Detroit Tigers

The Detroit Tigers are, so far, one of the most successful teams in Major League Baseball. With the MLB season, just starting up, it is important to get a good start early. The Tigers, with their new roster, are doing just that.
Over the offseason, the Detroit Tigers made a big addition to their roster. Prince Fielder, formerly a member of the Milwaukee Brewers, signed a 10 year contract with the Tigers. Fielder, a big hitter in the league since 2005, came out hitting. In the second regular season game, Fielder hit 2-3, with 2 Home Runs.
The Tigers, got a nice start off to the season. With the first two series ‘ against the Boston Red Sox, and then the Tampa Bay Rays. Against the Boston Red Sox, the Tigers won all three games. Against the Rays, the Tigers, started out strong, with a win in the first game, and then a 2-0 lead going into the 9th inning of game 2 blew that game, and lost 4-2. In the third game, the Tigers had a massive 7-2 victory over the Rays, and moved on to 5-1 on the season.
In the upcoming schedule, the Tigers go on their first road trip of the season. They are first traveling to Chicago, to play the White Sox, and following that series they will travel to Kansas City to play the Royals.
