Today marks the 100th anniversary of what was Navin/Briggs/Tiger Stadium.
In honor of this occasion, I wanted to post the play-by-play from the Detroit Times for that game.
This blog will cover my ongoing baseball research, mostly missing batter strikeout seasons, but also other baseball stuff. In addition, I will occasionally ponder stuff on baseball cards - a hobby which I have been into on and off over the years.
About Me
- Jonathan Frankel
- I am a long time baseball fan who became interesting in documenting the "missing" batter strikeouts a few years back as an outgrowth of my interest in the 1899 Cleveland Spiders. Grew up w/ the Big Red Machine. I now follow them and my new hometown, Detroit Tigers. Member of SABR off and on since 1979.
