Tigers on National TV

Awful Announcing has the preliminary schedules for both Fox Sports and ESPN. In the case of ESPN the schedule is only through July. It looks like the Tigers will be shut out of privilege of Joe Morgan calling their games – at least early in the season. But they are slated to be on Fox Saturday baseball six times.

The Fox dates are:

  • May 2nd against Cleveland
  • June 20th against Milwaukee
  • July 4th at Minnesota
  • July 25th against Chicago
  • August 29th against Tampa Bay
  • September 19th at Minnesota

Considering the Tigers struggles on Sunday Night Baseball (and Joe Morgan), being kept off the ESPN probably isn’t so bad. Unfortunately for those out of the greater Michigan viewing area though, it probably means you’ll miss those Saturday games though because they will likely be the B or C games on Fox.
