no outs.
?Saturday?s slam raised hopes of a breakout, but Victor Martinez went 0 for 5, 3 of those with RISP ? a DP with 2 on, and twice failing to bring in a man from 3rd with 1 out. But he did contribute, in an unaccustomed way.
?Junichi Tazawa since 2012: 78 IP, 84 SO, 9 BB.
?Verlander?s last 9 starts: 6.04 ERA in 50.2 IP, 1.64 WHIP
