July 5 in Tigers and mlb history history:

1914 - Hall of Famer and Tigers' Harry Heilmann hits his first home run.

1934 - Lou Gehrig hits an inside-the-park grand slam, as the Yankees beat the Senators, 8 - 3. It is his 4th of the season and 17th overall, passing Babe Ruth's career total. Gehrig will eventually set a career record of 23 grand slams. Gehrig now has 321 career home runs to Ruth's 698.

1947 - Striking out as a pinch hitter in an Indian 6 - 5 loss to the White Sox, 22-year old Larry Doby becomes the first black to appear in the American League. The former Newark Eagles standout will play in the major leagues for 13 years, amassing 1,515 hits, just three less than Jackie Robinson. Tomorrow, he will go 1 for 5 in his first full game at 1B.

1952 - The Tigers fire their manager of four years, Red Rolfe, replacing him with the popular pitcher Freddie Hutchinson a Tigers pitcher for 10 years. Detroit loses over 100 games for the first time in franchises history. Hutchinson, who manages through the Tigers 1954 season, has new blood on the team with players Harvey Kuenn and Al Kaline, and pitchers Billy Hoeft*, and Paul Foytack.

1962 Rocky Colavito hits three home runs and 5 rbi in a loss to the indians.

1969: OF Mickey Stanley plays his 220th straight errorless game and C Bill Freehan picks Paul Blair off third base unassisted. Blair, on third with a triple, strolls too slowly back to the bag after the bat flies out of the hands of Frank Robinson.

1972: In a game against the Royals in Kansas City, Mickey Lolich strikes out the 2,000th batter of his career. In the fifth inning, Lolich fans Cookie Rojas to become the first Tiger hurler to reach the 2,000-K mark. He will end up with 2,679 strikeouts in his career with Detroit, the most by a left-hander in American League history.

1984 - Down 4 - 1 with two outs in the 9th, the visiting Tigers score six runs to beat the Rangers 7 - 4. Lou Whitaker's bases-loaded single scores two, Alan Trammell's single scores another, and Kirk Gibson seals it with a three-run shot down the right field line. Charlie Hough is the loser, while reliever Aurelio Lopez's record goes up to 7-0.

1989 - The Tigers sign amateur free agent pitcher Jose Lima.

1996 - The Michigan Court of Appeals rules against the Tiger Stadium Fan Club, clearing a hurdle for the Tigers to get a new stadium.

2002 - On this date the great Ted Williams, outfielder, manager; All-Star, and Hall of Famer passes away.

2002 - The A?s, Tigers, and Yankees combine for a three-way trade. The Tigers get Carlos Pena and Jeremy Bonderman, the A?s land Ted Lilly, and the Yankees wind up with Jeff Weaver.

2011: Justin Verlander may be headed to the All-Star Game, but it is Dan Haren who pitches a two-hitter, outdueling the Tigers' ace in a 1 - 0 Angels victory. Verlander and manager Jim Leyland are both ejected by umpire Joe West after Verlander exits the game in the 8th inning.
