Can anyone tell me the significance of this?

Not sure of the significance but I know I was at this game cause that is my little brother's 21st birthday and I remember we spent a day downtown at the casino and the Tigers to celebrate.  Trying to remember specifically what happened in that game and I can't.

Verlander's home debut?

Edited November 11, 2022 by Edman85

 According to baseball reference there was a double header. Tigers won the first 2-1. Sean Douglas got the start and got the win Farnsworth the save. Farnsworth was traded about a week later (7/31) for Ramon Colon and Zach Minor.

Twins won the second game 5-3 Verlander got the start and took the loss. 

The day before the game the Tigers picked up IF John McDonald in a conditional deal. He was sold back to Toronto in November

That's it he pitched two MLB games that year. Second game of a DH in Cleveland (lost 6-0)

And the home game against the Twins, lost 5-2. Went 6 innings both times

Yes, this is from his first home start. It was also the first game both of my daughters got to attend. We were in the upper deck third base side. As I explained the foul poles and the warning track to them, some of the people who were part of the PAWS team, saw me pointing and explaining various parts of the field to my kiddos, and asked if we would like to be Tiger Fans of the game. We were elated when they put us behind home plate. Both of my girls are still Tigers fans to this day.

That's a cool story.

I miss physical tickets. I love the convenience of only needing my phone but if you fork down the money upfront for a package you should get physical reminders too.  I heard of some NFL teams going back to giving tickets.

Plus those physical tickets can turn into keepsakes for people.

I just have no idea how people can’t just see right through the ridiculousness of that stuff the second they see it. I blame schools and parents.
