The Detroit Tigers: Home Run Hopefuls or Homerun-less Heroes?
Let's face it, folks, the Detroit Tigers haven't exactly been setting the baseball world on fire this year. They're scrappy, they've got heart (probably a lot of it, considering the cold bats they've been swinging lately), but launching dingers hasn't exactly been their strong suit.
So, the question burning brighter than the hot dog stand nacho cheese (questionable decision, by the way) is: How many home runs have these Tigers clawed their way to this season?
Hold onto your baseball caps, folks, because the answer might surprise you (or maybe not, but we can still have fun, right?)
According to the latest stats (not that we here at Totally Legit Baseball Facts haven't been meticulously counting with an abacus… or maybe a really good calculator app), the Tigers have launched a total of... drumroll please...
Tip: Summarize the post in one sentence.
...... insert suspenseful music here ......
.... an unspecified number of home runs (that's right, folks, suspense delivered and then immediately snatched away!)
Okay, okay, fine. We spilled the figurative beans (because real beans are for pre-game nachos, obviously). As of July 11th, 2024, the Detroit Tigers have hit a respectable, but not record-breaking, number of home runs.
QuickTip: Every section builds on the last.
We won't spoil the surprise entirely (although, let's be honest, you probably peeked at your phone for the answer already), but let's just say it's more than zero and less than a million (we like to keep things realistic here at TLBBF).
But hey, there's still plenty of season left! Maybe Miguel Cabrera will hit a few more moon shots to solidify his legendary status. Perhaps Riley Greene will continue to impress with his power-hitting ways. Who knows? Baseball is a funny game, and anything can happen (except for a million home runs by the Tigers, that one's a stretch).
