DETROIT \u2013 A Detroit Tigers TV personality who has been with their broadcast partners for 25 years is no longer going to be a part of broadcasts after he says his position was eliminated.<\/p>\n

Mickey York shared the news Tuesday on X<\/a>. He said the Tigers are going in a different direction with their broadcasts, and he will no longer be part of the show.<\/p>\n

York has been a staple of Tigers pregame and postgame shows throughout the years, on Fox Sports Detroit, Bally Sports Detroit, and FanDuel Sports Network. He was employed by the networks, and not the Tigers.<\/p>\n

The Tigers are currently off to one of their best starts in franchise history. At 22-13, they own the best record in the American League and a 1.5-game lead in the AL Central.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s his full thread from X:<\/p>\n

A thread: Some personal news: After 25 years with Fox\/Bally\/FanDuel Sports Network my position has been eliminated. The Detroit Tigers are going in a different direction with their broadcasts and regretfully I will no longer be a part of those productions. I\u2019m not sure what\u2019s next.<\/p>\n

I hope I haven\u2019t done my last show in Detroit, but for now I would like to say thanks for allowing me into your homes and sporting lives. As a sports crazy kid growing up in the suburbs of Detroit it\u2019s been an opportunity beyond my wildest dreams and I never took it for granted.<\/p>\n

I guess I\u2019m entering free agency. If, for whatever reason, you find yourself missing me and you\u2019re into cars you can find me at http:\/\/cruisnmedia.com<\/a>. Hope to see you soon and from the bottom of my heart. Thanks for watching, Good night, kids!<\/p>\n
