May 28 in Tigers and mlb history:

1930 - Grover Cleveland Alexander of the Philadelphia Phillies makes his last major league appearance, giving up two hits and two runs in relief in the Boston Braves' 5 - 1 victory. The Phillies release the 43-year-old veteran a few hours after the game. In a 20-season career, Alexander posted a 373-208 record with 2,198 strikeouts and a 2.56 ERA. He will be inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1938.

1956 - Pittsburgh Pirates first baseman Dale Long hits a home run in his eighth consecutive game, setting a major league record. This mark will be later tied by Don Mattingly and Ken Griffey, Jr.

1957 - With a unanimous vote, National League owners grant permission to both the Dodgers and Giants to relocate their clubs to the West Coast if they so desire.

1968 - American League owners agree to divide the circuit into two divisions and reduce its schedule to 156 games. The following divisional alignment is set for the 1969 season: Eastern Division: Baltimore Orioles,Boston Red Sox, Cleveland Indians, Detroit Tigers, New York Yankees,Washington Senators. Western Division: California Angels, Chicago White Sox, Kansas City Royals, Minnesota Twins, Oakland Athletics, Seattle Pilots.

1982 - Lou Whitaker has the first of nine career multi-home run games.

1995 - At Tiger Stadium, the Chicago White Sox (five) and Detroit Tigers (seven) combine to set a major-league record 12 home runs, with Chicago winning the 14 - 12 slugfest.

2010: The Tigers fail to take advantage of a three-home run performance by Miguel Cabrera, falling, 5 - 4, to Ben Sheets and the Oakland Athletics. Reliever Ryan Perry is the loser.
