Browns Take Down Tigers, 5-2
The 1946 season began for the Detroit Tigers with a loss to the St. Louis Browns at Briggs Stadium. The final score was 5-2. St. Louis pitcher Bob Feller had a fine performance. Feller, who is a four-time All-Star, went the distance for St. Louis. He gave up 2 runs on 5 hits.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Grady Hatton? The 23-year old third baseman Hatton stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the tenth inning to put St. Louis up, 3-2. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.

"Our goal is to improve each and every day," Hatton told the St. Louis Daily.
