With a trip to the ALCS on the line, Tigers fans upped their game with 44,923 people showing up for Game 4 on Thursday night to re-write the short-lived record.
It was the first game of the Tigers' five-game postseason run that started later than 4:08 p.m. and fans were able to take advantage of the later start to stuff more people in and create an electric postseason environment.
The Comerica Park playoff record before this season was set on Oct. 7, 2013, in Game 3 of the ALDS when 43,973 attended the Tigers’ 6-3 loss to the Oakland Athletics. The all-time Comerica Park record is 45,280, set on July 26, 2008, in a 6-7 loss to the Chicago White Sox.
