On this Date in Tigers History
- 1901 – At Bennett Park, the Tigers make an stirring comeback in their American League debut. Trailing 13-4 in the bottom of the ninth inning, they score 10 runs in their last at-bat to defeat the Milwaukee Brewers, 14-13. Frank Dillon drives in the game-winning run with his fourth double of the game – an opening day record that will be matched by the Reds’ Jim Greengrass in 1954.
