Comerica Park Eases Into New Logo
I noticed this on NESN yesterday. You'll see the Tigers use a Red Sox logo at the bottom left and at the bottom right of their scoreboard when Boston is up. Let's look at a close-up of each.
Left:
Old logo! (Boston in blue and in different font from Red Sox.)
Right:
New logo! (Boston in red and in same font as Red Sox, and background baseball stitches turned slightly clockwise.)
So in year three of the tweaked logo, the Tigers are aware of it, but aren't completely sold on it, I guess.
Sox @ Tigers, 7:10. If you're lucky enough to be in the 17% of the country that gets to see the game on TV tonight, congratulations. By showing six fucking games at once, Fox screws fans of twelve of the thirty teams. At least the Hartford and Western Mass. markets are getting the Sox this week (unlike last week), but Fairfield County gets the Mets. And from what I heard last week, people outside the region trying to get the Sox on mlb.tv were blacked out. This whole system needs to be overhauled. But we've been saying that for years.
Oh, and check out this article where Daniel Bard is referred to as a "soft spot." You can e-mail the author right at the top of the article. I know I did.
