The baseball stadium Comerica Park is situated in Downtown Detroit. Since the Detroit Tigers’ relocation from Tiger Stadium in 2000, it has served as their home. Since Comerica was established in Detroit and had a headquarters there when the facility first opened, the stadium bears its name. The bank has a major presence in the Detroit region and relocated its headquarters to Dallas.

About Comerica Park
Since Bennett Park’s opening in 1896, the Tigers, a team that was founded in 1894, have played near the intersection of Michigan and Trumbull Avenues in Detroit’s Corktown area. New Tigers owner Frank Navin commissioned the construction of a brand-new ballpark on the same site in 1911.
The Tigers played their home games in the ballpark, which was first used in 1912 and thereafter known as Tiger Stadium, for the following 88 seasons. It was clear by the middle of the 1990s that the cherished ballpark was no longer functional and could not be further restored.
On October 29, 1997, a new ballpark that would replace Tiger Stadium officially broke ground. The scoreboard in left field was the biggest in Major League Baseball when it was first built. For the naming rights to the new ballpark, Comerica Bank agreed to pay $66 million over 30 years in December 1998. It was a component of Detroit’s downtown regeneration plan, which also involved building Ford Field next to the ballpark. On April 11, 2000, the first game was played against the Seattle Mariners.
