Acerca de este libro electrónico
The 1984 Detroit tigers roared out of the gate, winning their first nine
games of the season and compiling an eye-popping 35-5 record after the
campaign’s first 40 games--still the best start ever for any team in
major league history. The tigers led wire-to-wire in 1984, becoming only
the third team in the modern era of the majors to have done so. And
Detroit’s determination and tenacity resulted in a sweep of the Kansas
City Royals in the AL playoffs and a five-game triumph over the San
Diego Padres in the World Series. And Tigers fans will tell you that the
bottom of the eighth inning in Game Five was the first time Kirk Gibson
hit an iconic home run in the Fall Classic. Detroit Tigers 1984: What a
Start! What a Finish!, an effort by the society of American Baseball
research’s BioProject Committee, brings together biographical profiles
of every Tiger from that magical season, plus those of field management,
top executives, the broadcasters--even venerable Tiger Stadium and the
city itself.
