Despite the fact that the Detroit Tigers did not make it to the playoffs, there were still plenty of moments that are worth remembering. Some of the moments turned into unforgettable wins, while others were unbelievably infuriating. Oddly, many of the moments occurred against the same team – the Houston Astros.

The 2016 Detroit Tigers had outstanding pitching, hitting, and defensive plays that were worth showcasing on several highlight reels. As expected, many moments were created by the top players like Ian Kinsler, Justin Verlander, and of course, Miguel Cabrera. But, other Tigers got involved in the hype including both catchers, James McCann and Jarrod Saltalamacchia. These moments defined the consistent inconsistency that the Tigers displayed all season.

So, as we close out 2016, let’s look back on the moments that make us all proud to be loyal fans of the Detroit Tigers.
