Just How Streaky Are We Talking?
Let's be honest, every team goes through rough patches. But the Tigers, well, they wear those rough patches like a slightly-too-tight Tigers jersey (ouch). While they haven't challenged the all-time record of 26 consecutive losses (yikes, who were those guys?), there have been some stretches that left fans reaching for the antacids.
QuickTip: Keep a notepad handy.
Remember the summer of 2023? Nine games in a row bit the dust. It felt like even the mascots, Paws and Stripes, were contemplating a career change (maybe juggling?). Thankfully, the Tigers finally roared back with a win, but that streak was a doozy.
Tip: Break it down — section by section.

Look, every cloud has a silver lining, right? Here's the optimistic outlook:
Tip: Reading carefully reduces re-reading.

The important takeaway: Don't despair, Tigers fans. There's always next game, next season, and a never-ending supply of nachos at Comerica Park.
QuickTip: Break down long paragraphs into main ideas.
