Finally, in a season full of Detroit Tigers losses, the snapshot that would define them all: A baseball ricocheting off the outfielder’s glove and over the fence for a home run.
The 116th game of this forgetful season was on ice, anyways – the Tigers trailed Seattle by three runs in the top of the ninth inning before losing, 11-6, on Tuesday night at Comerica Park – but then Kyle Seager just had to hit a deep fly ball to the warning track in left-center field.
From center field, Niko Goodrum – mostly an infielder – charged hard.
