I'm a Yankee fan, but a great appreciator of the game and its history. I still have the picture from the newspaper of the last pitch thrown by Jones at the stadium. I sorely miss Tiger Stadium, and wish the TIgers still called it their home (not a huge fan of Comerica, but that's probably because I loved Tiger Stadium).

I remember being 9 or 10 and going to a game at Michigan & Trumbull.... I don't think I had ever seen grass that green!

i was in 4th or 5th grade when this game happened. I remember being sooo jealous of the few kids in my class that were lucky enough to be at this actual game. i'll never forget shedding a tear after that todd jones strikeout haha

Great video. I never made it out to Tiger Stadium. Wish I had. You captured the day well.

Even after all these years, this is enough to make me start crying. So many great childhood memories. In the end though, I think the time was right for a new stadium. All great things must come to an end. GO TIGERS!!!

This made is shed a few tears too. I saw last year only half of Tiger Stadium still standing. That was say. Tiger Stadium has been around since 1919 and the City of Detroit can leave it standing as a Historical site? Detroit Tigers are a historical part of the city. My mom grew up in Detroit and remembers going to games as a kid. After seeing this video it reminded me about what I said above about Tiger Stadium. I will remember Tiger Stadium. RIP Tiger Stadium. Go Tigers Go!
