This week for the Detroit Tigers podcast I do with co-host Chris Brown, we had Craig Calcaterra from Hardball Talk as our guest. He does a great daily column that is filling the void with the lack of baseball that is called “Today in Baseball”. That was the inspiration for my research as I discovered three unique moments in Tigers’ history that occurred on 4/20.
The First Game at Michigan & Trumbull was played on this date in 1912.
The weather played a role on the date for the first game at what was known then as Navin Field.
