November 1 in Tigers and mlb history:

1949 - Gillette buys the World Series television rights for $1.37 million, the money to be dedicated to the players' pension fund.

1968 - Detroit Tigers pitcher Denny McLain is the unanimous American League winner of the Cy Young Award. McLain posted a 31-6 record with 280 strikeouts and a 1.96 ERA, helping Detroit to the AL pennant.

1982: At a meeting in Chicago, the major league owners vote not to renew Commissioner Bowie Kuhn's contract. The American League owners vote in favor of Kuhn 11-3, and the National League 7-5. But his 18 votes leave him 2 shy of the three-fourths majority required for reelection. Kuhn will remain on the job until a successor is found. He will eventually be replaced by Peter Ueberroth.

1997 - The Negro Leagues Baseball Museum opens in its new home in Kansas City, Missouri. It had been occupying a temporary site there for four years.
