Detroit Tigers, Miguel Cabrera, AL Wild Card Race, Brad Ausmus,  Lee Vickers, High School Football and Throwback Thursday.

On today's "Current Sports with Al Martin" the Detroit Tigers sure aren't letting the rain dampen the end of the season. Al and engineer Isaac Constans break down what went down last night in a shortened game versus the Cleveland Indians. Just one game back of a wild card spot, is it time to start penciling the Tigers in? Al and Isaac also answer the underlying current of the Tigers' playoff push in bringing up the latest mumbling regarding the job security of manager Brad Ausmus. Then, Lee Vickers returns after a long break to the Current Sports airwaves. The head football coach at Baldwin High School and the founder of Varsity Nation talks about the struggles of coaching a team up north. Finally, it's your weekly dose of 'Throwback Thursday' to top off today's program.
