Webvideo highlights from the Tigers rain delayed win over the cubs.
 
August 19 in Tigers and mlb history:

1917 - Coaching at third base in a 1 - 1 game against Washington, Ty Cobb gives baserunner George Burns a shove when Burns stops at third on a long hit; Burns keeps going and scores the winning run. Clark Griffith protests, and Ban Johnson upholds him, as the rules now ban coaches from touching a runner. The game is replayed, and Washington wins 2 - 0.

1921 - At the age of 34, Ty Cobb becomes the youngest player to collect 3000 hits when he singles off Red Sox hurler Elmer Myers in a 10 - 0 Tigers win. It takes him just 2,135 games to do that. LF Bobby Veach is 4 for 4, and the Tigers bang out 19 hits. Only RF Harry Heilmann is hitless but still batting .403 on the season.

1941 Hal Newhouser walks 10 batters in a game for the only time but wins anyway: Tigers 12, Yankees 3.

1950: The Gillette Safety Razor Co. pays $800,000 for TV rights to the World Series. Radio rights will add another $175,000 more.

1951: Wearing uniform number 1/8, forty-three inch tall Eddie Gaedel walks on four pitches from Tigers' Bob Cain in his only major league appearance. Bill Veeck's idea of playing the midget was legal at the time but is later outlawed.
