Howard Johnson was traded to the New York Mets in the winter following the 1984 season. Hojo had just won a World Series ring with the Detroit Tigers led by Hall of Fame manager Sparky Anderson. Johnson looked at the deal as an opportunity and the rest was history. The two-time All Star was nice enough to join The Drive with Charlie & Dan on Tuesday and talk about his Mets career All Star Game experiences.

Home team fans always want to see a victory. On days like Thursday afternoon in Detroit, when the Tigers hosted the New York Yankees in the final game of the three-game series, some in attendance were there for another reason as well, history. Sometimes history has to wait as a result of the opposing team's strategy to win the game and let's just say, that made the Comerica Park faithful less than happy.

As far as I can remember, no athlete that has ever attended Ft. Anne High School has ever been as highly touted to play professional sports than Tyler Mattison.  Back when he was an eighth-grader pitching on the varsity baseball team, the Ft. Ann...

Last night was a tough night for the Oakland A's against the Detroit Tigers, but perhaps an even more difficult one for Motown's center-fielder Tyler Collins. After misplaying a ball in the 6th inning, Collins was caught on camera flipping off the booing home crowd at Comerica Park...

Masahiro Tanaka allowed three home runs for the first time in his big major league career on Sunday in the New York Yankees 12-4 loss to the Detroit Tigers. Tanaka would go on to give up a career high-tying 10 hits and seven runs in five innings...

When the New York Yankees began their Four Game series with the Detroit Tigers my hopes were a split. The Tigers have the makings of a World Series team and the biggest achievement this season was a sweep over the injured Tampa Bay Rays...

The Tigers have been basically untouchable at home so far this young season. This is even more impressive considering they are without Justin Verlander who is still out with a strained right triceps. In his place the Yankees will face Kyle Lobstein, a 25 year old lefty who earned his second big league win on April 12th against the Indians...

The Yankees finally fight their way back to .500 baseball with a sweep of the Tampa Bay Rays. However the Yankees 6-6 record will be in jeopardy when they face the scorching hot Detroit Tigers. The Tigers currently have the best record in all of baseball at 10 and 2...

Catcher James McCann was up to bat for the Detroit Tigers in a Spring Training games against the Atlanta Braves when he hit a foul ball. The foul ball hit and killed a bird. The video is a bit graphic. Watch at your own risk.     From MLive: "I saw everyone making a big commotion, and obviously people were still yelling when I stepped back into the box," McCann said. "But I h... Rea
