Tigers 6, Twins 0: Detroit honors Jim Price’s passing with a win

On a somber evening in Detroit, the Tigers took on the Minnesota Twins in game two of a four-game series. The day started with sad news of the passing of 1968 World Champion and longtime radio color man Jim Price.

At 81 years old, Price was beloved by Tigers fans of all generations for his contributions to the organization on and off the field. All of us here at Bless You Boys will miss him. Tuesday evening, the Tigers played one of their best all-around games of the season by shutting out the division-leading Twins. 6-0.
