Talk:Detroit Tigers/Archive 1

message: I noticed that the 2006 Season is a really really long section of the article...Would it be a better idea to have a small paragraph or two summary or selection of that article on this page and make the 2006 Detroit Tigers its own page? [Reference what the 2006 Minnesota Twins is like]
Agreed.
Changed Game 4 info...Don Larsen pitched a perfect game in the World Series.
*Not sure if that's the answer or not, but what I do know is that the section on the 2006 season is waaaaaaaaay too long.  It's been a fantastic season for Detroit, but they do have over a century of baseball to be addressed in this article, and 2006 is only one year. Vidor 00:06, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Not only that, but can we please at least MENTION Ernie Harwell in this article?  Not many other figures in American sports have been so associated with one team, despite having never played for, coached, or owned said team.
On a related note, to whomever redid the retired numbers section, NICE touch. I think it's a great way to not only honor the tigers greats, but to explain the names in commerica park to all who wiki this. Top job! BT14 16:09, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

        * "Bless You Boys"- Theme song for the 1984 season.
Who's your Tiger is not a motto, it's an ad slogan.  I've never even heard the Home Again phrase.  Also to be a Theme Song I think the song should be played at least once a game, if the Tigers are not in the playoffs these songs are not even heard.  It would be better to list these as Previous Rally Songs or even Songs Inspired by the Tigers. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by RichGreene (talk • contribs) 00:27, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: The Cap Insignia used in all the team pages is the insigna worn on the home baseball cap.  The color may change on the away, or batting helmet, so we just stick with the home cap.  However, the additional word "home" makes it too long and too clunky.  Cap insignia works fine.  - Silent Wind of Doom 18:35, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Logo Box 

message: One of the things that have become a major part of the baseball articles has been the nicknames.  They've ben added to the leads as well as the infoboxes.  However, the Tigers are one of the notables not to have one, at least not one mentioned in the article.  What nicknames do the Tigers go by?  I'm sure they are not known only as "The Tigers".  I was considering putting "The Bless You Boys", but I wasn't sure if that was too period specific.  For instance, "Miracle Mets", which applied almost exclusively to the circa 1969 team, was not mentioned as a nickname.  "The Bronx Zoo", however, which referred to the late 70's Yankees teams, is still used today (mostly by critics) and so it was included. - Silent Wind of Doom 18:35, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Deletion of uniforms? 

message: Somebody said that bringing up Cameron Maybin, replacing Pedro Infante with Ramon Santiago on the roster for shortstop defense, and effectively releasing veteran outfielder Craig Monroe were "bold moves". Such moves are bold if they entail huge risks.  The bigger risk is in trying to force Infante to play shortstop when Guillen needs a break and to keep giving chances to Craig Monroe when he is struggling during a pennant race.

thread_title:  First Paragraph 

message: This caught my eye:
There are various legends about how the Tigers got their nickname. One involves the orange stripes they wore on their black stockings. Tigers manager George Stallings took credit for the name; however, the name appeared in newspapers before Stallings was manager. Another legend concerns a sportswriter equating the 1901 team's opening day victory with the ferocity of his alma mater, the Princeton Tigers. The earliest known use of the name "Tigers" in the news was in the Detroit Free Press on April 16, 1895.
The truth is revealed in Richard Bak's 1998 book, A Place for Summer: A Narrative History of Tiger Stadium. In the 19th century, the city of Detroit had a military unit called the Detroit Light Guard, who were known as "The Tigers". They had played significant roles in certain Civil War battles and in the 1899 Spanish-American War. The baseball team was still informally called both "Wolverines" and "Tigers" in the news. Upon entry into the majors the ballclub sought and received formal permission from the Light Guard to use its trademark and from that day forth it is officially the Tigers.
The "truth" is a bit strong.  Unless there's some evidence to support those assertions, then we should present it as another theory.  SixFourThree (talk) 21:05, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

message: It feels like we could greatly expand some of the "Tigers culture" stuff.

message: The Tigers' uniforms featured the Olde English D on their uniforms for more years than the article claims.  The article lists it as having appeared as a jersey logo from "1934-1959, 1961-present," while mentioning that a blackletter "D" was first seen in 1904.  The article fails to mention that, according to the Baseball Hall of Fame site, a blackletter "D" appeared on Tigers jerseys from 1904-1915, 1917, 1921-1926, 1928-1929, 1934-1959, 1961-present. By 1908, and with few interruptions, the "D" was essentially identical to the one worn by the team today.
Doesn't anyone find it strange that the Tigers were not supposed to have used that logo until 1934, and on the same page, there's Ty Cobb wearing the highly recognizable "D" in a picture from 1913?
It should also be mentioned that the Olde English "D" is widely considered to be the oldest logo in baseball, as described in USA Today article by Mike Dodd http://www.usatoday.com/sports/baseball/playoffs/2006-10-22-tigers-emblem_x.htm?csp=34.
It is also considered by many to be the oldest logo still in use in pro sports, as it traces its origins to a similar "D" used on the uniforms of the pre-Major League Western League Tigers in the 1890's.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Djsparks (talk • contribs) 08:04, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Checking Marc Okkonen's book on baseball uniforms, on which the Hall of Fame information is based, you're totally right about the Tigers' logo. It's debatable that it's the oldest, since the A's and their predecessor were wearing a stylized A clear back to the 1860s, I think, although those were not continuous teams. For Detroit, the block letter D first appeared on the 1903 road uniform. Prior to that, and otherwise, the shirts said "DETROIT". In 1904 it was switched to the familiar old English D, and in 1905 it appeared on both home and road. It continued that way until one variation of the road uniform reverted to a block D in 1915. It was totally a block D in 1916, then went back to the old English D in 1917. In 1918 it was a slightly ornate but modern D. It went back to old English in 1921. In 1927 it was swapped out for a Tiger logo. In 1928 the old English D reappeared on the home shirt, with "TIGERS" on the road shirt. In 1929 both shirts had the old English D. In 1930 it went to both home and road featuring a script "Detroit". The old English D returned to the home shirt in 1934 and stayed that way through 1959. In 1960 they went with a script "Tigers" on the home shirt and a block "DETROIT" on the road shirt. In 1961 they went back to the old English D on the home shirt and retained the block "DETROIT" on the road shirt. That continues through 1991, the last year the book covers.

replies: text:   That's a URL where anyone (not necessarily another editor) could buy the book. I'm talking about inserting a URL reference within the main text of the article itself. Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 23:05, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

replies: text:   So I have tweeted at the official historian of Major League Baseball (MLB) (John Thorn). (Here's a URL of the Twitter conversation). He says that the Tigers were a minor league club in the Western League in 1894, and that they became a major league club in 1900. So, it stands to reason that it is incorrect to say that the Tigers were founded in 1894; instead, it's correct to say that the Tigers' first season was in 1901. So, please stop reverting the main Tigers article with inaccurate information. Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 06:00, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
