The 64-year-old Detroit Tigers manager shows off his pecs to the delight of one really annoying lady. (Activate mute buttons.) Luckily, the camera was miles away from the rippling manflesh so you're spared from the hi-def goodness. [Detroit4Lyfe] More »

It would appear that Jim Leyland has a body double in Detroit, but then, any middle-aged, gray-haired dude with sunlasses, a Tigers hat and a mustache will probably end up looking like Jim Leyland. [Detroit 4 Lyfe] More »
