August 16 in Tigers and mlb history:

1903 - Toledo native George Mullin, pitching for the Tigers, helps the attendance today (6,000) as the Tigers take on New York in a Sunday game in Toledo. Mullin is racked for eight runs, but Detroit scores 12, led by the hitting of Sam Crawford, who is 5 for 6.

1910 - The Tigers top the Senators 8 - 3, with Ty Cobb stealing home for the second time in his career. It comes in the 4th inning with Bob Groom on the mound.

1915: In the second game of a doubleheader, Tiger rookie Bernie Boland no-hits Cleveland through 26 batters before Ben Paschal singles, his first and only hit of the year. Boland wins 3 - 1.

1947 - Hank Greenberg, now a Pirate in the last season of his career, hits the last of his 35 career multi-home run games. In that same game, teammate Ralph Kiner hits three homers.

1948 - Babe Ruth dies of throat cancer at age 53 in New York. He will lie in state at Yankee Stadium and be viewed by more than 100,000 mourners.

1957 - The Tigers release longtime journeyman swingman pitcher Steve Gromek.

1968: Detroit's Denny McLain is 16-0 on the road after blanking the Red Sox, 4 - 0 in Boston. Tigers catcher Bill Freehan is hit by a pitch in three consecutive plate appearances, painfully tying a major league record. He will be hit a record-tying 24 times this season.

1975 - The Tigers finally end a 19-game losing streak with an 8-0 win over California.

1982 - Richie Hebner returns to the Pirates, who buy the veteran from the Tigers.

2002: After four days of delaying the decision, the executive board of the Major League Baseball Players Association votes 57-0 to set an August 30 strike date. All eight previous negotiations since 1972 have resulted in work stoppages in the national pastime.
