Detroit Tigers act kindly toward grieving family with day at Comerica Park

On a recent July evening, the Detroit Tigers helped ease the pain of a family grieving the loss of a wife and mother.
Nothing can bring back Dawn Gentz after cancer took her life in April, but her widowed husband and two young boys were given a chance to lose themselves for a while at one of their favorite places, Comerica Park. The Tigers treated Mike Gentz, along with his sons and Gentz's adult cousin, to a behind-the-scenes experience at the ballpark July 30. Batting practice on the field, a visit to the Champions Club, great seats behind home plate for the game and a chance to meet several current players, manager Jim Leyland and 1968 World Series idol Willie Horton.

Call me bias, but how Detroit teams really embrace the local community is just one more reason to love them.

I wouldn't call you bias.

That's neat. All teams should do things like this all the time.
