“The city of Detroit has rallied behind the Tigers throughout the season and especially during this incredible run in August and September,” said Asia Gholston, Vice President of Marketing for the Tigers. “Hosting a Watch Party is another way to bring our incredible fan base and community together to celebrate the Tigers’ return to the postseason.”

The Comerica Landing and Pitchers Pub will be activated during the Watch Party, with select concession and retail locations also open for Tigers fans, including postseason-themed merchandise.
