In the script, Charles Tucker III noted to Jonathan Archer – in 2153, moments before Archer traveled back in time to Detroit of 2004 – that the Tigers had been Detroit's baseball team and that their name matched that of Detroit's football team, the Lions. At one point during the development of DS9: "Emissary" (on 30 July 1992 ), Joan Pearce Research Associates suggested the baseball team in Benjamin Sisko's encounter with the Prophets to be the Detroit Tigers. In the finished episode it were the Chicago Cubs. (The Making of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, pp. 135 & 136)

  • Detroit's first major league entry was the Detroit Wolverines, members of the National League from 1881 through 1888. The nickname, now associated with the University of Michigan, came from Michigan's nickname, "The Wolverine State". The Wolverines' best year was 1887 when they won the National League pennant and won the World Series with the American Association champion St. Louis Browns. The leading players were Hardy Richardson, Jack Rowe, Deacon White, pitcher Charlie Getzein, and Hall of Famers "Big Sam" Thompson and Dan Brouthers. Thompson won the 1887 NL batting championship, so he is the answer to the trivia question, "Who won the National League batting championship while playing for Detroit?"

  • Detroit's first major league entry was the Detroit Wolverines, members of the National League from 1881 through 1888. The nickname, now associated with the University of Michigan, came from Michigan's nickname, "The Wolverine State". The Wolverines' best year was 1887 when they won the National League pennant and won the World Series with the American Association champion St. Louis Browns. The leading players were Hardy Richardson, Jack Rowe, Deacon White, pitcher Charlie Getzein, and Hall of Famers "Big Sam" Thompson and Dan Brouthers. Thompson won the 1887 NL batting championship, so he is the answer to the trivia question, "Who won the National League batting championship while playing for Detroit?" Despite the championship, the team did not draw enough fans to stay solvent at the major league level, as Detroit had not yet become the large, industrial city it is today. Hall of Fame manager Ned Hanlon played all eight seasons in center field but there was high turnover otherwise. After the 1888 season, the team disbanded and the city was relegated to minor league status. One new club formed and joined the International League in 1889, and promptly won the league championship. Their fans' joy came to an abrupt end when the league temporarily disbanded in mid-1890 and took the Detroits with it. An attempt was made to revive the old Northwestern League in 1891, but it also collapsed in mid-season, and Detroit professional baseball took a short hiatus. Another Detroit club was a charter member when the Western League reorganized for the 1894 season. By 1896, they were sometimes called "Tigers" (see below). They had also built a ballpark at the corner of Michigan and Trumbull Avenues, which would remain their base of operations for the next 104 seasons. When the Western renamed itself the American League for 1900, it was still a minor league, but next year it broke with the National Agreement and declared itself major, openly competing with the National League for players, and for fans in three contested cities. For a few years there were rumors of abandoning Detroit to compete for Cincinnati or Pittsburgh but the two leagues made peace in 1903 after similar moves into St Louis and New York. The Detroit Tigers played their first game as a major league team at home against the Milwaukee Brewers on April 25, 1901, with 10,000 fans at Bennett Park. After entering the ninth inning behind 13-4, the team staged a dramatic comeback to win 14-13. That team finished third in the eight-team league. Eleven years later, an elegant stadium was constructed on the site of Bennett Park and named Navin Field for owner Frank Navin. It was later renamed "Briggs Stadium", and finally "Tiger Stadium" in 1961. Tiger Stadium was used by the Tigers until the end of the 1999 season; from 2000 they have played in Comerica Park.
