DETROIT — Jim Leyland’s No. 10 was retired by the Detroit Tigers, putting the Hall of Fame manager’s name and number in white on a brick wall next to World Series winner Sparky Anderson.
“When I look out on that wall and see my name with the Tiger greats, it’s hard to believe,” Leyland said Saturday night during a pregame ceremony before Detroit played the Kansas City Royals.
Leyland arrived for the on-field presentation after a slow ride in a white Corvette, giving him a chance to wave to fans from the foul pole in right to Detroit’s dugout along the third base line.
