A Birmingham, AL native, Forge was a catcher for the Detroit Stars and recently launched the Forge the Future Foundation to support Birmingham-area youth. A Detroit, MI native, Teasley played for the New York Cubans, was a long-time coach & educator in the Detroit Public Schools and is in the Wayne State University Athletics Hall of Fame.

Mickey Lolich’s legacy, on and off the field, will forever be cherished. 💙🧡

We are saddened by the passing of three-time All-Star and 1968 World Series MVP Mickey Lolich. Lolich spent 13 of his 16 Major League seasons with the Tigers, while also pitching for the Mets and Padres. In 1968, Lolich hurled 3 complete game victories against St. Louis in the World Series to lead Detroit back from a 3-1 deficit and win the championship in seven games. His finest season came in 1971 when he led the American League in wins (25), starts (49), complete games (29), innings pitched (376), and strikeouts (308), while finishing second in AL Cy Young voting. Lolich won 217 career games and his 2,832 career strikeouts are 5th all-time among left-handed pitchers behind only Randy Johnson, Steve Carlton, CC Sabathia, and Clayton Kershaw. Lolich was 85 years old.

The Tigers are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Mickey Lolich and we extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones. One of the finest pitchers in franchise history, Lolich was a three-time All-Star who pitched for Detroit for 13 seasons and holds several Tigers team records. He was a member of the 1968 World Series Champion Tigers team, earning World Series MVP honors after posting a 3-0 record with a 1.67 ERA. Lolich will be remembered as one of the most durable and dominant left-handed pitchers of his era and a cornerstone of Detroit’s pitching staff for more than a decade.
