Book excerpt: The all-time Detroit Tiger team, as recently determined by fan balloting, was announced at the conclusion of the 1999 season at the time the final game was played in historic Tiger Stadium. With the opening of a brand-new stadium, Comerica Park, in April 2000, this book looks back over a century of Tiger baseball and highlights the careers of not only the all-time team but many other great Tiger players as well. The all-time team consists of Sparky Anderson, manager; Bill Freehan, catcher; Hank Greenberg, first base; Charlie Gehringer, second base; George Kell, third base; Alan Trammell, shortstop; Ty Cobb, Al Kaline, and Kirk Gibson, outfield; and Hal Newhouser, Jack Morris, Mickey Lolich, and John Hiller, pitchers. Cochrane, Kuenn, Colavito, Horton, Cash, and many other Tiger greats from the past and present are also featured, as are memorable World Series moments, historic home runs, and great hitting and pitching performances.
