@KevG163 Seems like baseball infields were feature 1/3 or 1/2 of NFL games in ‘70s. Detroit Minny Milwaukee (p/t) Pittsburgh Cleveland Cincy NYJets SF Atlanta Baltimore.

@JimCosta_ Perfect time to make meaningful deadline moves because: a) wins over GB and Minnesota for 5-2 record shows Lions are "good or very good" and probably 3rd best team in NFC; b) Bears wins over NE and Seattle shows Lions need to improve to "great" to get past them to Super Bowl.

@Section344Lions How are the Lions 2.5 games clear? The Lions are now in the 2nd wildcard. Sitting outside the playoffs, behind 5-3 GB, are the Seahawks and Rams at 4-4. That’s only 1.5 games behind the Lions.

@AtoZ_Payton It’s meaningful news for me. I live in Vancouver and my time shift Fox station is from Rochester; CBS, NBC and ABC are from Detroit. So now I’ll get this on my TV. Canadian stations combined only pick up 3 or 4 of the early-window games and dismal Miami might not have made cut.

@BillyTMtn @OTBaseballPhoto Good point. NFL was a decade or two away from exploding in popularity. Attendance for that game was 30,206.

@KenKalDRW @971theticketxyt @iamtrevort Welcome to Vancouver, Ken. I’ll be at the game and, as usual, will be wearing my #25 Johnny Ogrodnick jersey which I got as a gift for Christmas 1984. Fits snugly. Incidentally, Johnny O played his WHL junior hockey for the New Westminster Bruins, a Vancouver suburb.

@MarcRyanOnAir Win the next two games or else most likely will be playing for a wildcard berth the rest of the way.

@PaulMayne6 Most often the lower deck in left. It’s where I saw my first game ever in ‘73 vs White Sox (incl Kaline homer), the Fidrych-Yankees game in ‘76 and Game 3 of the ‘84 WS. But first few rows of upper deck between plate and mound on weeknight was insanely good.

@IffyTheDopester Turn up the radio! “Remarkable mouth, remarkable radio station.”

@BobPagesports I saw him do a 2nd intermission shootout competition vs the Soo’s Gretzky at the London Gardens. The Ciccarelli family later bought the OHL Sarnia Sting and owned it for several years.

@Tigers_Fan23 @tigers Also, spacing between digit and x is inconsistent. 3x twice without a space, 10 x with a space.

[Mike Kuiack @mkuiack]

@971theticketxyt Surely diminished compared to if it had been in April with fresh hope or meaningful game in September. But I’m still looking forward to Saturday even if it’s glorified exhibition game. Send off for an all-time Tigers great. A bit like 1999 last game at Tiger Stadium.

[Mike Kuiack @mkuiack]

@baseballinpix That was the Tigers' first home game of the ALCS despite finishing the regular season with 13 more wins than the 85-win Twins. Alternated by division back then. Tigers blew a 5-run lead but Pat Sheridan won it with an 8th inning homer. Twins won series in 5.

[Mike Kuiack @mkuiack]

@jjthomas06 And even got a Tiger mascot got in on the celebration.

[Mike Kuiack @mkuiack]

@CSayf23 Did they finally drop the annoying “Here They Come” from the stadium announcer this week?

[Mike Kuiack @mkuiack]

@IffyTheDopester Ha, only 3 of 9 by sight, but recognized all 9 once others answered

@bigsullyt @m_bultman Thanks, found it. I had been looking in The Atlantic.

@bigsullyt @m_bultman I’m looking for the same answer. I didn’t see an article with that mentioned.

@IffyTheDopester Best play of the only World Series game I've attended in person.
