September 19 in Tigers and mlb history:

1917 - In the first of two, the host Red Sox make eight errors to help the Tigers to a 5 - 2 win.

1937: Tigers first baseman Hank Greenberg becomes the first player to hit a homer into the center field bleachers at Yankee Stadium. Detroit wins 8 - 1.

1960 - Chicago's pennant hopes are damaged with a nitecap 7 - 6 loss to the Tigers, after they win the opener 8 - 4. Pinch-hitter Norm Cash scores the decisive run in game 2. Cash thus ends his year by grounding into no double plays, the first American Leaguer to do this since league records on this were started in 1940. Teammate Dick McAuliffe and Roger Repoz will duplicate this in 1968.

1968 - Denny McLain's 31st win is overshadowed by Mickey Mantle's 535th homer. McLain allegedly calls C Jim Price out and tells him to inform Mantle he's throwing the slugger nothing but fastballs. The home run gives Mantle undisputed hold of 3rd place on the all-time home run list. Mantle tips his cap to Denny as he rounds third base. Joe Pepitone, the next batter, signals where he would like the ball, and McLain dusts him. The Tigers win the game 6 - 2, the 12th straight complete game for the Tigers staff.

1980: At Tiger Stadium, Al Kaline becomes the first player in franchise history to have his uniform number retired. The First Ballot Hall of Famer, who wore the number 6, played rightfield like he invented it for Detroit from 1953 to 1974.

2001: Major League Baseball and the Players Association announce the creation of the MLB-MLBPA Disaster Relief Fund. The organizations will each donate $10 million to aid the victims of the September 11 terrorist attacks.
