Detroit Tigers lose in such miserable conditions, it wasn't baseball

Free Press sports writers Anthony Fenech and George Sipple give their thoughts on the first few games of the Detroti Tigers' 2018 season from Comerica Park.

This is one way to speed up the pace of play in baseball.

The Detroit Tigers and Kansas City Royals played in terrible weather conditions on Tuesday afternoon at Comerica Park; the temperature was in the high-30’s, the wind blew at 13 m.p.h. and a steady drizzle fell throughout the game.

The result was a 1-0 Royals win, played in 2 hours and 17 minutes, in a game that will go down as one of the more unentertaining of the season.
