DETROIT — The Detroit Tigers hope to make it three-straight seasons of playoff baseball in the Motor City and this year FOX 17 is along for the ride.
In partnership with Detroit Sportsnet, FOX 17 will air select Detroit Tigers games throughout 2026.
With 2-time reigning Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal, future Hall of Famer Justin Verlander, and rookie phenom Kevin McGonigle, the Tigers are expected to be one of the better teams in Major League Baseball this season.
Editor's note: As of May 5, the above sentence aged badly. But in our defense, batting 1 out of 3 would be a good day at the plate in the major leagues!
Our partnership began with airing the home opener on April 3 on FOX 17's sub-channel, Antenna TV.
Another nine games will air on FOX 17. The games will also be available through streaming channels on FOX 17's website and the FOX 17 Mobile App. Some connected TV models, along with Tablo, Roku, Amazon Fire, and Apple TV devices, will also allow you to catch these nine games through FOX 17's app on those platforms.
