2023 Detroit Tigers season

The 2023 Detroit Tigers season was the team's 123rd season and its 24th at Comerica Park. This was the Tigers' third season under manager A. J. Hinch. The regular season began on March 30 and ended on October 1. This was the final season for long-time Tigers slugger Miguel Cabrera, who announced he would retire from playing. The Tigers finished with a 78–84 record, second place in the AL Central behind the Minnesota Twins, and failed to make the playoffs for the ninth consecutive season.

The Detroit Tigers drew an average home attendance of 20,946 in 77 home games in the 2023 MLB season, the 25th highest in the league. The total attendance was 1,612,876.

Announcer changes

The Tigers added several new announcers this season on both television and radio. Cameron Maybin and Todd Jones were added as TV analysts for select games. Maybin was also heard on select radio broadcasts, in addition to analyst Bobby Scales and Daniella Bruce as pre-game interviewer and host. Former Tigers outfielder Andy Dirks has also filled in as analyst for some games on Tigers Radio, as he did in 2022. Carlos Guillén, Bárbaro Garbey and Mari Montes called 22 games in Spanish on WXYT 1270 AM.

This was the final season for TV play-by-play announcer Matt Shepard, who had been in that role full time since September 2018 and had previously served as backup to Mario Impemba.

The Tigers also lost a longtime announcer this season on August 7, when former Tigers catcher and color commentator Jim Price died at the age of 81. Price was a member of the 1968 World Series Champion Tigers team and had been the Tigers radio analyst since 1998. He performed the same role on TV from 1993 to 1997.
