October 22 in Tigers and mlb history:

1845 - The first known box score appears in the New York Morning News a month after the first set of rules are written by Alexander Cartwright and some his fellow New York Knickerbockers.

1920 - Eight members of the Chicago White Sox are indicted for supposedly throwing the 1919 World Series. Although considered heavy favorites to win the Series, the White Sox lost to the Cincinnati Reds in eight games in what will become known as the Black Sox Scandal.

2000: Although lacking big league managerial experience, Pittsburgh Pirates hitting coach Lloyd McClendon is named as the team's manager, replacing recently-fired Gene Lamont.

2002: Lou Gehrig's consecutive games streak being broken by Cal Ripken, Jr. in 1995 is voted as baseball's most memorable moment by the fans participating in a Major League Baseball and MasterCard promotion. Hank Aaron breaking Babe Ruth's all-time home run record, Jackie Robinson becoming the first black to play in MLB, Mark McGwire breaking Roger Maris' single-season home run record and Gehrig's farewell speech were also in the top five events selected by the fans.

October 23 in Tigers and mlb history:

1945 - Branch Rickey announces the signing of Jackie Robinson by the Brooklyn Dodgers organization. The 26-year old Negro League star will be the first black player to play in Organized Baseball since 1899 and the first in the majors since 1884, paving the way for integration.

Odds & ends:
Avila said Tigers reliever Alex Wilson will remain in the team's bullpen for the foreseeable future.

The Tigers have hired three additional major league scouts and an international scout this offseason, Avila said. The major league scouts will work under Scott Bream, who was promoted to vice president of player personnel. Bream previously served as director of pro scouting and has been with the team for 15 seasons.

In the 115-year history of the American League, three-pitch innings occurred only 76 times.

The National League has been around longer, so it has more such incidents, 97 to be specific.
