That snapshot set in motion an ambitious pursuit for Anderson, who recently authored his fourth edition of "The Detroit Tigers: A Pictorial Celebration of the Greatest Players and Moments in Tiger History."

First, the face of the franchise is sent packing -- to the New York Yankees, of all teams. Then, the shortcomings of the Tigers are put on full display over the weekend in a three-game sweep against Tampa Bay.

A year later, he was the spark that helped turn around the Detroit franchise when nobody wanted to be a Tiger. The New York Yankees hope he can be a little of both during their push for the playoffs.

On Sunday at Comerica Park, the 8 year old from Traverse City will do the hurling.

His swing has taken Fedorinchik's grandson, David Murphy, to the top. The strapping 6-foot-4, 205-pound Murphy is the starting center fielder for the Texas Rangers.

We saw both the good and the bad for the Detroit Tigers in Monday's season-opening loss to the Kansas City Royals. The good is obvious: this team can hit. Some baseball experts believe the Tigers will become one of the few teams in major league history to score 1,000 runs in a single season.

Some of the national baseball experts who were riding the Tigers' bandwagon this winter have now jumped off for that very reason.

Except this year's game at Comerica Park might have had even more sizzle than usual.

After the Tigers' blockbuster trade for third baseman Miguel Cabrera last December, Inge found himself without a job.

His ear-to-ear grin was hard to miss.

He just hopes he can be there with them.

Baseball experts think so. So do his teammates. Just don't expect Verlander to say it.

The Keisers and their 9-year-old son Brandon were among the 1,000 Tigers fans who came to the Traverse City Central gymnasiuim on Sunday to participate in the Tigers' winter caravan event.
