June 10 in Tigers and mlb 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.

1921 - Babe Ruth of the New York Yankees becomes the major leagues' career home run leader by hitting his 120th off Cleveland Indians pitcher Jim Bagby in the 3rd inning. The Indians win, 8 - 6. Roger Connor held the record until that time.

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 hitters for the day include Harvey Kuenn, 2 from Charlie Maxwell, and Al Kaline.

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.
