| What a fight; Look how young Eli was! I Love those powder blue Twins Jerseys. Like the Umpire dress shirts too. Better than those ugly black bowling shirts they wear now. |

| Love that Roaring Tiger Channel 4 used to use. FSN should bring it back! Even if they have to pay WDIV a few bucks for the copyright! |

| That was some brawl, Sparky Anderson ended up on the ground three times!
I liked the dark blue tiger jersey tops.
These videos were on youtube, but MLB made them take them down (not network tv) as copyright infringement. They were not aired by MBL and the game was not televised, but these were on local channel 4 news. He felt that action was wrong and put them on myspacetv instead. I am with him on this one. What is aired on the news should be open game for recording and displaying for historic reasons!

| I agree! It is nice to see clips of baseball from the 80s! Especially Tigers Related! |

| They are hard to find, I'm glad I was able to get the Fidrych game from 76.
He went all 9 innings and the Tigers won! It sure is sad they did not know how to fix the injury he got, fooling around in spring training the next year. He has since had the surgery and wishes he were still young enough to be able to pitch again.
Things that knocked players out of the game back then are no longer career ending now. Like the Tommy John surgery V Wilson is comming back from. “It takes pitching, hitting and defense. Any two can win. All three make you unbeatable.” –Joe Garagiola |
