September 23 in Tigers history:

1905: Detroit rookie Ty Cobb 18, hits his first home run, off Cy Falkenberg, an inside-the-park blow in an 8 - 5 loss at Washington.

1915: In Philadelphia, Detroit's Ty Cobb swipes his 90th base of the year. Only 300 fans are on hand to witness the event. Cobb will finish with 96 stolen bases, a record that will last until 1962.

1933: Despite the 5th-place Tigers' 5 - 3 win over the Browns, manager Bucky Harris submits his resignation. Babe Ruth's name will be prominent in the newspapers as a possible replacement.

1984 - Sparky Anderson becomes the first manager ever to win 100 games in a season with two different clubs as the Tigers beat the Yankees, 4 - 1. Anderson had led the Cincinnati Reds to 100-win seasons in 1970, 1975, and 1976.

1987: Bill Madlock collects his 2,000th career hit as the Tigers beat Boston, 4 - 0, on Doyle Alexander's 2-hitter.
