A crowd of 32,845 fans packed Comerica Park on Saturday in anticipation for Miguel Cabrera's 500th home run.
They weren't treated to the historic milestone, but the Detroit Tigers gave them one of their most exciting performances of the season. If there was ever a time for manager AJ Hinch to sell his team's rejuvenated brand of baseball, it was Saturday night.
And the Tigers — three wins from a .500 record — delivered.
"I love the fact that our players are getting to witness what it's like here in Detroit when there's an environment like this," Hinch said.
