October 3 in Tigers and mlb history:

1934 - Dizzy Dean wins the opening game of the World Series 8 - 3. Detroit Tigers manager Mickey Cochrane held back his ace pitcher, Schoolboy Rowe, and veteran General Crowder is ineffective as Joe Medwick goes 4 for 4, including a home run. The Tigers make five errors.

1940 - In the World Series, Jimmy Ripple's two-run home run in the third inning of Game Two provides the winning margin as the Cincinnati Reds end the National League's 10-game Series losing streak with a 5 - 3 win over the Tigers.

1945 - The Detroit Tigers and Chicago Cubs face each other in the World Series for the fourth time. Hank Borowy pitches a six-hitter and Hal Newhouser is demolished with eight runs in three innings as the Cubs win 9 - 0.

1968 - In Game Two of the World Series, Mickey Lolich of the Detroit Tigers ties the Series 1-1. Lolich pitches a six-hitter and hits his first major league home run to defeat the Cardinals 8 - 1. Homeruns also came from big bats of Willie Horton (1), Norm Cash (1). Tigers RF Al Kaline has 2 hits and scores 2 runs in the rout.

2011: Detroit takes a 2-1 lead in their ALDS with a 5 - 4 win over the Yankees. Justin Verlander gives up two runs in the 1st inning, but then settles down. The Tigers score twice in the 3rd off CC Sabathia, then Jhonny Peralta puts them ahead with an RBI double in the 5th. The Yankees tie the game at 4 in the 7th on Brett Gardner's two-run double, but Delmon Young hits a solo homer off Rafael Soriano in the bottom of the inning to make Verlander a winner.

2012: Miguel Cabrera goes 0 for 2 in a 1 - 0 Tigers win to end the season but still winds up as Major League Baseball's first Triple Crown winner since Carl Yastrzemski in 1967. Cabrera led the American League with a .330 average, 44 homers and 139 RBI. He survives a late charge by Curtis Granderson,
