Hicks’ ninth inning heroics earn Tigers a split in Chicago
Quinn Harris-USA TODAY Sports On this date five years ago, the Detroit Tigers clinched their fourth consecutive division title. Much has changed in that time span. With a new owner, a new general manager, and a completely new roster, save for Miguel Cabrera, the Tigers have reached depths of despair surpassed only once in their storied franchise history.
As a merciful end to the 2019 season draws near, John Hicks gave the Tigers something to celebrate, as his three run homer in the ninth inning salvaged a split of the twin bill against the Chicago White Sox, giving the Tigers a 4-3 victory after dropping the opener by a 7-1 score.
