September 13 in Tigers and mlb history:

1909 - Ty Cobb clinches the American League home run title with his 9th round-tripper. It is an inside-the-park drive against the Browns. In fact, all his nine home runs this season are inside-the-park, including two on July 15th. Only Sam Crawford (12 in 1901) has hit more inside-the-park homers in a year than Cobb.

1934: With his fiancee, Edna Mae Skinner of Oklahoma, watching, Schoolboy Rowe halts the Tiger skid with a 2 - 0 win over Washington. He asks in a radio interview: "How'm I doing, Edna?"

1934: Judge Landis sells the World Series broadcast rights to the Ford Motor Company for $100,000. Previously no fee had been charged.

1938 - A special committee names Alexander Cartwright to Baseball's Hall of Fame for originating the sport's basic concepts. Henry Chadwick, inventor of the box score and the first baseball writer, is also honored.

1951: Yankees leadoff hitter Mickey Mantle drives a Virgil Trucks pitch deep into the RF upper deck to start the Yankee scoring. Witnesses say that if Mantle had hit it more to CF, the ball would have traveled 600 feet. Mantle then K's three times, as Trucks drives over New York for a 9 - 2 Detroit win. Trucks adds a pair of RBIs.

1971 - Frank Robinson of the Orioles homers in each game of a doubleheader split with Detroit, The O's win the opener, 9 - 1, behind Dave McNally's 13th consecutive win. The Tigers use 17 hits to win the nitecap, 10 - 5, for Fred Scherman, who pitches 8 2/3 innings in relief of Joe Niekro.

1972: Frank Howard, who is not playing regularly for the Tigers, hits a 3-run homer off Dave McNally of the Orioles for a Detroit victory. It is his 13th career four-bagger off his favorite pitcher.

1995 - Tigers Lou Whitaker and Alan Trammell set a new American League record for joint appearances - 1,915 games.

2001: Due the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, Major League Baseball postpones all games through September 17th. The 91 missed games, the most regular-season contests not played since World War I forced the cancellation of the final month of the 1918 season, are re-scheduled for the week after the regular season was supposed to end, meaning the World Series is likely to extend into November for the first time in history.

2002: The U.S. Senate passes a resolution honoring beloved Tiger broadcaster Ernie Harwell who is retiring at the end of the season. The 84-year-old has been a major league baseball announcer for 55 years.

2011: Justin Verlander and the Detroit Tigers continue to steamroll over opponents. Verlander picks up his 23rd win - the first pitcher to reach that total since Barry Zito in 2002 - when he pitches 7 shutout innings over the White Sox for a 5 - 0 win. Verlander has won his last 11 starts, something no one has done for the Bengals since Hal Newhouser in 1946. The win is also Detroit's 11th straight this month.

The Detroit Tigers will use four starting pitchers in a three-game series against the Minnesota Twins.

Anibal Sanchez will return to the rotation Wednesday night in the series finale against the Twins. Daniel Norris will replace Sanchez in that game.

Sanchez (right rotator cuff strain, Aug. 19) and Norris (right oblique strain, Aug. 20) will return from the disabled list Wednesday to face the Twins. Both will throw 45 to 50 pitches in that game.
