October 5 in Tigers and mlb history:

1908: Chicago White Sox pitcher Ed Walsh tops the Detroit Tigers, 6 - 1, for his 40th victory and forces the American League pennant race to the final day. Detroit's 24-game winner Ed Summers takes the loss.

1911 - The National Commission sells motion picture rights to the World Series for $3,500. When the players demand a share of it, the Commission cancels the deal.

July 3 ? Miguel Cabrera injures his left calf.

The Detroit slugger would not play again until Aug. 14, and the team he came back to looked far different than the one he left. The Tigers went 15-20 in the interim and were in bad enough shape at the deadline that they traded stars David Price and Yoenis Cespedes. Price led Toronto to the AL East title, and Cespedes played a huge role for the New York Mets in their NL East championship.

Shortly after the deadline, the Tigers let general manager Dave Dombrowski go. He?s now running things in Boston, so the butterfly effect from Cabrera?s injury could last awhile.
