Television

[edit]

Current

[edit]

The television rights are currently held byBally Sports Detroit (formerly Fox Sports Detroit).Jason Benetti serves as the primary play-by-play announcer beginning in 2024,[7] whileAndy Dirks andDan Petry rotate as primary analysts.[8]

Pre-game and post-game show hosts and reporters includeJohn Keating, Mickey York, Trevor Thompson, Justin White,Cameron Maybin, and Johnny Kane, whileDan Petry provides studio analysis.

Former TV outlets

[edit]

The Tigers have spent most of their broadcast televised history across two of Detroit's heritage "Big Three" network stations,WJBK (Channel 2, Fox; formerly with CBS from 1948 to 1994) andWDIV (Channel 4, NBC; originally WWJ-TV from 1947 to 1978), as well as two of the market's former legacy independent stations,WMYD (Channel 20, formerly WXON-TV and WDWB) andWKBD (Channel 50). Channel 4 was the original Tiger television outlet, carrying games from 1947 to 1952, and again for a twenty-season run from 1975 to 1994. Channel 4, at least during a time when NBC's ratings were sagging during the late 1970s to the mid-1980s, was one of a handful of the network's affiliates that was either a primary outlet or an affiliate of the local/regional baseball team.

Significant in the Tiger broadcasting network were television stations owned by Tigers' ownerJohn Fetzer, including WKZO-TV (nowWWMT) in Kalamazoo,WLNS in Lansing,WJRT in Flint,WWTV andWWUP-TV in northern Michigan, and even some television stations in Nebraska, namelyKOLN-TV in Lincoln and its satellite in Grand Island, Nebraska.

WJBK took over the Tigers telecasts starting with the 1953 season, and carried games until the end of the 1974 season; since 2007, the station simulcasts the team's home opener each season from Fox Sports Detroit. WKBD, for many years known as Detroit's leading independent TV station, as well as the longtime over-the-air TV home of the Red Wings and Pistons, televised Tigers games starting in 1995 (when it was anUPN owned-and-operated station) until 2003. WMYD televised selected Tigers games only for the 2006 season, and as WXON-TV and the local affiliate of theONTV subscription TV service, Channel 20 also showed the team's games from 1981 to 1983.

Pro-Am Sports System (PASS), originally started in 1982, became the regional cable outlet for the Tigers starting in 1984, after the network was purchased by then-Tigers team ownerTom Monaghan. Monaghan sold PASS to Post-Newsweek Stations (nowGraham Media Group) in 1992, after he sold the Tigers to local pizza magnate and Red Wings owner Mike Ilitch. PASS, thereafter, re-located its operations to the WDIV studio/office facility inDowntown Detroit. PASS shut down operations in 1997, after the Red Wings, Tigers, and Pistons all elected to sign-with and helped launch Fox Sports Detroit.
