Tigers celebrate sweep of Red Sox by wearing Zubaz in locker room and team plane

The Detroit Tigers brought locker-room fashion back 20 years by rocking Zubaz following their sweep of the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park on Sunday. Justin Verlander posted two photos to his Instagram account with one showing Miguel Cabrera wearing a "TURN DOWN FOR WHAT" shirt.

Right-hander Joba Chamberlain tweeted a shot from the team's airplane en route to Cleveland. Chamberlain bought the entire team Zubaz on May 5, according to Gillian Van Stratt of MLive.com. The Tigers fittingly held Zubazpalooza IV at Comerica Park that Friday.

Can't blame them for having fun and bringing back these priceless SI photos to everyone's enjoyment. They just won their 11th-straight road game, lead their division by seven games and have the best record in baseball at 27-12. Thank you, Detroit.
