==Season 6==
The Mighty Tigers were chosen for Season 6 by GSchlim. Unfortunately, he resigned from the league midway through and newcomer Ozzman took over. Both coaches had some hard times, and ultimately the Tigers finished with a 5-9 record and missed the playoffs.
Jay Green was a bright spot in the Tigers' lineup, who they acquired via a draft day trade. He ended up with an average of 0.775 and an OPS of 2.755 in the 11 games the Tigers kept statistics for. 
In the BBL Consolation Tournament, the Tigers lost to the Melonheads and the Wombats, thus ending their season.

== Season 8 ==
Coach jibbodahibbo brought the Tigers back for Season 8. He named them the Mighty Tigers and made their colors black and yellow, modeled after the Japanese professional team, the Hanshin Tigers. He was known to play the Hanshin Tigers' fight song during big moments on his team's streams. 
The Tigers' draft strategy included building around lots of pitching, they drafted the 3 available pro pitchers in the game as well as Luanne Lui. Additionally, coach jibbo wanted to try out many of the recently revealed boosts that had never been tried before, such as Luanne Lui when teammates with a pro pitcher, and Kenny Kawaguchi when teamed up with Ichiro. He also drafted Vicki Kawaguchi and Michiko Adachi to keep up with the Japanese theme.
The Tigers' stifling defense worked wonders throughout the season, helping them win a lot of close contests. Eventually, the Tigers clinched the AL Central division championship, with a record of 9-5.
The Tigers earned the two seed in the AL due to a tiebreaker over the Melonheads. They faced the wild card Hornets in the first round, because the first seeded Mariners were from the same division as the Hornets. In the first game, both teams' bats came alive, but the Hornets recorded a 23-13 victory. After that match, coach mbless1415 did not realize there was a requirement of streaming or recording his games. The incurred penalty was not enough to discredit his win. For games two and three, mbless decided to stream the games after being unable to figure out how to record. The pressure of live streaming may have hindered the Hornets' performance, and the Tigers won Game 2, 10-2. In the decisive Game 3, the Tigers played one of their worst games of the season, finally winning 6-4 in the bottom of the 7th. However, the Hornets were even worse, losing their side to the AI 1-0, giving the Tigers a 2 - (-1) win and series victory!
In the ALCS, the Tigers faced the top seeded Mariners at Big City Stadium. In the regular season, the Tigers held the Mariners to one of their lowest run totals of the season, at just 3. However, the Tigers lost that game after putting up an even worse performance. In the ALCS, the Tigers couldn't exactly crack the Mariners defense, but the Mariners certainly figured out the Tigers defense, blowing them out in game 1, 39-4. Game 2 was closer, but the Mariners prevailed, 10-8, to advance to the World Series and eliminate the Tigers. After the series, coach Jibbo stated, "I am super satisfied with that season."

== Season 10 ==
=== 2003 ===
Coach jibbodahibbo brought the Mighty Tigers back for Season 10, with the idea of modeling them after the Japanese Hanshin Tigers once again. But his plans were almost instantly foiled when the Indians drafted Ichiro with the 4th overall pick before the Tigers had a chance. Jibbo then decided to just make many different tiger themes throughout the season, such as the Mighty Tigers from Frosted Flakes, the "eye" of the tiger (a game in which he batted blindfolded), and the Tiger King Joe Exotic.
The Tigers had more success with interesting streams than with winning, as they finished 4-10 on the season.
The Tigers were also notable for being the first to draft and keep Ivan King, the oft-memed member of the Backyard Baseball community.

== Season 12 ==
=== 2001 ===
After a season with no Tigers teams, the next season brought two of them. In 2001, the Cincinnati Tigers were coached by alex7456. His full-offense team relied on offensive power at Parks Dept. 2.
The Tigers had high hopes but fell short, finishing 5-9; however, they accepted an invitation to the Consolation Tournament. They pounced on a good opportunity against a battered Yankees team and beat the Astros but lost to the Royals in the winners' finals. In the losers bracket, a similar story unfolded, with the Tigers prevailing over the Astros but losing to the Royals, and the team had to settle for second place.
=== 2003 ===
Meanwhile in 2003, the Texas Tigers, coached by jyknight, played at Tin Can Alley. The Tigers had some ups and downs, but finished with a 9-5 record and a Frontyard League West title.
In the playoffs, the Tigers took a bye before playing the Dodgers. The Tigers lost game 1 by a score of 31-23 but bounced back in game 2, 13-8. Game 3, however, was a decisive one in favor of the Dodgers, with a 20-7 final knocking out the Tigers despite being the second seed in the Frontyard League.
