Tigers on TV today

The Tigers take on the New York Yankees today at 1:05 PM EST as we head into the last week or so of spring training. The game will be televised live on Fox Sports Net Detroit for those who are local.

In other Tigers TV news FSN will also be presenting opening day in style - starting the afternoon before they will be presenting the 36 inning Tigers marathon. It will feature repeats of some of the playoff games along with spotlight features and new programming. For those of us who get to go to the ballpark we will be able to come home after the game and watch the repeat of it that evening.

This is an exciting year for Tigers fans who rely on TV to see their team - between FSN, ESPN, FOX and local channel programming there is only 1 game that won't be seen on TV and that will probably change into no games if we have a season like last year. With my partial season ticket package and the extra games that I pick up (plus the games that I travel to see) I will see around 35-40 games in person - for the rest I rely heavily on TV and radio. It will be nice to actually see all of the games this year. Last year there were far too many games that could only be heard.
