Midway through the season the Tigers would hire Sparky Anderson to lead the young Tigers into battle on the field. Anderson who was recently fired by the Reds made name for himself as the manger of"The Big Red Machine"" which dominated the National League for much of the 70's winning 2 World Series and 4 Pennants. Under Anderson the Tigers would go on to finish in 5th place with an 85-76 record."
