Tigers are ...
10-5 vs. AL East
12-10 vs. AL Central
9-9 vs. AL West
2-3 vs. NL
So, 23-22 vs. everyone outside the AL East.

June 10 in Tigers history:

1903 - Detroit SS Kid Elberfeld? suspended for abusing an umpire? is traded to the New York Highlanders for veteran infielders Herman Long? 37? and Ernie Courtney. The Highlanders' first trade is a good one as "The Tabasco Kid"? currently hitting .341? will be a key ingredient in New York's rise as contenders in 1904. Elberfeld had also been accused by Tiger manager Ed Barrow of deliberately throwing games recently as a ploy to get himself traded.

1957: Frank Lary gives up a 3rd-inning homer to Mickey Mantle in Detroit? but still beats the Yankees? 9 - 4. Mantle now leads the American League with 15 homers. Tigers homerun hitter for the day include Harvey Kuenn SS, 2 from Charlie Maxwell LF, and Al Kaline CF.

1958 - The Tigers fire manager Jack Tighe after a 21 and 28 start to the season? replacing him with Bill Norman.

1984: At Baltimore, the Tigers sweep two from the Orioles? winning 10 - 4 and 8 - 0? before 51?764 fans. Kirk Gibson has six hits and six RBIs in the two games? while Alan Trammell and Howard Johnson each have 5 hits. Lou Whitaker scores 5 runs in game 1. Reliever Doug Bair wins the opener and Dan Petry allows just 3 hits in the nitecap win. The Tigers record now is at 43 and 14, as they continue to steamroll through the league on their way to an historic season.
