Great news from today’s Detroit Free Press:
The Tigers are retiring the late Sparky Anderson’s No. 11, general manager Dave Dombrowski announced at Tigerfest today.
Dombrowski said the club will fly a flag at Comerica Park all season in Anderson’s honor. The team will wear an Anderson patch on its uniforms throughout the season. Anderson, who charismatically managed the Tigers for 17 seasons, died in November at 76.
