Detroit Tigers history
Founded in Detroit in 1894 as part of the minor Western League, the Tigers are the only club from that league still in its first city. No AL club has played longer in the same city with the same name. Detroit became a charter member of the AL when it went major in 1901.
Four World Series titles followed, in 1935, 1945, 1968 and 1984, plus 11 pennants. The club built Bennett Park in Corktown in 1896, then put up Navin Field on that same spot in 1912. That park was expanded and renamed Briggs Stadium in 1938 and became Tiger Stadium in 1961, staying home until 1999. Since 2000 the team has played at Comerica Park downtown.
