I found this album at a vintage store: “The Year of the Tiger '68.” It’s a narrated recap of the Detroit Tigers’ 1968 season, featuring game highlights, player interviews, and radio calls. It covers their 103-win regular season, Denny McLain’s 31 victories, and the Tigers’ comeback in the World Series against the Cardinals. Mickey Lolich’s three complete-game wins, including Game 7, are a big focus. It’s a great audio snapshot of one of the most memorable years in Tigers history.
