10/04/24 Tigers utility man swings his way from late-season slump to playoff hero. CLEVELAND -- Detroit Tigers outfielder Kerry Carpenter once jokingly called utility infielder Andy Ibanez “Barry Bonds against lefties.” It wasn't far from the truth. But while the rest of his teammates were fueling a historic turnaround in the final two months of the season, Ibanez found himself stuck in a frustrating offensive slump — against lefties, righties, everyone. “September was a tough month,” Ibanez said in Spanish. “I wasn't able to contribute to help the team win, but I never gave up. I always stayed positive.” But manager A.J. Hinch's patience in September -- when he kept playing Ibanez despite a string of ugly at-bats -- ultimately paid off in October. Ibanez started and doubled

10/03/24 The full Aristotle: Tigers' exhilarating late run built on selflessness, trust and belief. Detroit — It was after the Tigers pulled out a dramatic 4-3 win against Tampa Bay on Sept. 26 . It was their fifth straight win and it cut their magic number to clinch a playoff spot to one. What was once improbable and suddenly inevitable. Manager AJ Hinch played every position player on his roster that day. He had Kerry Carpenter pinch-hit for Spencer Torkelson, the first time Torkelson had ever been pinch-hit for. Carpenter later would be called back for rookie Justyn-Henry Malloy. Carpenter singled in a run in his pinch-hit at-bat with Torkelson on the top step of the dugout applauding. Malloy lofted a sacrifice fly that broke the 3-3 tie in the eighth and Carpenter was one of the first to

9/17/24 Remastered in 4K, Greenberg doc will have theatrical re-release in Royal Oak this weekend. In another baseball playoff push, 90 years ago, amidst worldwide political turmoil, a Detroit baseball star made a personal decision that created an indelible memory. Detroit Tigers | Kerry Carpenter's 4 hits lead surging Tigers past Rockies, 7-4 This week marks the 90th anniversary of the Detroit Tigers' future Hall of Famer Hank Greenberg opting to attend religious services for Yom Kippur, rather than play in an afternoon game against the New York Yankees, who were chasing the first-place Tigers at the time. The then-23-year-old Greenberg was in his first full season in Major League Baseball in 1934, but had already become a star, leading the Tigers to a 7.5-game lead in the standings, en route to their first pennant in 25 years. To celebrate the 90th anniversary of Greenberg's decision, Congregation Shaarey Zedek — in partnership with the Michigan Jewish Sports Foundation, the Jewish Historical Society of Michigan and the Ciesla Foundation — will host a special celebration on Wednesday, Sept. 18 at 7 p.m., with former Detroiter Aviva Kempner — who wrote, directed and produced the award-winning documentary “The Life and Times of Hank Greenberg” — as a special guest.
