Moneyball Championship, Tom Izzo, Miles Bridges, Detroit Tigers, The Olympics, Historic Baseball, and Reflection Friday. 

On today's "Current Sports with Al Martin" Al was at Aim High Sports Complex in Dimondale for the championship game of Moneyball Pan-Am. Al polishes off his coverage of the event, naming his tournament MVP's. Also, he talks the Detroit Tigers as their winning streak is over, but the momentum isn't. Al then brings in engineer Isaac Constans for his take on the Olympics and Russia's eligibility after their state-authorized doping scandal. Current State's Peter 
Whorf then is the featured Friday storyteller, bringing the story of historic baseball played in Detroit.  Lastly, 'Reflection Friday' puts a ribbon on the week, summarizing the top moments.
