Today on Segment 16, the guys listen to the play-by-play segment from the Tigers game, where a player was showing a lot of emotion and getting ejected from the game. While all this is going on, the commentators are showing absolutely NO emotion about something crazy going on. The guy took off his jersey and covered the plate with it, and nothing.

Today on Segment 16, the guys talk to Mickey from the Whitecaps about the season, Free Beer calls it over, even though it's only May, because he's like that, and the guys work on coming up with new promotions for the team.

Today on Segment 16, the guys welcome Mickey from the West Michigan Whitecaps in, because he brings us food...oh, and some new players who will be visiting us this season to talk about Whitecaps baseball! Brett Pirtle and Cam Gibson join the guys and eventually they're allowed to talk sports.

Tyler Collins made his first start in center field for the Detroit Tigers a memorable one, after he gave the finger to everyone in Comerica Park for booing him following a botched play.

Bill Dugan caught four foul balls in the first five innings of today's Detroit Tigers game at Comerica Park, then he caught another in the 8th inning. Dugan gave all of the baseballs away to young Tigers fans.

Today on Segment 16, the guys welcome back Mickey from the Whitecaps, to talk about opening day baseball in Grand Rapids. More importantly, to welcome in some more great Whitecaps food!

It was a frustratingly familiar sight for Detroit Tigers fans Tuesday night (4/5), as the team took a three-run lead into the bottom of the ninth inning against the Miami Marlins, only to see their bullpen blow it, sending the game to extra innings.

Today on Segment 16, former Detroit pitcher Dave Rozema, and for Bills linebacker Ray Bentley joined the guys to talk funny sports stories. They also are making appearances and signing autographs around the Grand Rapids area.

Today on Segment 16, the guys unveil the winner of the Whitecaps' voting for their newest stadium food! You'll be able to get the new dish "Dutch Love" at the Comfort Food Cart. Sadly, the "food" that the guys loving call "Eskimo Madness", of the Klondike bar covered in chili, didn't make the grade.

It wouldn't be a Michigan summer without baseball and road trips. Combine the two and you'll have a memorable summer vacation. Enjoy a week of great baseball this summer while exploring seven stadiums and some great Michigan cities!

It doesn't get much closer than that!

Baseball is back! The return of spring training baseball is one of the sure signs that the end of winter is near, even if it's still too cold for baseball in Michigan. Can the Detroit Tigers spring training results predict how the regular season will go?
