Detroit Tigers Team Notes

September 15 in Tigers history :

1901: The Detroit Tigers roll over Cleveland behind Ed Siever with what was the most lopsided score in American League history: 21 - 0 (equaled on August 13, 1939) -- until the Cleveland Indians beat the New York Yankees 22 - 0 on August 31, 2004 at Yankee Stadium. Detroit pounds out 24 hits off rookie Jack Bracken as Pop Dillon leads the way with four hits. The game is mercifully called after 7 1/2 innings to allow Cleveland to catch a train. Bracken's ERA is not helped by this outing and he will end this season, his only one in the majors, with a 6.21 mark, the highest in the deadball era.

1969: Denny McLain records his 9th shutout a Tigers record, beating New York 2 - 0 at Yankee Stadium.

1999: Baseball owners vote to merge the administrative operations of the American and National leagues. National League President Leonard Coleman, concluding his job has become irrelevant, announces his resignation effective after the World Series. He will become a senior adviser to Commissioner Bud Selig.

2000: The Tigers outlast the Red Sox 7 - 6. The two teams combine to use a league record-tying 42 players in the contest.
