You Don't Need a Crystal Ball to See the Detroit Tigers (Unless You Left Yours in Comerica Park)
Ah, the Detroit Tigers. A team with a history as rich as a Coney Island hot dog (and possibly just as messy at times). You, my friend, have a hankering to catch a game. But fear not, fellow baseball fanatic, for this guide will illuminate your path to Tigers glory (or, at least, entertainment) like Miguel Cabrera lighting up the batter's box.

| How To Watch The Detroit Tigers |
Fire Up the Television (The Old-Fashioned Way)
For those who enjoy the classic couch potato experience, there are a couple routes to go:
Bally Sports Detroit: This is your one-stop shop for all things Tigers on TV. Crack open a cold Vernors and cheer on the boys in blue (and orange) the traditional way. Just remember, you'll need a cable or satellite subscription to Bally Sports.
MLB Network: This national network occasionally features Tigers games, especially if they're facing a big-market team or pulling off a miraculous comeback (fingers crossed!).
Pro Tip: Check your local listings or the Tigers website (
QuickTip: Reading carefully once is better than rushing twice.
Cutting the Cord? No Problem!
Gone are the days of being chained to cable. Here are some options for the modern cord-cutter:
MLB.TV: This streaming service offers live broadcasts of every single Tigers game, out-of-market restrictions permitting. Plus, you can catch replays, highlights, and behind-the-scenes content. Think of it as Netflix for baseball (but hopefully with less heartbreak).
YouTube TV: This live TV streaming service offers Bally Sports Detroit in some regions. Check their website to see if you're covered (
https://tv.youtube.com/welcome/ Streaming Services with Bally Sports App: Some streaming services, like Hulu + Live TV, offer access to Bally Sports Detroit. Again, check their websites for details.
Remember: These streaming services usually require a subscription fee, so be sure to factor that in before you sign up.
QuickTip: Go back if you lost the thread.
Witness the Roar in Person (If You're Feeling Fancy)
There's nothing quite like the crack of the bat and the roar of the crowd at Comerica Park. If you're feeling adventurous (and have some cash to spare), snag some tickets and experience the magic live!
Bonus Tip: Head down early and grab a Coney dog (or two) before the game. They're a Detroit tradition, almost as iconic as the Tigers themselves.
QuickTip: Pause when something feels important.
