Calling All Baseball Buddies: Tuning in to Tigers on the Radio!
Hey there, fellow Detroit Tigers fans! Ever get that burning desire to catch a game, but you're stuck at work, on a road trip, or maybe hiding from Aunt Mildred's questionable potato salad at a family gathering? (We've all been there.) Fear not, because the dulcet tones of play-by-play announcers and the crack of the bat are just a radio dial away!

But Where Do You Start? The Tigers' Radio Dialing Do's and Don'ts
The Detroit Tigers have a whole network of radio stations dedicated to bringing you the roar of the crowd (or the stunned silence after a bad call, no judgment). Here's the thing, though: depending on where you are, the station you need might change. Don't worry, we'll sort you out.
Do:
- Check the Zip Code: The Tigers have a handy dandy tool on their website (
) that lets you type in your zip code and see which station is your golden ticket.https://www.mlb.com/tigers/schedule/affiliates - Embrace the Flagship: WXYT-FM (97.1 FM) is the Tigers' main radio station, so if you're in the Detroit area, that's your best bet.
- Befriend a Local: Still lost? Ask a fellow Tigers fan! They'll probably be happy to point you in the right direction (and maybe wax poetic about the glory days of Ernie Banks...or is that the Chicago Cubs?).
Don't:
Tip: Avoid distractions — stay in the post.
- Panic Dial Every Station: You'll just end up with a headache and a strong aversion to polka music.
- Forget the Classics: Some Tigers' affiliates are AM stations. Don't be afraid to go old school! Just crank up the bass a bit.
- Underestimate the Power of the App: The Tigers have their own radio app, so you can catch the game on your phone no matter where you are (as long as you have a signal, that is).
Bonus Tip: If you're feeling fancy, SiriusXM also broadcasts Tigers games on select channels. Just sayin'.
