Tigers turn on the switch June 15, 1948 The lights finally go on at Briggs Stadium, the last American League ballpark to host a night game. A crowd of 54,480 turned out to watch the Tigers play the Philadelphia Athletics. The Aís hitters must have had trouble picking up the ball in the light provided by the new $40,000 system as Hal Newhouser tossed a two-hitter in a 4-1 victory by the Tigers.

Kirk Gibson's historic home run off the Padresi Goose Gossage in the deciding game of the 1984 World Series shows how fans reacted moments after the ball took flight. Gibson, who has two of the most memorable home runs in World Series history, crushed the Gossage fastball deep into the right-field upper deck. He then showed his flair for the theatrical by rounding the bases, pumping his fists and blowing kisses to the Tiger Stadium crowd.
