New York Yankees vs Detroit Tigers Live Stream: Watch Online MLB Baseball Coverage

New York Yankees vs Detroit Tigers is the big MLB game on Friday afternoon. This could be an explosive encounter between two of the best teams in the league, and will be the first time the two teams have met since the 2012 AL Championship Series. The game can be watched online through live stream (details below).

The Tigers have commenced the new season with high expectations and hopes for the coming year. They made numerous close-season changes in personnel to strengthen their roster, and improve upon the strong team they already had last season.

Torri Hunter has come into the team and is fulfilling his new role in right field. He started the season off well with four hits in the team's opening series against Minnesota, but will still want to get that first home run on the board.

The Yankees will be in better spirits now having claimed their first win of the season on Thursday night against the Red Sox. New York lost their opening two games against Boston but finally gained the win with Andy Pettitte featuring for eight innings in the 4-2 victory.
