The Detroit Tigers brought their annual winter caravan through Livonia last week, and helped the city mark a special occasion in the process.
Several Tigers players and various members of the Tigers organization were at the fire department headquarters to deliver a present to Fire Chief Shadd Whitehead.
As the Livonia Fire Department marks its 75th year, Tigers second baseman Ian Kinsler and the other Tigers presented Whitehead, the department’s longtime chief, with a framed No. 75 Detroit Tigers jersey. The Tigers also presented the department with a fire helmet signed by all the Tigers players, coaches and staffers present that day.
“It was a special moment,” Whitehead said.
Whitehead said the fire department will mark the anniversary with a special event near the end of the summer. Details were still being worked out.
