I would love a new Al Kaline card as a Tigers fan. Sad to see him pass away
-
That sucks, not a Tigers fan, but I remember him doing Tigers games on tv as a kid.

Proud to be a Tigers fan. You were a big reason why Mr Tiger.
Rest In Peace ..

Let’s honor this man!! He was a class act regardless of what team he was on. He represented the game as good as anyone ever has. He also helped so many other players after retirement. He meant so much to Detroit.
The good thing about this game is we can re live moments from the past and play with some of the game’s legends.
Please do something special for him SDS.
The Tigers World Series in 1968 basically saved the city. And he was our biggest star on that team.

RIP to the man with a truly legendary name.

RIP Mr. Tiger....
My dad was a die hard Tigers fan having grew up in Windsor across the river, going to many games at old Tiger stadium... Kaline was his favorite player as he was most Tigers fans in that era.
An absolute class act and incredible ball player. Rest in peace legend -
I used to go down to Lakeland for almost every Spring Training when I was in my 20s. I’ve talked Tigers baseball with him on numerous occasions. He was great to MLB fans. Always willing to sign an autograph and take pictures. My best memories were hearing him talk about the Tigers in spring though.

The guy was an absolute stud. He hit .340 as a 20 year old and led the league. Does anybody know how hard that is against MLB pitching. I was never a Tigers fan but I was a Kaline fan. RIP

Even though I did not watch him play, I became a fan of Kaline because of this game. Hopefully he’s still in the game so we can play with him one last time. Rest In Peace brother.

Tigers should get a redo on their FotF anyways, why not throw them a bone with a tribute Al Kaline card? RIP

Signed to a contract that required him to be kept on the 25-man roster for two full years due to MLB's Bonus rule, and thrived straight away when other guys in the same situation like Killebrew and Koufax took years to make up for the lack of time in the minors.

The Tigers stage 2 for TA better be him
