About David Panian
Expertise
1980-present. Please note I really don't know much about Tiger Stadium seats. Most of what I'm able to find out about them I find by doing searches on Google.com. I am also unable to appraise collectibles such as autographed balls or cards.

Question
Help! last home run in tiger stadium?   1st home run in Comerica Love ya. Kdet97@aol.com

Answer
The last home run (and the last hit) at Tiger Stadium was a grand slam by Tiger designated hitter Robert Fick in the last game, Sept. 27, 1999. It was off Kansas City's Jeff Montgomery in the eighth inning. It hit the rightfield roof and bounced back onto the field.

In case you were wondering, Fick's blast (and it was *crushed*) was home run No. 11,111 at Tiger Stadium.

The first homer at the Copa came in the fourth game there (April 14, 2000) by Juan Gonzalez (yes, as a Tiger). It was a three-run homer in the third inning. It was a line drive down the left field line.

Tony Clark hit a homer later in that game.

Thanks for asking.


David
