This is the Motor City.—“IMPORTED FROM DETROIT,” CHRYSLER COMMERCIAL To a man, the Detroit Tigers arrived in Lakeland, Florida, in the spring of 1968, believing they had been robbed the season before.“We had a strong belief, shared by just about everyone on that bal...lclub, that we should have won the pennant in 1967,” second baseman Dick McAuliffe recalled. “Not doing it when it’s right there for you, to have it slip away is something you never forget.”The previous season had ended with four teams—the Boston Red Sox, Minnesota Twins, Chicago White Sox, and the Tigers—in contention for the American League pennant entering the final days. On October 1, 1967, the last day of the regular season, the Red Sox and Twins played each other at Fenway Park, with the winner clinching at least a tie for the title.
