Detroit Tigers' Robbie Grossman is the first Tiger to hit 20 homers in 3 years. Nicholas Castellanos was the last to do it back in 2018.

On this day, we lost two of the Greatest Hitters in Detroit Baseball History.
Make that: Baseball History.

Reds 7 - Tigers 4: Five-run third dooms Detroiters.
The fatal blow was a three-run home run hit by a guy who was batting .181 coming into tonight. Ouch.

Per Elias Sports, Drew Carlton is the first Tigers pitcher since at least 2000 to throw just one pitch in his Major League debut.

The last pitcher to do so was San Diego's Buddy Baumann on July 16, 2016.

Hammerin' Eric Haase's 20th home run of the season is a 107.3 mph line drive to LF seats off Tyler Mahle. 3-0 Tigers.
Eric Haase becomes first Tiger to post a 20-homer season while playing at least 60 percent of his games at catcher since Mickey Tettleton in 1992.
With Eric Haase's 20th homer of the season, the Tigers now have multiple players with 20-or-more home runs in a season for the first time since 2017 (Upton 28, Castellanos 26, Kinsler 22).
