1972: Tigers lose to the Yankees 3 - 2, while the Red Sox beat the Royals. Tigers fall 1.5 games behind Boston with 6 to play. They will rally to win their first ever division title by 1/2 game over the red sox.

1975: For the first time in the major leagues, four pitchers share a no-hitter when Vida Blue, Glenn Abbott, Paul Lindblad and Rollie Fingers of the Oakland Athletics combine to no-hit the California Angels, 5 - 0, on the final day of the season.

1988: Tigers eliminated from the AL East race. They will win out and finish one game back after a September swoon and near recovery.
1997: Tony Gwynn of the San Diego Padres ties Honus Wagner's record by winning his eighth National League batting title. Gwynn finishes at .372, becoming the first player to win four consecutive NL batting titles since Rogers Hornsby won six straight between 1920 and 1925.
2003: Tigers win their season finale 9 - 4 over the twins, their 5th win in their final 6 games to avoid tying the 1962 Mets' record of 120 losses.

2012: 2B Darwin Barney of the Cubs makes a wild throw to first base after fielding Justin Upton's ground ball in the 8th inning of the Cubs' 8 - 3 loss to the Diamondbacks. The miscue ends Barney's 141-game errorless streak, tying Placido Polanco's all-time record for a single season, set in 2007.
2014: Tigers clinch their fourth straight division title with a 3 - 0 win over the twins.
2022: Aaron Judge ties one of the most hallowed records in baseball - the 61 home runs hit by Roger Maris in 1961, which still stands as the American League record six decades later. He takes Tim Mayza deep with a man on base in the 6th inning of a game at Rogers Centre, breaking a
3 - 3 tie to lead the Yankees to an 8 - 3 win. While three players have exceeded that total in the National League, all were active in the steroids era and their accomplishment has been tainted as a result - which is not the case for Judge.
