The Yankees are looking for redemption in Detroit this week.
An explanation: The Tigers swept the Yankees at Comerica Park last May, the first true sign that things weren’t right in 2021. That started a run of eight losses in 10 games and set the tone for a topsy-turvy and ultimately wildly underwhelming season.
Both teams are drastically different now as they meet again almost a year later. Detroit likely isn’t ready to make a postseason run, but they certainly could be a nuisance for a Yankees team still smarting from a series loss to the lowly Orioles.
