History of the Detroit Tigers : ウィキペディア英語版 | History of the Detroit Tigers The history of the Detroit Tigers dates to the late 19th century. The club is a charter member of the American League, one of four such clubs (with the Boston Red Sox, Chicago White Sox and Cleveland Indians) in its original city. Detroit is also the only member of the Western League, the AL's minor league predecessor, that remains its original city under its original name. It was established as a charter member in 1894. ==Western League: 1894–1900== The current Detroit club was a charter member when the Western League reorganized for the 1894 season. They originally played at Boulevard Park, sometimes called League Park. It was located on East Lafayette, then called Champlain Street, between Helen and East Grand Boulevard, near Belle Isle. In 1895, owner George Vanderbeck decided to build Bennett Park at the corner of Michigan and Trumbull Avenues, which would remain their base of operations for the next 104 seasons. The first game at the corner was an exhibition on April 13, 1896. The team, now occasionally called the "Tigers", beat a local semi-pro team, known as the Athletics, by a score of 30–3. They played their first Western League game at Bennett Park on April 28, 1896, defeating the Columbus Senators 17–2. (Richard Bak, ''A Place for Summer: A Narrative History of Tiger Stadium'', 1998, pp. 58–59) When the Western renamed itself the American League for 1900, it was still a minor league, but next year it broke with the National Agreement and declared itself major, openly competing with the National League for players, and for fans in three contested cities. For a few years there were rumors of abandoning Detroit to compete for Cincinnati or Pittsburgh but the two leagues made peace in 1903 after similar moves into St. Louis and New York.
