The Tigers also will wear a commemorative patch to honor the Hall of Fame manager who led them to the World Series title in 1984, and raise a flag with his name on it at their home opener.
Very Classy. Will all miss George Anderson.

Go 76ers, Go Steelers and Go Bucks
We loved you Sparky. A classy move by the Tigers and should be celebrated by the Tigers and Reds families alike.
