Tigers achieve best home start in 114 years with doubleheader sweep over Orioles

The Detroit Tigers are off to a strong start this season, boasting the best record in the American League and an impressive 12-3 mark at home, their most dominant home opening since 1911. They have won all four home series so far and recently swept a doubleheader against the Baltimore Orioles, demonstrating resilience despite nearly a dozen players on the injured list. Key contributions have come from players like Riley Greene, whose clutch performances have helped fuel the team's momentum, and pitcher Casey Mize, whose consistent outings have anchored Detroit’s pitching staff. Manager A.J. Hinch credits the team's mentality and depth for their current success, emphasizing confidence regardless of lineup changes. As the Tigers prepare to face the Houston Astros and continue their win streak, their strong pitching and timely hitting remain central to their early-season surge.
