1901: In the first of two in Detroit, Tiger ace Roscoe Miller puts on a disgraceful exhibition against the A's, lobbing in the ball, grinning as the A's batters hit it, and throwing a bunt into the stands to allow three runs to score. Miller settles down in the last three innings, allowing only a single, but the Tigers lose, 11 - 9. His performance is explained by writers in that he is in one of his sulks.

1904 - In front of 37,000 fans the Giants sweep the Beaneaters, beating Boston, 6 - 1 and 4 - 3. Christy Mathewson wins the opener, beating Kaiser Wilhelm, and is not scored upon until the 9th when Jim Delahanty and Tom Needham triple. Red Ames wins the nitecap. Following the Giant sweep, excited fans hoist John McGraw up to carry him to the Polo Grounds field house. But McGraw gets dropped during the excitement, sustaining a sprained ankle.

1905: The Detroit Tigers released Duff Cooley.

1905: When Boston beats the Athletics, 3 - 2, in 13 innings, they score the first runs off Rube Waddell in 44 innings. Waddell strikes out 17.

1910: Jack Coombs begins a streak of 53 shutout innings, topping Doc White's 46 shutout innings of 1904. Three years later Walter Johnson will top Coombs record with 55 2/3 innings. Years later, Don Drysdale in 1968 breaks the Big Train's record with 58 shutout innings. Finally, Orel Hershier in 1988 sets the record with 59 shutout innings.

1914: 19-year-old Babe Ruth hits his first professional HR with the minor league Providence Grays while pitching a 9-0 shutout vs. the Toronto Maple Leafs.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/F5Mcd8JWsAkVZ9_?format=jpg&name=medium

1926: At Baltimore, the minor league Orioles embarrass the Yankees, 18 - 9, in an exhibition game. Babe Ruth is 0 for 5 and tangles with Mark Koenig in the dugout after the 8th inning. Ruth yells at Koenig, accusing him of loafing on several plays.

1935: Trailing the St. Louis Browns, 5 - 1, Lefty Grove is lifted for pinch-hitter Wes Ferrell who hits an RBI single as the Red Sox score six runs in the 6th inning en route to 9 - 5 win. Grove is the winning pitcher.

Chuck Cottier has three doubles and three RBIs to back Buhl. Harvey Haddix is the loser and gives way to Diomedes Olivo, who makes his major league debut in relief.

The team's assistant athletic trainer is suspected of having used a smart watch to capture signs and relay them to players on the field.

2023: Giancarlo Stanton hits the 400th home run of his career off José Cisnero in the 6th inning to break a 1 - 1 tie and lead the Yankees to a 5 - 1 win over the Tigers.

2023: José Altuve clubs three home runs in the first three innings to lead Houston to a 14 - 1 demolition of Texas, a performance that also gives him five long balls over the last two games, tying the major league record. Having gone deep in the 9th inning of yesterday's game, he is the first player since at least 1961 to homer in four consecutive innings

If you?ve been reading this blog for the past couple months, you won?t be surprised to hear about the latest drama surrounding Spencer Turnbull.

I called it over a month ago when Turnbull bombed during his return to Detroit and got sent back down to Toledo. I wrote that the strategy to get that service time clock would go on.

1912: In an ace pitching duel, Smokey Joe Wood of the Boston Red Sox bests Senators legend Walter Johnson, 1 - 0, for his 30th (14th consecutive) victory in a season in which he will win 34. The Red Sox's only run is the result of back-to-back doubles by Tris Speaker and Duffy Lewis; the first two-bagger should have been an easy fly out, but the ball lands into an area cordoned off by a rope to section off the overflow Fenway Park crowd.

Ruth hits his 3rd of the day? number 47 in the nitecap off Jack Russell but the terrier nips New York 5 - 2. There will be 34 homers hit at Fenway this season but only 5 by the Sox.

He goes to first base and with a 3-2 count on the next batter Furillo races from first into the dugout to swing at Leo Durocher who ordered the beaning. In the melee a Giants player steps on Furillo's left hand breaking a finger. Furillo will not play again till the World Series but his .344 will lead the NL in hitting. Roy Campanella homers in the 2nd inning and sets the major league mark for home runs by a catcher. His 38th tops the 37 hit by Cubs C Gabby Hartnett in 1930.

1959: The Dodgers set a record for a Coliseum doubleheader when 39,432 fans show up for two games with the Cubs.

WATERCOOLER WEDNESDAY.
Totally Tigers

Shortly after the World Series ends, the Detroit Tigers will find out just how many potential starting pitchers they will have for the 2024 season.

Matthew Boyd and Michael Lorenzen are now gone. Eduardo Rodriguez is widely expected to opt out. And it?s being reported that the team wants to part ways with Spencer Turnbull.

That leaves Matt Manning, Reese Olson, Tarik Skubal and Joey Wentz as the other potential starting pitchers. (Alex Faedo is being moved to the pen.)

Casey Mize is still rehabbing from surgery and expected to return next year.

Given the departures, inexperience and return of injured pitchers, the Tigers will be using a variety of resources to fill their starting rotation.

But how many SPs will they need? Will they have any veterans? Will someone step up and become the #1 starter?

Where are the majority of new starting pitchers going to come from? Potentially, they could need at least 2 or even 3 new ones.

Will they come from Toledo?

From trades?

From free agency?

These are the questions to ask yourself and others as we ponder just how much the Tigers? starting rotation needs to change. Let?s kick start some good discussion threads here ? and to take with you wherever you go during the rest of the week.

From where will the majority of new starting pitchers come?

1. Toledo

2. Via trades

3. Via free agency
